New Culinary Invention: Man-Cake

So I haven't been around for awhile, I've been busy not making time for things like everyone else, but a couple of weeks ago a rare piece of video was shot capturing the birth of a new intellectual highlight for us males (uh, what ever that means). It's really the aftermath of a cooking endeavor, gone terribly right depending on how you look at it. I was trying to bake a cake, a quadruple layer cake no less, on Easter Sunday since no one else was cooking anything. It was already quadruple layered so one added innovation was that it was also to be low-fat, by means of substituting something for the 4 eggs and 2 cups of oil that were required. Well, here is what I can up with...



Want to indulge in this delight... I can't guarantee that yours will look as good as mine but it will definitely cure you of any chocolate cravings.

Items Needed:

2 boxes of extra moist devil's food cake;
2 free-range brown chicken eggs;
6 tablespoons of low-fat mayonnaise;
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil;
1 can of whipped chocolate frosting to taste;

Instructions:

Combine ingredients according to box directions replacing eggs and oil with the low-fat mayonnaise. Beat thoroughly...Pour batter into circular pans and bake... make sure you get good breakage by trying to empty pans as carefully as possible... enjoy!
