oops

I thought to include recipes with almost every post but that last one just didn't lend itself to anything particularly yummy.

So, you get a random recipe from the past week.

SECRET CHOCOLATE CAKE

Shhhhh. Don't tell the kids what's in it and they'll never know. You can just sit back, smug, knowing that it's secretly (kinda) good for them (comparatively) while they know that it's really good. :o)

1pkg chocolate cake mix
1-2 eggs
1 can (15oz) pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix)
1T oil (optional; i never do but you can)
1t cinnamon (optional but good)

mix all for 3 minutes to fluffy
pour into Pammed 13x9 pan
bake for 30-35 minutes at 350

dust with powdered sugar (looks pretty and is no-fat), serve with lots of really-cold white milk (kids) or coffee/tea (big people)

also works well with spice cake mix..or yellow cake mix... (add additional spices as desired, and raisins?)
