Nasty Cake Recipe

Nasty Cake Recipe

  • 1 (18.25 ounce) box devil's food cake mix
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup evaporated milk
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  1. Prepare batter and bake cake as directed on the package.
  2. About 5 minutes before the cake is finished baking, melt the butter in a large saucepan to allow for foaming, and stir in the evaporated milk. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, and stir in the corn syrup and sugar. Bring back to a boil, stir to dissolve sugar, turn off the heat, and add the baking soda. Stir continuously until the baking soda is mixed in and stops foaming, about 2 minutes.
  3. Remove the cake from the oven, and poke holes in the hot cake with a butter knife or the end of a wooden spoon. Pour the syrup over the hot cake, and let cool before cutting.
