I made this Chocolate Velevet Cake with Peppermint Buttercream and Peppermint Bark for a Christmas party. It looked just like a beautiful present ready to be unwrapped on Christmas morning.
In 2007 my husband Rick and I moved from suburban Chicago to Marshall, Minnesota. My transition from city girl to country girl has been eased by lots and lots of culinary therapy. I love nothing better than lavishly covering a homemade cake with creamy frosting, baking cookies with my grandkids, or making delicious dinners for my family and friends.
