Cake!

---- IMAGE REMOVED because photobucket.com no longer allows embedded images ----

Hot milk cake with cream cheese icing,
All baked up, ready for slicing.
No boxed mix, this is all from scratch,
Homemade batter in one big batch.

Eggs and milk and sugar and flour,
Just mixin' it up took me an hour.
Baking powder and vanilla,
Please turn the oven on will ya'?

Half an hour to bake it then,
Set on the rack to cool again.
That aroma that fills the air,
Can't resist it's ev'rywhere.

Cream cheese and butter, creamed up good,
Powdered sugar sift, just like it should.
Then some cocoa, vanilla too,
Stir it a while and mix it through.

Plate the cake and frost with care,
Made quite enough with some to spare.
The cake is made, that was my goal,
Just need someone to lick the bowl.

About this poem:
Yeah, it is rather flattish. That's because I don't own an eight inch cake pan. Used a ten inch skillet, hillbilly style! :D

It looks good. I never ever heard of anyone making a cake in a skillet. It's a neat shape. Cool poem.
