Thank goodness I have a mother-in-law with good taste in birthday cakes.
This past week we traveled to my in-laws to celebrate her birthday. Brad gave me some tips on what she might like for her cake – I was stoked to create something minty and chocolatey for her. This easily ties for first place with another cake I made when visiting them (chai cake with honey ginger cream). It’s super chocolatey and the mint is just perfect; it really reminds your taste buds of ice cream!
