Lava Cake

Ingredients:
   Any cake mix
   1 can frosting

Directions:
   Mix the cake in the Bean Pot according to the directions on the box. 
   Place spoonfuls of the frosting on top of the cake batter.

This is delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream.

I know I'm only updating a couple times a week, but this message from Celebrating Home's president, Heather Chastain, says a much-needed "Thank You" to all the veterans out there. I just had to share it.
