Preheat the oven, three hundred fifty.
Half cup butter that's melted, nutty brown.
Unsweetened chocolate added brashly
And allowed time to cool, the brew to crown.
Mix thorough, eggs and cup of sugar, two.
Temper well lest ova scramble, desired.
One cup of warm water to mixtured brew.
A few more steps ere decadence acquired.
Half three teaspoons soda, one quarter salt
Nine quarter cups flour, we now must sift.
A quarter cup of milk which we exalt.
One teaspoon vinegar provides the lift.
Bake half an hour, as scent your nostril fills.
And now we dine upon this food, devil's.

Yesterday I was listening to a man sing in German and thought, "This is beautiful, but without any meaning. He might as well be singing a cake recipe for all I know." That gave me an idea for a challenge, to write a poem that is a cake recipe. I hope you've enjoyed it, now I'm going to bake a cake.
