The recipe for love

I cream the golden butter of your soul
With equal weights of sweetness from your heart
For each 2 ounces eggs are added whole
Well taking off the shells before you start
Self raising flour and cocoa go in next
The weight must match the butter more or less
To beat it all your muscles will be flexed
Electric mixers can reduce the stress
We’ll spoon the mixture into baking tins
And lick a little spare from parts of you
Set twenty minutes when the bake begins
Then think of something fun that two can do
When cooked and cooled it’s time for you to ice
And icing someone special can be nice!
