I'm branching out! This was my birthday gift to a dear neighbor friend who really wanted a chocolate horse cake with this specific chocolate ganache frosting.
4 inches in diameter and loaded with dark chocolate chips, this cookie is crisp on the edges and ooey-gooey chewy in the middle. You know you want one.
One person -who shall remain nameless- didn't like that it was "too big" and didn't fit into his milk glass for dunking. First world problems, buddy. Can't help but feel a little sorry for someone who can't figure a way around that issue.
We had a slew of birthdays recently! And they all requested chocolate...
Hockey Puck cake: chocolate cake filled with chocolate cream cheese frosting, topped with blackened chocolate ganache and fondant hockey sticks. My hand got a little shaky once I got to the lettering part. Hmm. Maybe not so much coffee next time I do lettering...
Ombre cake- chocolate cake, filled with raspberry curd and raspberry frosting, and topped with Italian meringue vanilla and raspberry-flavored frosting.
Chocolate cake with a caramel center, caramel cream cheese frosting, and for a final flourish, a chocolate-covered caramel candy and an indulgent drizzle of caramel.
