Monday we returned from a fun filled vacation in Colorado. Mike's sister Katie is very inventive in the kitchen. We ate lots of raspberries which were growing abundantly in her garden. She fed us homemade jellies, fruit salsas, the first of their tomato crop, and more. When more company was coming she threw a cake in the microwave, yes the microwave. I admit that I have over-looked this method of baking for the most part. But for summer cooking, what a great alternative! She used one of the silicone bundt type pans, and it really worked slick! Here is Katies recipe for cake, she said you can use any flavors of mix or fillings you want. Experiment!!
Katie's Kake
1 yellow cake mix
3 eggs
1 can pie filling (this one was peach)
fresh peach chopped
Mix all by hand and bake in the microwave for 15 min. Use a toothpick to test if it's done a little ahead of time. I think she said to let it set for about 5-10 minutes before turning it out onto a plate. She served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream while it was still warm, mmm-mmm.
