Cake Suggestions
Wife is almost 16 weeks pregnant and is craving a moist cake. Says she doesn’t want a store bought cake mix but something homemade. This forum hasn’t let me down yet. Any ideas or recipes you guys recommend? I appreciate the feedback. I probably won’t cook it on the egg but in the oven instead.

Try this one. Trust me. I’m not even big on lemon and this is one of my absolute favourite desserts.

My wife makes an incredibly moist cake in a pan called a poke cake. Lots of options for the stuff you pour in the poked holes, but we like pureed strawberries mixed with sweetened condensed milk best. It is good with whipped cream topping like a strawberry short cake or with a cream cheese icing as well.
Just google "poke cake." Good stuff and very moist and tasty.

Pineapple upside down cake in a cast iron skillet! I use boxed cake mix and add the juice from the canned pineapple. Butter, brown sugar .. Oh yeah~ John - https://www.instagram.com/hoosier_egger
