There is a Monkey Cake in My Oven

On this cold, snowy first day of the new year, there is a monkey cake in the oven. The girls are sleeping (well, Kate is sleeping and Rachel is probably upstairs playing Barbies) and Rob is playing his PS3. And the whole house smells like chocolate cake. Yum. Yum.

Why not make a quick batch of cupcakes for this afternoon?

Here's the easiest recipe in the world for really moist, tasty cupcakes:

1 box of Duncan Hines cake mix

2 eggs

1 and 1/3 cups of water

Mix together using a stand mixer or hand mixer for 3 min. Divide evenly among 24 cupcake lined wells. Bake for 15 min.

Enjoy!
