My Diane Mott Davidson re-creation of the recipe for Double Shot Chocolate Cake just won 2nd place in the Bittersweet Baking contest! I’m very happy with the result. I don’t think I’ve ever tried so hard to make something both look and taste as perfect as possible. Since I’m the 2nd runner up, do you suppose I can still get that espresso machine if the winner fails to fulfill their Queen of Baking duties…or you know, takes some overly sexy cupcake images? I kid…I kid… Now I will anxiously await my “handsome reward.” Who wants to come over for fancy machine made coffee?
