Did you ever own an Easy Bake Oven when you were a child?
I know I had always wanted one and for some reason I never got on when I was younger.
I guess when I baked with parents I always just assisted them in the kitchen.
So when my daughter received one for Christmas this past year I was so excited to share with her what it feels like to bake something from scratch and see the end result. She was completely ecstatic, especially after I explained to her that it was her very OWN oven.
She looked at me with her big brown eyes and asked “Now I can bake like you mommy?”
I looked at her with tears in my eyes, (I know I’m a real sap) and said “Yes, baby just like mommy!”
Here are a few pictures of my princess baking her very first Easy Bake Oven cake with chocolate frosting and sprinkles. 😉

You first must start off with your trusted Easy Bake Oven.
Then prepare the cake batter. In the packet you are given a small pouch of cake mix. All you need to do is add water.
She is really mixing it up. 🙂
Then place in the Easy Bake Oven. Allow it to cook for about 10 minutes or so.
Then prepare the chocolate frosting…
Do you see her checking her temperature… Too Cute!
You see how the cake rolls right through the oven… pretty cool.
You see the little gadget that comes with it to allow you take the cake pan out.
Look at this lil beauty. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes and then frost.
Frost the cake and add a little colored sprinkles.
