With the extra frosting from the baby shower, I had to make some type of frosted dessert. I am not a fan of frosted brownies, or frosted cookies (with the notable exception of gingerbread). The end result was I decided to make myself a small pound cake style cake to compliment the frosting.

RECIPE: Frost Me Cake
Makes 6 Servings

SUPPLIES NEEDED:
Kitchen Aid Mixer
Oven set to 325 degrees
9 in Round Cake Pan

INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 C Flour
3 Eggs
1/2 Cup Margarine
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/4 Cup Milk
1 t Almond Extract
1 t Nutmeg
1 t Baking Powder
Pinch of Salt

DIRECTIONS:
1) Cream together the margarine, sugar, and extract.
2) Beat in the three eggs and the milk.
3) Slowly beat in the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg until a very thick batter is formed.
4) Grease and flour the cake pan, and then pour in batter.
5) Bake for 30- 40 minutes until slightly browned and toothpick comes out clean.
6) Cool completely before frosting.

If you like a heavy, dense cake then you need to try this cake. It balances the sweetness of the frosting out perfectly, so you won’t feel like you over indulged your sweet tooth.
