Food always puts a smile on my face. It is something that comforts me, it fills that space of boredom, it is there with me at celebrations and it creates moments to share with family and friends. You must have food to live. This is a place to put some of my favorite recipes. Some healthy and some not so healthy.

CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY CAKE
chocolate cake mix
raspberry puree (recipe follows)
cool whip chocolate frosting
Make cake according to package. I used 2 9 inch pans. Let cool. While the cake is cooling you can prepare the raspberry puree.
18 oz. frozen raspberries, thawed
1/2 cup sugar
2 tbsp. cornstarch
Puree the berries in a blender or food processor. Put into a saucepan and add sugar and cornstarch, heating over medium heat until it comes to a boil, stirring constantly. Once the mixture thickens, take it off the heat and let it cool.
When cake and puree has cooled spread puree in between the two layers of cake. I wouldn't push down too much, as the puree may ooze out. Place cake in fridge to let set more. Frost and eat.
