Cherry Lemon Crazy Cake

Cherry Lemon Crazy Cake

This cherry lemon crazy cake is just the way that is sounds. The ingredients might be a little crazy, but it comes out of the oven just perfect. The ingredients can easily be adjusted to allow for several different flavors but have an extremely moist and spongy taste. You could also add some cream cheese frosting after it bakes, if you wish. The kids would really love it.

Cherry Lemon Crazy Cake

As strange as the recipe might sound the final product comes out great! It's almost as if the marshmallows disappear, but it leaves a super moist and gooey cake. The top is semi crunchy, but if you desire it would be fine with some sort of buttercream frosting on the top.

This is a really easy and versatile recipe. You could use a buttercream frosting on top, or it would be just GREAT with fresh fruit over the top, and a light dusting of powdered sugar. Even better you could drop a big scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. The possibilities are really endless.
