Yeah. Underbaked. But the real problem was that it was gross. "It" was supposed to be a carrot cake that was a little more like banana bread than "cake". From 101 Cookbooks. But as I was mixing, I was thinking, "was this bag w/w pastry flour, or was it vital wheat gluten?" Not a good question to be asking (and sniffing! I was sniffing it!). Although I think I used the right flour, I overmixed. Ok. A lot of wrong things happened. I'm (almost) over it. I just really.messed.this.one.up.

Aw, sorry to hear it.
ReplyDeleteI underbaked Rube's birthday cake. He asked me if it was supposed to be so fudgy. (I should have said yes, because it tasted fine. I was so glad that it was just him and me eating it though.)
