Homemade cake done!

As I was watching Tv guys I had the need to make something to eat as a midnight snack, so what's better than a homemade cake, right? So I took the advantage of having all food supplies bought previously which led me to have all the ingredients that the recipe needed. In this sense let my imagination fly! Above you see the result. A delicious cake, it took me 45 minutes to make it because I turn out to get better at making it. Everytime a make one I need to add something so it looks different than the last one, so this time I added some nonpareils which are basically decorative confectionery colored small balls made with sugar and dark chocolate chips in the cake, despite they're used to decorate outside the cake I blended them in the mixture! I hope you can spot the little colored dots that are noticeable in the cake slice.
That's all for tonight mylotters. Now I am heading to bed to watch either a movie or series! Good night see you tomorrow!
Picture is mine.

@simone10 why there hasn't been made a machine that allows us to send food quickly from one place to another right?

@jvicentevalera They would have made the cake very colourful. Did you put icing on it?

@CarolDM thank you! While I was making it I thought of doing it right so it looks beautiful for the picture that I pictured I would post here. Regarding your question, it is the usual color in a cake, I would have loved to add a colorant that people add in the mixture but I didn't want to!

@jvicentevalera If you have any left, you can freeze it. It's best not to have cakes when dieting and exercising.

Aw Dianne thank you! Your words mean a lot to me! Yeah I added the chips, nonpareils etc so it looked different! Bad thing is now I am on a diet so I think I might stop making them and eating them as well!

I like to make cake in the Crock-Pot. My favorite is chocolate cherry!

@jvicentevalera First, throw in the pie filling, then the cake mix. On top, place 2 sticks of butter. Cook on HIGH for about 3 hours, maybe 3 1/2 hours. Easy! There are no rules to what cake mix or pie filling to use.
