It’s Christmas time. Don’t give me that look, Christmas is only two weeks away!!
I love ADORE Christmas. There’s nothing in this world more beautiful than the Christmas holidays. Everyone seems to be in a better mood, smiling and singing cheerful music.
I love going out in the evening and look at the decorations around my neighborhood. It’s such a wonderful feeling seeing almost everyone has at least one-two lights on their front porch, a small or big decorated Christmas tree. Peaceful and beautiful.
We had a great time making this cake a while back. It may seem like a hard cake to make, but it’s as simple as saying 1-2-3.
The cake is a simple devil’s chocolate cake (as if you weren’t expecting that). It’s light and airy, moist from the addition of Greek yogurt and although no chocolate has been used it has a rich taste from the cocoa powder.
The cream cheese frosting is them mixed with chopped peppermint bark and sandwiches the two layers of cake. A little bit of frosting is spread on top of the cake making a sticky place for all the Christmas candy.
One the sides of the cake I Tiffany added chocolate dipped candy cane (I got mine from Hobby Lobby – you’ll need two containers)
It’s really not that hard to make this cake, although it looks like I’ve slaved in the kitchen for days.
