Campfire Cake - yep, you read it right

Campfire Cake

Before preparing cake make a HOT fire to ensure you have a good bed of coals to cook your cake in.



 

Ingredients and needed supplies:
1 Box of yellow cake mix
Eggs (however many the cake mix directions tell you)
1 15 oz. can of sliced peaches, reserve the syrup/juice
Vegetable or Canola Oil
Flour
Large Iron Skillet
Tin Foil

Directions:
Grease and flour the iron skillet.  Remove the peaches from the can reserving the syrup/juice.  Place the peaches in a pattern onto the greased and floured skillet.  (See above)
Use the cake mixes box and add the called for amount of eggs, oil, and cake mix to a bowl.  Instead of the called for water use the reserved juice/syrup from peach can...add water only if you do not get the full measurement.

 Mix batter until well blended and pour over the peaches in the iron skillet being sure all the peaches are covered.  Cover the skillet tightly with tin foil.

 Place the cake in your fire pit making sure there are coals on all sides of the skillet.  Bake cake in fire pit until done about 20-30 minutes.
Loosen the cake on all side with a butter knife and flip the cake from skillet onto a platter or cookie sheet.  Serve and enjoy!
