Today I am celebrating this blog's first week. It might not sound like much, but having kept this blog for a week is great in my book, as this blog is a very trial-and-error kind of thing for me. And the response that I have gotten has been overwhelming and terrific. Thank you to everyone who has been supportive about this blog! It means a lot!
I of course had to celebrate with cake (it's in the name, people!).
This bundt cake is deliciously chocolatey and so moist it disappears in your mouth. It was my first time making it, so it really could go which ever way, but it turned out good. Oh so chocolatey and good! It's lovely and soft, and I served it together with a creamy chocolate ganache. Each slice was like a little bit of heaven. Recipe is further down.
