Cooking

Today i experimented with cooking. I made a cake. here is the recipe:


Eirene's Cup Cake

1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
1 cup butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg

2 tsp baking powder

I preheated the oven to 350 degrees F, mixed all the ingredients in one medium sized bowl. Then, I poured it into a 8x8 pan,. and baked it for 20 min, til it was golden brown.

How did it turn out? Well, at first, I thought the cake was uncooked, because there was melted butter on the bottom of the pan and the batter was a bit gooey. It more like a pudding than a cake. It was very good, though, I can tell you that!

However, if you want to make the cake, I would suggest some minor changes:

- Only put in 1/4 cup butter, instead of 1 whole cup
- Or, if you want some lemon flavor, put in 1 tsp lemon juice
- And you should probably add 1 more egg. Also, beat the eggs before you put them in. I didn't do this.

If you want to make it a bit healthy, instead of putting in white flour, put in wheat flour.

I hope you enjoy it! MY family did. My sister says she wants me to make this for her next birthday with the whole cup of butter, though. She LOVES butter. I think she should even just have a butter birthday, she loves butter so much!

Let me know if you make it, and if you like it.
