I began Devil's Food Cake Murder and within the first few pages the devil's food cake was introduced and I already knew that the cake would be part of a murder.
This book brings some new characters for me besides Hannah (the main character who always finds someone murdered): Grandma Knudson and Matthew Walters (who is helping out in Lake Eden but from there as a child).
Chapter four contains a recipe for Death By Caffeine, which is a basic recipe that mimics a tiramisu. I did not make this recipe, but thought that the use of the chocolate yogurt was interesting (less expensive than marscapone cheese). Also she used sponge cake instead of lady fingers (also reducing the cost). I may have to try this one to see what my husband thinks - tiramisu is one of his favorite desserts.
By friday, Hannah has found her murdered person: Reverand Matthew (seated at his desk) and the Devil's food cake on the floor right in front of the desk.
