Chocolate Turtle Cake

I had friends in town the other week and came across this recipe....it was delish! The recipe I found was from a bakery in St. Paul, MN...just a stones throw away from where I'm from! I knew I had to try it when I came across it!! It was wonderful...the only thing I might change up is use homemade caramel vs. caramel sundae topping (still good when your in a pinch). I thought the caramel flavor got lost in the chocolate. Here is the recpie if your interested in giving it a whirl!

Spring Cake 2011

So I decided to go ahead and re-do my Easter A.K.A. Spring cake....this was originally supposed to be for Easter weekend until the cake batter bowl slipped out of my hands onto the floor! OOPS! I re-made it 1 week later for a little gathering of friends we had! This cake I made white cake and chocolate cake and layered them with vanilla buttercream and chocolate ganache! It was decadent and oh so good! Here is what it looked like!
