Whopper Cake

The kids and I read a silly picture book recently called Whopper Cake.  In short, it's about a man who makes a giant cake in the bed of his old pick up truck.

It was a fun read and best of all there was a recipe in the back to make our own Whopper Cake.  No need for a pickup truck, a 9X13 pan did the job.  The kiddos were super excited to give it a try.  Joy and Life helped me mix up the batter and then all four made sure that the bowl was properly cleaned.

Asked took on the job of making sure the cake was baking.  

 

Joy and Life joined the cake vigil.  

 

The cake turned out great!  We didn't even frost it the kids added some whipped cream and m&m's to theirs.  It was moist and fluffy and not too dense.  We like that around here.  Yum!  We coppied the recipe so we can make it again.
