I know... it's been a year since my last blog post... I am a big slacker... but alas, I have not forgotten you!

Lately my motto has been... if I can make it and I have the stuff (or just need one thing) I am going to make it. Lately by creations have included braciole (italian beef rolls with a filling), Mediterranean barley salad with feta and basil pesto, some cakes and cookies as well.

Tonight I made one of my favorites, Yellow Vanilla Cake with Chocolate Icing.

I grew up with this as one of my staple birthday cakes, I still love it. However, I have graduated from the box mix and jared frosting (I have for some time). this is one of my favorite cake recipes to get that perfect fluffy yellow cake with homemade taste. I get it from America's Test Kitchen!

It requires a little extra effort, but not much at all. The results are deliciously worth it.
