With birthday season beginning at my house, I’m taking a quick look back at previous years.
This is the Monkey Cake I made for Sweet Boy’s 1st Birthday. You can find the instructions here from Martha Stewart. It was very easy and makes use of your metal bowl for baking the cake – something I love doing to get the dome shape without having to buy another cake pan. (I also did this for the Ladybug Cake.)
Let the birthdays begin!
