Recipe Review
hisvictoria from Springfield Area, MO
The first time I made this recipe I followed ingredients as listed. I had a very difficult time trying to figure out how to make the chocolate curls, but otherwise it was a total success.
Note: I prefer to leave out the pecans.
The second time I decided that I would try filling the cake with raspberry puree. On the bottom layer I piped a "wall" of icing around the top edge of the cake and then slowly poured on the raspberry. I topped it with the second layer and did the same process. I was careful not to put too much filling because otherwise it would seep out and turn the white frosting pink!
My fiance specifically requests this cake for his birthday, and everyone (more than 20 people now) have tried this and said it was the best cake they have ever had and you can really tell it is homemade (in a good way).
CUPCAKES! I have made cupcakes using the exact same recipe. bake at the same oven temperature but it only takes about 12 minutes until they are done.
The only photo I have is of the cake that is not filled and that time I didn't use white chocolate.
