The Best Birthday Cake

Thank You, Thank You, THANK YOU to my sweet friend, Donna. She made this fantastic Death by Chocolate cake and gave it to me for my birthday yesterday. This is the most amazing chocolate creation I have ever tasted.

There are seven individual layers of delicious goodness, brownie layer, ganache layer, cocoa meringue, espresso mousse, another brownie layer, dark chocolate ganache with chocolate mousse stars on top. I’m in awe of this masterpiece. You can click here to follow her step by step recipe instructions if you dare to tempt yourself.

In case you are wondering, this cake is insanely rich, but in the best possible way. All of the layers compliment each other and they don’t overwhelm you with just chocolate. The above slice served three people. Thank you again, Donna! This is an unforgettable cake.
