==The Perfect Cake==
''This is just the easiest recipe to make and I've never had a problem with it. It's great for little ones as it's an all-in-one and they can have a big bowl and stir, while you add the ingredients. When they've got tired stick it in the Kitchenaid (or equivalent) and whip it up ready for cooking. You can double the ingredients to make a nice giant cake for a big party and you can use it for cupcakes too. Nb if the dough looks a bit stiff, add a little milk.''
