Martha Stewart's website has amazing recipe's for everything!

I made an excellent German chocolate cake for Father's Day using a Bon Appetit recipe from Epicurious.com. I'm not a natural baker, but I found the recipe easy to follow, and the results were delicious. The recipe can be found here: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/GERMAN-CHOCO...

Good luck!

Better then sex cake, there are different names for it but the recipe is actually on the box.

Go to Allrecipes.com, you are sure to find a great recipe for a killer cake!

B.,

I use www.allrecipes.com for just about all my recipes. This website is free to access and has thousands of recipes that people submit, rate and review. I love the searches that you can do - by ingredients, cuisine, dietary need, prep level and style, etc. They also have great cooking articles and video clips.

One of the best parts is that you can see what people rated the recipe and read their reviews. They usually include tips to make the recipe better and when you have hundreds of people testing and critiquing a recipe, it comes out pretty good!

You can save all your favorite recipes in your own online recipe box as well. And if the number of servings isn't right for your family, you put in the number of servings you want and the recipe will recalculate the ingredients for you according to the number of servings you want.

Good luck,
