When asked what kind of cake she would like for her birthday, my friend Patti responded with a dainty, "chocolate peanut butter, please." And so, I recreated the chocolate peanut butter chocolate cake from a few months ago.
This time, don't tell, but I totally cheated. I used a chocolate cake mix. I made the ganache and buttercream from scratch, but the problem is the the chocolate cake from a cake mix really tastes as good as anything I make from scratch. Often, it's better. Chemicals make for good moisture, what can I say?
Anyway, here it is C-PB-C take two:

I will kill you on our next brunch date for posting the last two photos
ReplyDeleteWow, I am really regretting asking Patti to smile more for that second picture. That right there is "Tom Cruise crazy."
ReplyDeleteOK, I took down the last photo because I really don't like to scare children (it's a myth).
ReplyDeleteBut look, it's getting more people to look at the blog. I picked up a new follower! You know how most people have a 100 follower contest? Maybe I'll have one for 10 followers...
