I baked Rhiannons chocolate birthday cake like she requested, and was completely certain that I had everything I needed to make frosting, so all I grabbed at the store today was a little $0.77 packet of caramel frosting flavor add in. 1AM rolls around and Im starting to make the frosting so we can surprise her in the morning, and what do ya know? I dont have enough powdered sugar, Im completely out of granulated sugar, and the only other option I have is brown sugar. The coconut milk isnt blending properly, and its a grainy, sloppy wet mess that smells delicious but is definitely not frosting. I figure I can toss in a bunch of random crap and try to salvage it, and if it doesnt work out we can always make an emergency run to the store in the morning. Sooo, what else can I toss in here. The sour creams gone bad, we dont have any cream cheese, Im out of peanut butter, but Ive got cottage cheese, bananas, cocoa powder, and a box of banana cream pudding mix. In goes the cocoa powder, and Im hesitant to add anymore without sugar, so I throw in the box of pudding mix and the last 2T of butter in the fridge. Freaking voila, Chocolate caramel banana cream frosting. But I dont have anything to write her name on the cake with. What can I use to write on the cake that is not frosting but wont clash with this. Well, the only thing left is banana. Ive got two mushed up bananas in a ziploc bag in the freezer. Ima pipe the shit out of them. And thats how you cook when youre out of time and money.
