For me, the joy is actually about baking and making the cakes, and usually the even bigger joy is watching someone else enjoy them. I began to wonder if a buttercream cake would taste even better that way. Aside from the ganache drizzle (which, oops, isn’t as smooth as it should be, so we’ll talk about that!) Do you think that this cake would taste even better because of its unusual shape, even though all of the parts are the same as some of my round cakes?

This stuff is silly. The short version of the recipe goes like this. Espresso Chocolate Mousse | Flour Child. Last night, it rained. It sounded like magic and love and dreaming and soup and kittens. I put on my fluffiest sweatshirt and cuddled up in bed and watched super classy shows like Jersey Shore and Teen Mom 2. Keepin’ things elegant, you know. I was joyous; absolutely blissful.
Until, without any warning, some scary evil malicious malevolent forceful force came over me and I was craving chocolate frosting something fierce. No amount of Gossip Girl was going to help me and I knew it, so I gave in. It’s like eating chocolate clouds off a spoon.
