TWD: Devils Food White Out Cake

I am still on vacation in Arizona and even though I have promised to find computer time, I just haven't been able to. We have been so busy visiting family and friends and doing cool stuff! We are having a blast! I have been cooking, too, so I will at least have posts ready for when I get home to Germany.

I wanted to get this post up (as boring as it may be!) so that I was sure to get credit for this weeks recipe. This cake was FANTASTIC! It was so much fun to put together, too. Usually you are worried about getting crumbs in your frosting, but with this cake you get to crumble a layer and press it on in! Dorie doesn't disappoint with this cake. Seriously... buy the book and make the cake!!!



Thanks to Stephanie of Confessions of a City Eater for picking the beautiful cover cake! I have been wanting to make it ever since I bought the book! As always, check out the blogroll! (Hopefully I will be able to do that!!!)

    Your cake looks fancy!

    I just ate a slice of my cake. These are too delish to have lying around. Need to pass these off to the guinea pigs at work!

    Miss you!

    your cake looks wonderful! that's how I had hoped mine would turn out! I think I did something wrong with the frosting- it turned out foamy...

    It's hard to say what's the best thing about this cake: the way it tastes or the way you can just slap that white frosting on and not even worry about dark cake crumbs coming through. And the speckled plates match!!

    Wow - that's one nice looking cake! Looks like your frosting turned out quite nicely, compared to mine. The entire cake looks fantastic - just like Dorie's cover!
