The 10th of this month (a week ago) was a good friend's 17th birthday. We totally surprised her several times - it was great!
Anyway, this is the cake I made. They said it was good (she gave me a "thumbs up") with a nice fruity flavor from the strawberries. They also said it looked fancy, and it was even asked if it was store-bought (no, of course ;) ).
So, here's how it went . . .
Doubled the Oat Flour Chocolate Cake, using dark cocoa powder and not exact measuring ;) - I think it turned out better that most times!
Make some cool, fluffy stuff - beat some sugar syrup, egg whites and vanilla together. I was aiming for a marshmallow cream type thing, but that needs a little more work. So, add some chopped fresh, juicy strawberries to some of that . . .
and cover it in the rest of the fluffy stuff. Yeah, and add some more chocolate if you want, just to make it a little more fancy.
Go outside to take a picture,
then remember that you had leftover chocolate glaze from the Tunnel of Fudge Cake that you made last week, and take it a step further.
Take it to the birthday girl's house (it survived the bumpy roads).
And watch it dissapear . . .
in minutes . . .
until you have a clean plate to take home.
