Recipe
Make a chocolate box cake mix according to directions. Bake in your heart shaped thingy. When it cools, cut in half and do a layer of filling.
Center Strawberry Marshmallow Filling
Mix equal parts marshmallow fluff with pink strawberry frosting from a can. (FYI for food snobs, you can buy this in the baking asile by the cake mixes;)
Now for the homemade part:
My BFF Toni's "Old Standby Frosting Recipe"
I use this all the time cause it's so good, and I'm kind of a dummy when it comes to frosting, having ruined more than a few batches. So this is dummy proof. Just the right amount of chocolate to sweet. Oh, and PS Toni's not a dummy, that's why this is her "stand by" and my "go to." You would not believe the kinds of amazing things she can make!
