Description: Every year my little sister and my birthday, mother will make a birthday cake for us, Mom uses many tools such as small spoons, cups, large bowls and electric egg beater. Mix and pour the flour, eggs and milk into the baking pan and place in the oven. Soon become a delicious cake. So I also want to use these things to make a cake for mom on her mother’s day.

My family likes eating chocolate, so we decided to make a chocolate cake. Mom prepared a box of chocolate taste of cake mix for us, my little sister is my little assistant, I use scissors to open the box and the packing bag of cake mix, pour them all into the large bowl .

Then, for the first time, I cracked the eggs into the bowl by myself, cut a butter block with a knife, mix yogurt with milk, poured them into a large bowl, then began to beat them with the electric egg beater, and finally poured them into a baking pan, scraped them clean with a silicone spatula and sent them into the oven!

Recipe:

• Cake Mix
• 3/4 Cup Water/Milk+Yogurt
• 7 Tablespoons Softened Butter
• 3 Large Eggs
• Bake at 350°F. Two 8-Inch Pans 30min

Usually, it was like magic to watch my mother do it, but It’s hard to do it by myself. Like I am barely hold electric egg beater because it is running so fast, it feels like if I can’t just hold it, it’s going to fly. But it was fun, we made two super delicious chocolate cakes. They are really good! This is the First Cake I made. I love to make cakes. Happy mother’s day！
