One Bite Of This Cake And You’ll Be On A Magic Carpet Ride

When I was a little girl, I was always intrigued by the story of Hansel and Gretel. I always tried to imagine the types of things they found to eat when they stumbled upon the Witch’s gingerbread house. I envisioned a large, chocolate, Black Forest cake sitting on a graham cracker table with licorice legs. Yum!

Now granted, in my fantasy, the witch wasn’t a witch at all, but rather a sweet little old lady who simply enjoyed making goodies for kids who were out wandering in the deep, dark forest. She would make me Black Forest Cakes all day long and I’d eat them without gaining a pound or getting sick. Wouldn’t that be wonderful? LOL! Now, I make my own Black Forest Cake following this simple recipe, and even though it may make me gain a few pounds if I overindulge, I still eat it anyway.

A couple of weeks ago I organized a special dinner for 5 people. The guests were some of our closest friends and one of them had a birthday coming up, so I wanted to serve something extra delicious for dessert.

At first, I thought of making a bunch of cupcakes with frosting and pretty decorations. But then I came across this cake recipe and I just couldn’t resist trying it! Creamy whipped frosting sandwiched between rich chocolate, make this deliciously decadent dessert irresistible. The topping really brings the whole dish together wonderfully.

This cake is also perfect for those who would like to make their dessert ahead! After removing from cake pans, wrap them in foil and pop them into the freezer until ready to fill and frost. This will help keep the cake moist, as well as prevent crumbs from getting into the frosting.

Then just thaw the cake, make the frosting and you’re done. How easy is that?
