Classic Yellow Cake with Chocolate Fudge Marshmallow Frosting
I admit it. I look down on cake mixes. I always think to myself, I have everything I need in my cupboard to make this mix so I should just make it from scratch. Despite this grocery aisle snobbiness, the hard truth remains that I don't always have time to make a cake from scratch. Enter Ann Byrn's The Cake Mix Doctor Returns! I had a friend's birthday coming up and while I wanted to make a cake, I really wanted to spend more time making the apartment look nice for her than I did slaving over the stove, so I went the time-economical route. Byrn's description of the "Classic Yellow Cake with Chocolate Fudge Marshmallow Frosting" as the most desired birthday cake in her household made it a natural choice for the upcoming celebration. Let's dive into the fudginess, shall we?
