I promised my girlfriend the recipe for really easy chocolate cake. Since I’m whipping one up for Colin I thought I’d finally get it posted.
Colin’s Chocolate Cake -makes 1 9 inch cake
1 1/2 cup flour 1 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp salt 3 Tbsp cocoa
1 tsp bk powder 1 tsp bk soda
1 tsp vanilla 1 tsp vinegar
1/2 cup butter, melted 1 cup buttermilk
Mix everything in a bowl and pour into a greased cake pan. Doesn’t get easier than that!
Bake 350F for 30 minutes
or double the recipe and pour into a greased bundt pan and bake 60 minutes.
I have another recipe to share. I wish I could include the link for where I found it. I usually write that information down. If any one has the link, please let me know. But this is so delicious I just have to share.
Slow Roasted Pork with Memphis Dust
Memphis Dust:
2 T brown sugar and white sugar
4 t paprika
2 t salt and garlic powder
1 t pepper and onion powder
1 t ginger powder
Massage this onto a trimmed pork shoulder roast (around 4 lbs).
Put on a roasting pan and roast 225F for 8-12 hours. I usually do it about 8 hours. So delicious!
You can even enjoy this roast in the summer time! Just preheat your BBQ (only use half the burners) to 350F. Put roast in a foil pan and BBQ one hour per pound. That’s it, you don’t need to fuss with it or anything. Just keep your temperature around 350F.
due to health issues I have had to be grain free for a few years now- I do miss cake!
I think we would starve it we got rid of wheat 🙂
SOUNDS EASY ENOUGH, THANKS FOR SHARING.

You can never go too wrong with buttermilk i baking; Paula I think we would starve here without wheat too
Thanks for sharing your recipes, they both sound great!! 🙂
Oh those sound delicious!! And minus the ginger powder, I could turn that pork recipe gluten free and try it myself! yum!! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
I don’t really notice the ginger flavour, so I don’t think it would be missing if you left it out.
Paula, I am hoping to try Coln’s Cake as my very first baking item in my new oven today ! Wish me luck.
Good luck! Do you have an oven thermometer? I always use mine and trust that for oven temperature.

OH wow …love that cake with buttermilk…. bookmarking and that roast looks heavenly…….you must not cover it right? leave it out in open? YUMMMMMmmmmmm so good to hear from you and love the sweater it is heavenly and perfect color for that beauty…..love Merri
Yes, the roast just sits in the pan (I don’t think I cover any of my roasts). I do usually put in a piece of tin foil because of all the sugar in the Memphis dust -it can burn and be a real mess to clean up.
I’m having a hard time getting a picture of the sweater with the correct colour. It’s a deeper/richer colour than on the computer.
I love everything here as it makes me feel like I have a family..a loving one..that is in tune with what is important LOVE of Family …tell Ella she is so pretty…and when I send her books on to her hope she will write to me… will write more later in email…we are to get snow again…suppose you too maybe..Blessings to you and much love… you are an amazing mom .. so loving, caring and talented……. how are the pets?
