I hate to bake. Never have enjoyed it. Except for the occasional pie, I stay away from baking. Not that my current weight reflects that.
Lucky for me, Pia LOVES to bake. She is a veritable tornado of flour, butter and cocoa powder. And when I browsed through this month's Martha Stewart Living and saw this 6 Layer Salted Caramel Chocolate Cake...well, I knew it was synchronicity.
I showed her the mag, she did the rest. And cleaned up her mess too :-) I'm waiting for her to get home to have a piece of this for dessert.
Even though I'm not a huge cake fan, this combo of sweet and salty sounds perfect.

Love that you waited for me. The caramel sort of melted into the chocolate layer (maybe I needed to let it cool longer?), but it sure did taste delicious! The caramel was a perfect balance to the dark chocolate. That's definitely going to school on Monday so we don't eat it all! And I did clean my dishes (well except for two that are soaking). I like to keep my kitchen tidy when baking. :)
ReplyDeleteI hate baking too. Don't let Pia come to my house. That's the last thing we need. Ry could eat that in one sitting.
ReplyDeleteI don't think ANYONE could eat even one whole piece of this at one sitting, it is so rich!
ReplyDeleteIt was ridiculously rich. We ate slivers. I took it to fellowship last night, and school today to get rid of it. I only had two little slivers, and I think mom had 1 piece. I was pretty proud of our self-control.
ReplyDeleteI actually had 1/2 a piece. It was not humanly possible to eat a whole piece.
