Chocolate Cake Doughnuts

I am not much for messing with deep frying but my husband loves doughnuts and every once and a while I feel guilty that my son can’t go to Tim Horton’s and have a doughnut so I make some. This is another doughnut recipe, this time a cake doughnut recipe. My other doughnut recipe is…

Best White Cake

I wanted another white cake recipe to have with fresh berries but this time I wanted to use real butter. This can be difficult when making a white cake as the butter tends to make things crumbly. So, I added in some cream cheese to help keep the cake together and the flavor of course…
