Apple Pie Stuffed Chocolate Cake


I was watching the Food Network the other day and on an episode of The Kitchen (my all time fave) they baked a chocolate cake with an apple pie inside. So, naturally, I had to try it!!

You need:
One box of chocolate cake mix, prepared
One store bought pre-made apple pie
A spring form baking pan


That's it! 

Mix the cake batter as directed on the box. Add about a cup of the cake mix to a greased spring form pan and spread out along the bottom.Take your apple pie out of the store packaging and drop it down into the pan on top of your cake batter. Then, pour the rest of your batter on top.

Bake at 350' for about 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow cake to cool before removing from the pan.

Crockpot Flank Steak


1/2 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon of minced onion
1 teaspoon of ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
1 (1 1/2 lb) beef flank steak




Put the flank steak in the bottom of the crockpot. Combine all other ingredients in a seperate bowl and pour over the steak.
Cook on low for 4-5 hours.
The meat should easily shred.


 As with most everything, I put mine into a soft taco shell with some cheddar cheese. It was soooooo good!
