MOM'S DREAMY CHOCOLATE CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• 2. Prepare a 9x13x2-inch pan or for sheet cake a 16x11x1-inch, pan with 'Baker's Joy' non-stick cooking spray (my suggestion) or grease and flour pans the old-fashioned way.

• 7. FROSTING: Combine butter, cocoa, and milk in a saucepan. Heat slowly and bring to boil.
• 8. Add remaining ingredients; beat well.
• 9. Spread over warm cake.

MOM'S APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• Peel, core and slice apples or wash, pit and half plums.
• Preheat oven to 350 ° F.
• Keep 1 tablespoon of the margarine and two tablespoons sugar.
• Knead flour, the rest of the margarine and sugar, egg, salt and baking powder until you get a soft dough.
• Spread 2/3 of the dough onto a well greased or paper lined baking tray.
• Layer with sliced apples or halved plums (they have to overlap).
• Mix remaining 1/3 of the dough with 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon margarine, add vanilla and / or cinnamon to taste and sprinkle over apples.
• Bake at 350 ° for about 35 minutes.
• Attention: This cake easily burns - so start watching it closely after half the baking time!
• Slice while still warm and let cool completely on a wire rack. Or serve warm with vanilla ice cream!

SIMPLE AND DELICIOUS SPONGE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8 inch cake pan and line with a circle of parchment paper.
• Beat the margarine and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the margarine mixture before adding the next. Fold in the flour until only small lumps remain; pour into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
