Birthday Pound Cake!

Sweet things are nice, birthday girls who are nice get nice sweet things. nice nice nice! Colleen is awesome, so I made her some pound cake, with a li'l help from Betty Crocker. This is a really easy way to add a little extra something to cake mix...

 

This is the finished pound cake, marbleized with jam and topped with lemon glaze, next to the cookbook I didn't have to use. Take that suckas!

Step 1: Assemble the ingredients:

Step 2: Grease (with Crisco or other lard type substance) and flour the pan. I usually am a Pam person, it's quick and easy, but this worked really really well. The pound cake came right out of the pan and literally NOTHING stuck. 

Step 3: Follow the directions on the back of the box... mix the mix, water and two eggs. Do it next to a candle for dramatic effect...

Cooking with katherine: NOW WITH JESUS!

 Step 4: Start to pour the batter into your greased pan, put about 1/3 in the pan and use a spoon to plop some dollops of jelly in there. Add another 1/3... rinse and repeat. Pour the last of the batter on top and use a fork to swirl the jam around.

Step 5: BAKE IT!

(allow to cool)

Step 6: Make the lemon glaze. In a small bowl mix about 1/2 cup of powdered sugar with a few tsp. of lemon juice. Poke holes with a fork into the top of the cake and drizzle it alllll over.
