Cake mixes?!!!


Okay, I admit I am usually quite skeptical about using cake mixes because 1) I think it's not enough fun, not enough of a challenge and 2) it may not turn out nice! Either too bland or too sweet or something like that!

However, on Thursday night we stopped by Woolworths, and I was browsing through the cake section! I wanted to make choc chip cookies, but decided that I would feel too guilty if I spent too much time in the kitchen when I really should be doing a lot of other things... ie study, assignment, etc etc! Then these very attractive cadbury boxes caught my eye! My 2 above hesitations immediately accompanied it!!!

I decided yes to "cheat bake" so that I could have a little bit of fun in the kitchen and yet not take TOO much time...... so I bought the Cadbury Choc Swirl Cake mix!

Verdict: Simple to make, so if you like a challenge in the kitchen, there is absolutely NONE, but it turned out well! Yay! Light, spongy and tasty, and the frosting was really yummy too! :) So do give this a go, it's pretty good value @ $4 a box, and simple to make and tasty!

My colleagues enjoyed it, so it was all worth it! :)

Any pangs of guilt after your 'cheat bake'? :p
