From Denny: For all you folks who like to try a different way of doing something, here's a way to cook a cake on top of the stove in a skillet! It has to be energy conscious rather than turning on the big oven to bake a cake. It looks like a real calorie monster so you know it tastes divine! For those of you who like gooey cakes and eat raw cake batter this cake is for you! :)
