For the past three years I have been making her favorite Chocolate Cake with Fleur de Sel Caramel Filling, but this year I just wanted to do something different.
She selected a Dark Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Ganache, so I took her up on the idea, and baked the above pictured cake.
Ukrainians pride themselves on baking the best tortes, and Walnut Torte is one of the most traditional ones.
Tortes require time and patience, as you can see from reviewing this recipe, but it is a labor of love, and well worth the effort.
I love honey cake, but especially more so around the holidays. There is something very soothing about having hot herbal tea with a piece of honey cake, on a cold winter day, which is perfect around Christmas.
All those pumpkins out there from Halloween decorations can be turned into pumpkin paste and baked into a nice Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin Roll, Pumpkin Cheesecake…etc.
If you are like me and leave that pumpkin out there until Thanksgiving, and purchase ready-made pumpkin paste for your baking, then your are ahead of the game with your baking.
Today I will share may recipe for a Pumpkin Roll which is loved by my family.
Another cake challenge proposed to me by my daughter a while back, as a choice for her Birthday cake. I love trying out new recipes, so I was ready to tackle this one as well. You can never go wrong with chocolate.
This chocolate cake consists of 4 layers of cake, with chocolate ganache, creamy salted caramel, and toasted almonds. If this doesn’t make your mouth water, I don’t know what will!
