What went wrong

FIRSTLY, I DECIDED TO MAKE A PALEO CHOCOLATE CAKE AT 1AM

I read a recipe a long time ago and purchased the ingredients from memory.

Unlike last week where I was left with 200 eggs this time I didn’t have enough.

I had to pick a new recipe last minute….I also had a to make a lot of substitutes

Substitute for eggs

Substitute for honey

The instructions said “Place coconut milk, honey, eggs, and vanilla extract inside your blender”
Which is CRUEL.
Because I started “PLACING” them into the dry ingredient bowl before I got to the part that mentioned a blender.
Things started off well

Things became complicated when I discovered I don’t own a cake tin!

 

The cupcake tray was still destroyed from my last attempt at cooking
