i have always had a sweet tooth, but since being married, i have brought jared over to the…hmmm, some might call it… dark side.  well, we were in the mood for something sweet to end our meal the other day, and we didn’t have much around.  i found a box of white cake mix in the pantry and decided to visit google for an idea, and this recipe popped up.  you could do lot of variations of this, and i decided to add some cherry juice infused craisins (if you haven’t tried these, you must!).  it took no time at all, and our little bellies were very happy.
