Ok, so I've been a Giada kick. I made this cake for a Hogmanay party I attended last night. It was so easy (especially because you just use a boxed cake mix for the base) but the flavor was great. A little hazelnut brittle, mixed with a mascarpone based frosting... and chocolate cake. The chocolate and orange zest topping added just a bit of extra sweetness to the cake.
Hi Christine!
ReplyDeleteMy mouth started watering with this post! What a delicious treat!
I love Giada too, and can watch all day. Have you ever watched Nigella? She's another good one...Your knitting and sewing is so lovely. I'm sure everyone loved their gifts from you!...Many wonderful blessings in 2011! xo Paulette
