My son, Isaac turns 11 this week. It is quite mind-blowing to think he is going to be 11! At the risk of sounding a little ridiculous, I have to say, I just don’t know where the time has gone.
Isaac has the best sense of humor, always making us laugh and living up to his name which means laughter. Anyway, when my sweet boy who brings us so much joy, told me that he did not want a bundt cake, but that he wanted a layer cake with a lot of frosting, I knew what I had to do. I decided to take a one week hiatus from making bundt cakes.
We celebrated early on the 4th because daddy was home from work, and grandparents were free! We had cake and presents, and celebrated Isaac and his life.
Here’s the cake I made:
I made a chocolate cake with a lot of chocolate butter cream. I used a chocolate fudge cake duncan hines cake mix, with 4 eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1/3 cup of oil, and chocolate pudding mix.
My chocolate butter cream recipe was taken from the wilton’s website: 1/2 cup crisco, 1/2 cup butter, 3/4 cup cocoa, 5 tbsp of chocolate milk and a bit of vanilla.
I decorated with peppermint buttercream and mint oreos because my boy loves mint and chocolate. Mmmmmm.
Guys! It was fanatastic!
