everyday chocolate cake and baked french toast

Everyday Chocolate Cake:

I pretty much made this one exactly as she stated-- I even pulled out my electric hand mixer for this to really cream the butter and sugar together. Would I ever make it again? Probably not. I always find chocolate cake to be too dry, and this one was no exception.





Baked French Toast

My changes: I added in sliced almonds and golden raisins, didn't use any booze and added 1.5 tsp of vanilla extract. I put extra cinnamon between layers. It came out great! In the future I would try pecans instead of sliced almonds or may even sliced bananas.
