Award Winning Pie Recipes

groovy cake A groovy, tie-dye cake — with colors inside and out — would be fun for an end-of-the-summer party! This cake is a showstopper, but actually just uses a basic marbling technique. You tint four bowls of the batter different colors, put drops of the colored batter on top of the white batter in the cake pan and pull a knife through it, which gives it the “groovy” look. The frosting is simple, too, just use gel tubes to make hexagon shapes and then a pull a toothpick through them, starting in the center. Skittles around the bottom make it extra colorful! If you are planning on having a party, a fun idea would be to tie Dye shirts and then serve this cake. Groovy Cake 1 box (18.25 oz.) white cake mix 3 whole eggs 1/3 cup vegetable oil 1 cup buttermilk Red, blue, green and yellow food coloring 2 (12 ounce) cans whipped vanilla frosting Assorted colors decorating gel tubes ½ cup Skittles 2 8-inch round cake pans 1. 2. 3.

makes » how to make a rainbow cake! Aaannnndddd, she’s back! So I did mention something about health and/or diet food in my last post, and while this recipe is the latter, it is most certainly not to be confused with the former. I posted about my rainbow cake here, and it got a lot of traffic on over to my livejournal, and everyone wanted the “recipe.” The cool thing is that if you’re making something so distractingly colourful, people will think it’s delicious no matter what. This presents me with the option to use an old Weight Watchers trick—the one-point cupcake. This cake is suitable for many occasions: A child’s birthdayYour mom’s birthdayComing out to your conservative parents If you’re a lesbian, they’ll be thrilled that you won’t be forgoing your feminine kitchen duties.If you’re the kind of gay dude who makes cakes for your parents, they were probably on to you anyway.Coming out to your conservative parents on your mother’s birthdayYour friend’s jam band CD release party Okay, on with the ingredients. That’s all.

Cookie Brownie Pie You don't need anything too fancy for this. Cookie dough: homemade or from the store (I had a 30oz. package and did not use it all for two pies)Brownie mix: (1 box of 19.4oz. was enough for two pies)Caramel: I ended up using Dulce de Leche which was great, but expensive (1lb. and didn't use it all for one pie)Pie Pans : 2 or you can use the same one twice (Mine is 7 inches in diameter on the bottom) (Some of my ingredients were for two pies because I experimented first and failed which you will see in the last step.)
