How adorable right?? I saw these on pintrest:
So I thought um easy I can do this. I showed hubs and he said he would like to eat one so of course I want to make them for him.
I will admit I'm not the best cook/baker. One time I made an angel food cake with tartar sauce instead of creme of tartar, yuck! With that being said I always give my best effort, I had no idea creme of tartar and tartar sauce were different?!?!
Since this lovely jar-cake looks pretty self explanatory I just tried it and here's what happened:
First I went and bought these adorable jars that I'm thinking are better for jam or jelly...
I used this cake mix...
and got to werk...
with my adorable mixer that my momma bought for me :)
I mixed the neon food colors in the batter.
And then put them in the jars...
If you put in too much and put them on the bottom shelf this is what will happen...
haha...
a burnt over-flow…yuckkkkk
but like I said I always give it my best effort so I tried again and put in a little less...
aren't the colors amazing??
making sure they are cooked ;) kinda look like colorful boogers, you're welcome.
they still over flowed!
WAH!
the last batch I tried came out best, 3rd times the charm :)
colorful and not over flowed
worst to best
spoon the top off,
put a little frosting on it and wah-la!
I later learned you are supposed to put water in a pan and put the jars in that and bake…I should have read directions, silly me!
I'll let you know if hubs likes them :)
