 Amy's bookshelf: 2024
So so good! Orla and Kate are long-time best friends off on a girls' weekend away. Kate is a bit of a player who is trying to get back at her soon-to-be-ex, causing her to spend frivolously and do drugs and hook-ups. Orla is a new mom ex...
Parts were a screaming 5 and parts were like “what?” And just irritated me. It is a Groundhog Day premise about a family of four - the mom is caught up in her own life and missing all that is going on around her with her kids and then he...

Red, White, Blue and ChocolateToday I decided to enter the L.E.N.S Photo Challenge… The theme is Red, White and Blue. I took this picture of the desserts at my nephew’s graduation party. The front one is the Costco Chocolate Cake and then the Strawberry Trifle by my mom’s close friend. Last is Dan’s Chocolate Cake (that I’m trying to get the recipe for).
Swing by and see other Red White and Blue entries.  17 comments to Red, White, Blue and Chocolate |

OH MY! That trifle looks absolutely delectable.
Use any chocolate cake recipe (I used a devil’s food boxed cake mix) to make two 9″ cakes. Create four layers by slicing each cake in half. Spread seedless raspberry jam on each layer followed by a thick layer of chocolate ganache (use whatever bittersweet chocolate you prefer and heat half as much cream, add the broken chocolate to the hot cream and let it sit until melted, when all melted stir together). Spread the ganache over the top and sides of the assembled cake. Grate white chocolate and coat sides of cake. Add fresh berries and a sprig of mint as a garnish. Top each slice with fresh whipped cream.
