And because I had a lot of grading to do, today was clearly the perfect day to bake them.
The yellow frosting reminds me of when I went to Spain with my high school Spanish class. One of our hosts served chocolate cake that had words written in yellow icing on top. I was afraid to eat it because I thought they had covered it in Cheese Whiz!
Anyway, I used the same recipe I mentioned around Christmas from the blog What's Megan Making. Find her recipe here.
This time, however, I cut the vanilla extract in half, added a teaspoon and a half lemon extract, and threw in a tablespoon of poppy seeds.
To color the frosting, I used 1/2 teaspoon turmeric.
Maybe the cheery yellow will help Joe get better faster! If not, he at least has his giant bottle of antibiotics.
