Monday Night Cake Fail

Doesn’t this cake look deliciously fresh and summery?:

I thought so, too, and thought it would be the perfect baking project Monday night.

At first, all was going according to plan. I bought my berries (I decided to use just blueberries and raspberries rather than including blackberries, too), set out the butter to soften, and got the other ingredients ready.

I whipped out my beloved Kitchen Aid mixer and started whipping up some batter. It looked perfect! (I snuck a few tastes, too, and it was wonderful.)

I should have realized something was up when it came time to spoon the batter into the bundt pan. It nearly filled the pan, and I think I should have left some of the batter out. (I also should have greased and floured it better!)

Anyway, the final result was a cake that was slightly over baked on the outside with pockets of uncooked batter on the inside. Oh, and about a third of it stuck to the pan.

I’m still convinced that this will be a delicious cake, though, so I plan to give it another try — with a few slight modifications.

Has anyone else experienced kitchen failures of late?
