Ok, if you have nothing to do for the next 10 minutes, you can download this .mpg file (UnderBridge.mpg) of us driving under the Golden Gate Bridge while I'm singing Comanche. It's 15 seconds long and a complete waste of time.
I know that word Cake as used for the band name is a verb, but I can't help but include my favorite cake recipe here.
Kentucky Butter Rum Cake
Cream 2 cups of sugar and 1 cup butter. Add 4 eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each.
Beat in 1.5 teaspoons of salt, 1 teaspoon baking powder and .5 teaspoon of baking powder.
Measure 1 cup buttermilk and add 2 tablespoons vanilla, keep aside (don't add to batter yet).
Add three cups of flour, one at a time to batter, alternating with the buttermilk (so, 1
cup flour, .5 cup buttermilk, 1 cup flour, .5 cup buttermilk and end with 1 cup flour). Beat
well after each addition. Alternating like this improves the texture.
Pour batter in greased bundt pan (I use a spray called "Baker's Joy" - great stuff) and
bake for 55-70 minutes in a 350 degree oven, until toothpick comes out clean. Remove from
oven, but leave cake in pan and prick hot cake 40-50 times with a long-timed fork or a
chopstick. Pour hot butter sauce over cake (recipe below) and let rest for 5 minutes. Turn
onto serving plate and dust with a generous layer of powdered sugar. This cake gets even
better if you wait a day before eating it.
Hot Butter Sauce
In small saucepan, melt .33 cup of butter then add 3 tablespoons of water, 1 teaspoons of
vanilla and .75 cup of sugar. When sugar dissolves, remove from heat and add 3 tablespoons
of light rum.
