I made this for my nephews birthday yesterday and it was a big hit !! I always add a heaping tablespoon of cake flour to any box of cake mix because I want the cake to rise higher like they used to before the boxes shrank down from the 18 ounces they used to be !
I have a son who is about to be 22 soon and has Downs and just loves hot cocoa to pieces... didn't know this could be done and how... thanks for sharing.. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone 🙏
Looks delicious and easy to assemble! 😋 Yummy! Your husband is so funny lingering around trying to lick the beaters and bowl...... he’s like a little kid waiting for the goodies!
My mother, who was also a Catherine, taught us to "doctor " cake mixes as you do. She was a caterer. I love watching you.💖 My mama would have loved this one. 💖💖💖
I add prepared cooled coffee instead of water to chocolate cake & brownie box mixes. It boosts the chocolate flavor. Spiced tea works for spice cakes, etc. Can't wait to try the milk and melted butter for "bakery style." Yum.
Your recipes are amazing, and so easy and simple to make. I love that you tell us the exact amount, size or weight of each ingredient you are using, not just like "1 envelope", or "1 box", etc., and also let us know what we can use as a replacement. For me that is very important. I just found you and you became my favorite!
My wife is a subscriber, and after watching this together, I decided to give it a go myself. I have never baked a cake in my life and OMG, this was spectacular!! I followed your directions and it was as easy as pie (I mean cake) :). Thanks a bunch for sharing this recipe!
Lmao lol lol 😂 omg how cute is she in the beginning when she throws the apples to the side that made me laugh so hard and I had a TERRRRRRIBLE day and she just totally made the day worth living lol! ❤️ idk how I found this channel but it’s something I really needed
Catherine, I appreciate that your recipes are so easy but scrumpdillyicious. I was waiting for hubby's taste test approval that clinched it for me! ;) TY again.
I am living vicariously through you at this time because I am on a keto diet and there’s No cake for me right now but when I can I know exactly where to come for some of the easiest most delicious (not to mention how well you walk us through them) recipes I have ever seen. I am so glad you popped up on my feed. Your cameraman sure loves that magic you make in the kitchen too. His comments show appreciation for your creations hahaha it’s great.
With all of the really time consuming and involved recipes that I do every holiday season, it's a pleasure to find such a simple recipe for something so good. I added some malt powder to the topping - delicious!!
I made this for Christmas day and it was a huge hit. I didn't have the fudge topping so I put Hershey syrup on and swirled it in. My granddaughter told me "Gran you make the best cakes". All because of you!! Thank you
This cake looks so good. You and your husband make me laugh. You're so cute together. My younger sister told me she had taken a heaping tablespoon full of chocolate drink mix into her mouth. She didn't realize that it baking chocolate.😳😩 Had a hard time getting the taste of it out of her mouth. We laugh so much about the crazy stuff we used to do. TYSM for the recipe!!!
I made this for dessert for Thanksgiving and it was amazing!!! My son loved it so much, that he asked that I make another one which I finished about an hour ago. :) I really am loving your channel!! Thank you for sharing all of the yumminess!
Thought I’d let you know I made it for thanksgiving. My grandchildren said it’s the best dessert I have ever made!!!! That’s the highest of praise. So thank you so much ☺️
Love you guys you guys are so adorable I love that he’s right there with you watching you I just love it I love you too!!!!I like that he’s in the background and he asks to lick the spoon o I love you guys!!!
🥰 Made this for my 8yr old granddaughter who loves hot cocoa. It was super yummy 😋 Thank you so much for teaching me how to make a cake "baker style" It was super moist!!!
Oh my gosh Catherine. That looks amazing. What a delicious way to enhance a plain old boxed cake mix. In 3 days I'm hosting a luncheon for 5 ladies. You can bet this will be served. I can always count on great ideas from you. I wish we lived closer as I feel we've became friends with each other. Thank you and continue the videos.
Looks delicious! I need to move closer to you!! Back when I was able, I stayed in the kitchen making recipes like this and really enjoyed doing it. Now, I have R/A and am not able. I'm only 49 years old and it really aggravates me that I am not able to cook much anymore because that was my outlet and passion. Thank you for the videos. I miss it so much 😥
Oh my gosh, your not even done and I am salivating!! Chocolate and marshmallow, so good together!! Thank you so much for your recipes and tips. God Bless you an dyours!!
I recently found your channel while looking for recipes~~You're amazing~~I hate cooking but I love food~~You make delicious meals that aren't time consuming~~I can sure handle that~~lol~~I've made a few of your recipes and I'm hooked~~I am not good with desserts either~~But yours are simple and delicious~~I can handle that as well~~You pretty much get to the point instead of all the blah blah talk which isn't good for my severe anxiety~~Please don't ever stop with your delicious and simple recipes~~God Bless you sweet woman~~
I occasionally have anxiety attacks when I'm in the kitchen...hate being there. So, it's amazing that I had to subscribe, because sometimes, I enjoy watching magic happen and get to see the steps to getting there, unlike true magicians that I never get to know! (I watch a couple of furniture guys for the same reason!)
I got so many compliments last night at Christmas Eva party! Everyone said it was the best cake they’d ever had lol so Thank you soooo much for the recipe
I made this for my son's birthday (jan 3rd 2021), made on the monday before Christmas, Only used the recipe on back of the Hershey cocoa box,,,( subbing the "Hot water" for Coffee) but made the rest of the cake as this video,,, My Goodness! It was soooooo good! Loved it! And I am making one for myself for my birthday Jan. 5th,,,Cant wait! Thank you for the awesome recipe!
You make some of the most amazing desserts. I’m going to definitely make this one as soon as I get the ingredients I need. WOW I can’t wait to make this . Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. 😁
I love watching you cause you bring up alot of recipes that remind me of my grandma my grandma would top her hot chocolate cake with peppermint for a dessert for Christmas
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 whenever I made cake my dad use to say: pass me your utensils including the bowl when ya done. Wjen he was done I did not neeeeed to wash. Fir a clue of HOW CLEAN I got it back. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙄☝🏾 Now my brother took over as he is no longer with us. Your hubby made me remember him when he said that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Glad I found your you tube page. I am definitely going to make this. Thank you for sharing and making recipes that your viewers feel that we can make. You and your husband remind me of Ree, the Pioneer Woman, and her husband, Ladd. Keep up the good work 😊
I found my hand mixer at a thrift store. I thought mine was missing one of the whisk beaters. I thought I needed a beater for each slot. I learned something new today! Thanks Catherine!
So glad I found your channel! This cake looks so easy to make and talk about chocolate overload! I think this will make a nice little gift to take to a friend as well during the holidays.
Hi 🙋♀️ Catherine omg ! That’s a great idea. You took this to another level yummy 😋 can’t wait to try this for my family. So far I have try already a few of your sweet and savory fall recipes. Thank you again for sharing 👍🏼🤗🙏🏻
Okay Poke Cake Queen my adult son and I got Covid 6 months ago and just starting to be able too eat. So it's July with the A/C blasting and yeppers I made this cake it is delicious!! I was going to make this before I got so sick but never forgotten about that cake. Thank you Poke Cake Queen and God bless.
Looks good. Before putting cake in refrigerator I would spread a layer of crushed graham crackers over the marshmallow layer and later top it off with the chocolate coolwhip.
I can't wait to try this, it looks scrumptious! You're such a good mom suprising your daughter with this sweet cake when she comes home after a long day at work. I love doing things like that for my daughter, too. ❤💕❤
All I can say is GIRLLLLL this cake is so so good. I just started watching your videos and you are one of my favorites for cooking. Love, Love, Love this cake.
I have made this beauty today, to take for a special guest speaker at church tonight! I have highest confidence in this recipe. I know it will be delicious.
I made this for my nephews birthday yesterday and it was a big hit !! I always add a heaping tablespoon of cake flour to any box of cake mix because I want the cake to rise higher like they used to before the boxes shrank down from the 18 ounces they used to be !
The back and forth playful banter between you and your husband adds a comedic twist to your already amazing recipes. Fun channel!!
Thanks so much!
