the cake i made...

so we decided last night to have our parental units over.  it seemed like a bit much to do dinner for everyone, so we did dessert instead.  i made this cake:














don't think i'm disgusting, but it's a chocolate mayonnaise cake.  it sounds sick, but you don't add as many eggs and no oil or butter, just mayonnaise.  or light mayonnaise in my case.  i substituted some almond extract for part of the vanilla and made an almond cream cheese icing.  still trying to wean out sugar... but it was real good...
