Looks familiar, huh? Except on the inside. When I asked the girl celebrating her nameday today if she wanted another Jell-O poke cake she said, "I didn't really like it very much, but it was pretty!" She thinks this one is pretty too! It has a layer of blueberry preserves in the middle and white buttercream frosting. I wanted to make some white chocolate cream cheese frosting but didn't have white chocolate. Or cream cheese. Can you tell it's time to restock the pantry? The cake is a recipe adapted from the Cake Mix Doctor:
Bride's Cake
1 white cake mix
3 Tbl. half and half plus enough 1% milk to equal 1 C.
1 stick butter, melted
3 large eggs
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Mix on low for 60 seconds. Mix at medium speed for two minutes. Bake according to cake mix package directions.

~God calls each one by name (Cf. Is 43:1; Jn 10:3). Everyone's name is sacred. The name is the icon of the person. It demands respect as a sign of the dignity of the one who bears it. (#2158, Catechism of the Catholic Church).
Beautiful! We're having Blueberry Cream Pie.
ReplyDeleteBarbara,
ReplyDeleteI wish my kids liked blueberries because I would love to do more with them. I did put a layer of blueberry preserves in the middle of the cake. I figured they could eat around that if they didn't like it! Can't wait to see your Blueberry Cream Pie!
Very nice. Looks delicious.
