Booger Schmooger Wooger

   

Whenever I see a Bunt Cake I always think of the movie “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”. I have an overwhelming erg to put a potted plant in the center of it. That or I start saying “bunT… bunT”   and that just confuses the dog…she tilts her head and looks at me like I am talking to her because usually the only time I start repeating words is when I’m talking to her… “sit…sit” “go potty…go potty” “who's a booger schmooger wooger” ok so those weren’t really the same words being repeated, but I’m pretty sure to her it all sounds the same.

Here is a recipe for Lemon Poppy Seed Bunt Cake with Lemon Glaze…If you recall I had a little hissy fit the other day because every recipe called for a yellow cake mix…and well, I just don’t roll like that. So, I mixed up a few recipes and came up with this little cake. It worked out pretty well, but the cake is not very tall like most bunts. It only fills up about ¾ of the pan…but that’s ok as it is a heavy cake and you won’t want a very big piece.

-Shelly

6 Tablespoons unsalted butter

1/4 cup superfine sugar (in a "Huggy Bear" voice…thank you Scott!)

4 egg yolks

1 cups sifted flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 Tablespoons poppy seeds

1/3 cup milk

2 Tablespoons grated lemon peel

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Prep your bunT pan with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350

Mix your butter and sugar till well blended, add the egg yolks 1 at a time and mix well.

In a separate bowl sift together your flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add to your butter mixture and blend well, add poppy seeds, milk, vanilla and lemon peel.

Bake for 35-40 minutes or till golden brown on the top.

For the Glaze mix

2 tablespoons real lemon juice

About 1 cup confectioners' sugar…you can play with this to get it how you like…think or thin. I waited till the cake cooled a bit to put the glaze on.

The cake looks GOOD and that puppy is too much. I want to give kisses right on that sweet little face!

She is a sweet baby...and she WILL kiss you back if you let her!!! Trust me...it is pretty nasty if she gets you in the mouth! haha

Haha! I have a ginormous Golden Retriever, so nasty kisses with her HUGE tongue are commonplace.
