HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Your Cake is Delicious.



SUZY SPOON'S 2-LAYER CHOCOLATE MUD CAKE
p. 198 GOV
Prepared 5/4/2010


I knew this would be awesome, and it was. I saved the recipe for a special occasion, and the pre-schooler daddy's birthday seemed like just the right one. This is another go-the-extra-mile-with the preparation kind of cake...but its not really a big deal. And the end result is a very rich, extremely moist and delicious cake. We frosted it with some pink (color chosen by said pre-schooler) frosting from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World and topped with a hint of ganache. (Note that unlike some recipes in this triumverate of cookbooks, this one makes 2 layers. This may be obvious to you from the name of the recipe but then again, maybe not. I can't make assumptions.)

And then, for a few moments, all was right with the world.
