Recipe first posted on The Recipe Critic. Here we are! The countdown is on (okay, so my countdown has been on for a few months back, especially since I started testing holiday recipes in September!). When this post goes live, I plan to be somewhere warm and tropical with my love and my little loves, soaking up some R&R before Christmas and I hope that you can find some time to relax with your loved ones as well this holiday season! (Follow me on Instagram if you want to see what we’re up to!) You will have to forgive me if I’m not responding to comments here or on social media, or emails as quickly as normal — I will be back soon enough and then I’ll be busy playing catch up. In the meantime — this cake! Friends, the BEST chocolate cake in all the land comes from the Hershey test kitchen. No, this is not sponsored and yes, I love Hershey and all the work they do for us — but it’s just true. The Hershey Black Magic Cake is the best chocolate cake there is. A lot of people have reposted it and I’m sure a lot of people have claimed it as their own. Because it is the best. The cake is so rich and fudgy — you really need nothing to top it. But if you’re going to go all out I say why not a white chocolate whipped cream, crushed candy canes and chocolate shavings? Because it’s the holidays y’all! (<— that felt wrong) Chocolate and mint has always been one of my favorite combinations, especially at Christmas time. These Mint Chocolate No Bake Cookies, Mint Chocolate Oreos, and Almost No Bake Mint Chocolate Cheesecake are some of my other favorites! I hope you enjoy 🙂 Create an account easily save your favorite content, so you never forget a recipe again.
