Yellow Honey Cake with Peanut Butter Honey Icing

First, let me explain - I am not a professional chef.

I am a college student- with limited utensils and money.

But it doesn't mean I don't like good home cookin' !!

Now.....

Documented experiment numero uno.

INGREDIENTS FOR CAKE: 

(all ingredients on back of cake box too)
1. Follow directions on back of cake mix box. 
2. Add 2 'splashes' on cinnamon (splash mean shake some in there)
3. Add a big squeeze of honey :)
4. Put in oven & bake!... in the mean time.... 

INGREDIENTS FOR ICING:

Making icing can be done in many ways- this is my first experiment. 
1. Get a big mixing bowl 
2. Add 1/2 cup of butter
3. Add 2  1/2 cups of powdered sugar
4. Add 2 big spoonfuls of peanut butter
5. Add a shake of cinnamon 
6. Add a small squeeze of honey
7. Mix all together and put in the fridge

Once, the cake is done- let it cool for a little bit ;)
Set the icing next to it & add as much as you'd like :) 


Enjoy! I sure did!
