My Cake Making Obsession

So I kinda have a baking obsession but especially cakes. I  love making cakes and experimenting with them. I have had many epic fails but I have had a few successful cakes. :) I made this chocolate cake for John's 8th birthday. 

 It turned out beautifully 

The Recipe

•  2 cups all purpose flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 3/4 cup dairy sour cream
• 1/4 cup of butter
• 1 cup of water
• 1 1/4 teaspoons of baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla 
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 
• 2 eggs
• 4 squares (1 ounce each) unsweetened chocolate melted    

Then came the frosting, I  have tried many times to make good frosting but I have had more fails then I have had successes. This frosting, however, turned out amazing :) 

The Recipe

• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 cup melted semi-sweet chocolate chips 
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 3 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar  

Tada 

I added Hersey's Chocolate Syrup on top for decoration 

Happy Birthday Boy!!!

He liked it

Banana Cake

 I made banana cake out of old bananas that we had. I didn't like it because I am not a big banana fan but everyone else did. :)

I forgot the recipe...sorry

 I made frosting for it as well but I lost the recipe for it too. Again sorry.

Tada 

And that is my baking obsession!
