You've probably heard of a rent party, but how about a mortgage cake?

That's what one New Jersey mother of three is whipping up to help keep her home out of foreclosure. Angela Logan of Teaneck, N.J., surpassed a goal of making 100 $40 "Mortgage Apple Cakes" in 10 days to meet her $2,559.94 mortgage payment. The Bergen Record reports the divorced actress has received more than 500 orders for her desserts, which she says fight "foreclosure one cake at a time."

"Purchase our moist delicious Mortgage Apple Cakes (M.A.Cs), made with loads of fresh Gala and Delicious apples and whole grain flour, covered with buttercream cheese frosting, made with vanilla and organic confection," Logan writes on her Web site. "It's a gourmet treat."
