Craft of the Month: Horseshoe Cake!


Mm, just looking at this picture makes me drool. Yep, that’s right, for the second time in a row, this month’s craft was inspired by summer’s delicious fresh fruits … But really, can you blame us? I mean, just take another look at the picture to the left! YUM!  

These instructions are a little bit longer than normal, though, so now let’s get to it:

  
 
 Ingredients:
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 stick of butter
  • 1 and 1/4 cup of flour
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Powdered sugar
  • Strawberries
  • Kiwis
  • Whipped cream

Tools:

  • Bowl
  • Knife
  • Ring Mold Cake Pan
  • Spatula
  • Hand-held electric mixer
  • Saucepan

Here’s How:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Combine eggs, vanilla, and sugar in a bowl and whip on high speed until blended; put aside
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan and add 1/2 cup of water, allow to boil
  • Add the butter to the egg, vanilla, sugar mix and continue to whip until fluffy; put aside
  • Mix all dry ingredients together 
  • Sift the dry ingredients into the wet batter
  • Pour the batter into a greased cooking pan
  • Bake for approx. 40 minutes
  • Once the cake is done, take it out of the oven and leave to cool for at least one hour
  • Cut about a one-fourth section of the cake away (so the cake is now a horseshoe shape – don’t worry, you can still eat this part of the cake too!)
  • Cover the cake in whipped cream, and sprinkle powdered sugar over it (optional)
  • Slice strawberries and kiwis
  • Decorate the cake with the strawberries and kiwis as you wish!
  • Refridgerate for one hour and then EAT!

        • LotsaHorseCrazy 28 August 2010 at 6:14 pm Permalink

          Jessica/ponylover-sometimes I like it. But usually I feel left out. This year my best friend’s coming over to do school with me though, so I’m excited! Going into seventh grade! What about you? :D

          • Jessica/ponylover 31 August 2010 at 4:13 pm Permalink

            lotshorsecrazy,
            Wow i am so happy your friend is going to do school with you!!!! :D HAve fun in 7th grade!!! I am going into 6th grade!!!!!!!!! did you like 6th grade??!!! Was it hard??

            Jessica/ponylover :)

          • LotsaHorseCrazy 1 September 2010 at 2:24 pm Permalink

            Jessica/ponylover,
            Thanks. :D Sixth grade isn’t that hard. You’re introduced a little bit to algebra in sixth, if you haven’t in fifth. Stuff like letter equations and all that. I think you learn four-digit division, too, but maybe that was before…anyway, good luck! :D

      • Jessica/ponylover 11 August 2010 at 10:25 pm Permalink

        KArli,
        Oh wow!! I do not!!! I feels so bad for you!!!! :( What is the uniform like??

        Jessica/ponylover :)

    • HorseCrazyGirl 12 August 2010 at 10:00 pm Permalink

      I don’t like to go back to school shopping ever! It’s sooooo boring! The shopping I like to do is’nt realy shopping. It’s druling over the horse tack and grooming supplies while dad goes and gets what he needs at the tack, feed and tractor store! :)

      • Abbie the Horse Lover 13 August 2010 at 10:13 pm Permalink

        horsecrazygirl,
        hahaha! me too! the only shopping i like is:

        * tack shop/feed shop

        * horse book shopping

        * the ark (horse stuff)

        * model horse shopping

        * ANY HORSE STUFF :D

        abbie the horse lover

        p.s. do you want to be friends? :)
