An awful lot of them used too much CoolWhip, |
My fix is a big piece of chocolate layered cake, my mom's recipe for old-fashioned chocolate cream pie with meringue, chocolate chip cookies, very dark chocolate ice cream with nuts, and a Hershey's chocolate bar with almonds, |
Now that would be way too much for the top of a cake. |
Recently, cupcakes have developed even greater panache. Like home-baked meatloaf and real mashed potatoes, they are terribly chic. . . . They are often coated in fudge or caramel and might have a candied violet or white chocolate shavings on top. |
There was a need for a book to tell busy people how to make a cake better, |
They're a taste of your past, ... crave a taste of home. |
When you look at a cupcake, you've got to smile. |
