Baking makes me happy

Stresses hit us all.  Me too.  When I feel stressed I bake. I bake bread, cookies or cake.  This weekend it was cake.

I mentioned to the brother I was thinking of making a Mint Black Magic Cake he DARED me to make it!  Of course, it was on!

The recipe for Black Magic Cake is on this blog in March of 2012. All I did was add a teaspoon of mint extract to both the batter and the icing.  I tried to pipe rosetts on top but my cheapo piping bags burst. Ratzumfratzum!

Still not too bad! Not too bad at all!
