I'm finally baking! Just in time for this month's installment of
The Cake Slice. We start off our third year of baking from the book:
Cake Keeper Cakes, a promising cookbook filled with different types of cakes: from round ones to loafs, bundts to crumb cakes, chiffon and snacking cakes. I'm excited to get this year started with this book.
The first cake our group chose is
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Pound Cake to keep with the season's baking. October signals Fall and Halloween so a cake with pumpkin is a perfect choice. The addition of chocolate chips and walnuts along with cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg truly fits in with the season. A great cake to enjoy with creamy coffee or tea, even a tall glass of milk.
My youngest son requested one without nuts so I obliged him and just added more chocolate chips. This is the picture you see here. (The first loaf were eaten right away that I didn't get a chance to take a picture!) Please see how other
members of The Cake Slice did with this cake and get baking, just
print the recipe.

I liked the nuts but I think I will try a loaf without them next time. Your cake looks nice and moist and chocolately.

Extra chocolate chips is always appropriate in my opinion :)

Looking really good!
Ican see why this didn't last long...delicious looking cake! Who needs nuts anyway?
When I first introduced the concept of vegetable and chocolate cake (chocolate and zuccini cake), my workmates were dumbfounded! But I think these vegetables - zuccini, pumpkin - can really add a different twist to traditional cakes! Mmmmm!!
Your cake turned out lovely! I too was a huge fan of the cake. BTW, I love the name of your blog.
Your cakes looks so moist and delicious!
I love that tablecloth (placemat, napkin?, too. So pretty.
That's what my cake needed, MORE chocolate! Your cake came out beautifully. :)
