What’s a Birthday Celebration without a Cake?

If you need a Yellow cake covered with chocolate “frosting” WITHOUT butter, yet taste moist and light.  We have you covered. This cake is inspired by Stella Parks (BraveTart) ,  Martha Stewart (Baking Handbook) and America’s Test Kitchen (the Perfect Cake).

We used dark chocolate granache for frosting (less sugar and no butter).

October is birthday month in our family and amongst friends.  I have been churning out cakes (easy to whip up ) to celebrate (what better way to show your love than to bake a cake).

We are not going to pretend it doesn’t take effort to bake a stunning cake. The secret lies in a bit of planning and a simple recipe that works and patience if you want to add frosting. In the end, it is all about the joy and happiness a cake brings to sharing a milestone with family and friends.
