Double Chocolate Cake

Yesterday I made this unbelievable chocolate cake for my friend Tracy who is expecting a baby boy at the end of the month. We had a small shower for her last night at my small group meeting.

I've been practicing many recipes for cakes that I am making for a wedding in May. This one is definitely a keeper. I made white chocolate butter cream frosting for the layers and a swiss butter cream for the outside of the cake.

I am making 5 different flavor cakes for the wedding. We are making a "dessert" bar instead of a traditional 4-5 tiered wedding cake. I am excited about this project that I have ahead of me.

Up next will be the Lemon cake.

Molten Lava Cake

Last night I made my brother a molten lava cake for his birthday. It was so darn good.

I got the recipe from Paula Deen from the Food Network. The only changes I made was I added Starbucks chocolate liquor instead of the orange liquor and I used a 4 oz ramekin. I cooked the little cakes for about 7 minutes instead of the recommended 12 minutes. If you are a chocolate lover, I highly suggest you make this recipe. You can find her recipe here.

The picture came out terrible.
