October is here, which means that you’re getting ready to stock up on this year’s supply of mini candy bars and sweets for neighborhood trick-or-treaters. After Halloween is over, your kids will probably grab the leftover treats and devour them along with their own hoard of candy (at least that’s what my brother and I used to do). There’s no doubt that kids love to eat sweet treats, so why not show them how to make them, too? If you’re interested in trying an original dessert this Halloween, follow these easy tips to bake delicious pumpkin cake.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt cake pan.
3. Beat Bisquick, sugar, brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter, cinnamon, cloves, ginger
, nutmeg, milk, eggs and pumpkin in large mixer bowl on low speed, scraping bowl several times, for 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally, for three minutes.
4. Spread batter in pan. Bake until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool 10 minutes.
5. Remove from pan. Cool completely. Drizzle with glaze.
6. For glaze, heat 1/3 cup butter over medium heat until delicate brown. Real butter works best for this. Blend in powdered sugar and vanilla. Stir in enough hot water to make proper consistency for drizzling over cake, usually about 2 to 3 tablespoons.
