Happy Birthday to the Boyfriend!

Its the boyfriend's big two nine! The last year of his twenties...so sad. But I don't think he is really that bothered by it. I’m not making dinner, instead we are heading out to eat tonight. But he did request a cake. This is the cake I made last weekend when we had dinner with his family. So for him to request this after just eating it and not being a huge fan of sweets it must be good. And being that I am so kind I thought I would share it with you.





It’s a Chocolate Whisky Cake with Raspberries and it’s not actually my recipe. You can find the full recipe here;

It’s a very rich, dense dark chocolate cake with raspberry filling and a ganache like frosting. Both the batter and ganache have whisky in them. If you aren't a big whisky drinker and don't know what to use I used the boyfriends favorite Bulleit Bourbon Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. It worked perfect and tasted pretty amazing.
