All in One Cake Mixture

Category: Cakes and Bakes

Just like the name, all the ingredients are added at once. This is great if you need a cake in a hurry - if you don't have time to let it cool sprinkle icing sugar on top and serve warm. If it is cool, split in half and fill with chocolate butter cream icing, then spread some more on top.
