Leap Cakes




In celebration of Leap Day, I made a couple of cakes. For PLTI this week, I doctored beyond the Cake Mix Doctor. I jazzed up this cake (bottom photo) with rum, banana liqueur, and coconut. (No reports on how it tasted, although it smelled pretty good.)

Then I decided to try the Lemon-Ginger Bundt Cake (top photo) from the new issue of Everyday Food. All in all, I liked this cake, although the one I made baked with a weird air bubble that ran through two-thirds of the cake. Weird. I shared the recipe with a friend who has had no luck with it (twice, in fact). I need to make this one again to see if there's something amiss in the process.
