Since Halloween is this Wednesday(!), I couldn't resist sharing this little gem from the SprinkleBakes book. Believe it or not, this is a delicious Black Forest Cake! It's one of my favorite recipes in the book and a great "trick" for your Halloween party buffet.
(I think it would make a great Valentine's day cake, too!)
Even though I'm not sharing the recipe online quite yet, it's all broken down in step-by-step pictures and easy to understand instructions in the SprinkleBakes book. And I'm giving away 5 copies!
Contest is open worldwide.
Winners will be contacted via email and winner names will be displayed in this post.

ReplyDeleteI have a soft spot for Child's Play with tootsie rolls and dots. I get excited every time I see it!
ReplyDeleteYour anatomical heart cake looks disgusting...but I bet it tastes soooo good!
ReplyDeleteMy sister and I always used to spend a good hour or so after trick-or-treating to trade and dole out our candies between the two of us. I went for quality, she went for quantity. I always hoarded my chocolate until Christmas, or until my sister or my mom found it!
ReplyDeleteI have been jonesing for this book for so long....
I love getting full sized chocolate bars and I love giving witches fingers :)
ReplyDeletehome-made chocolates, filled with blood red cherry filling, that leaves every kid looking like a vampire.

ReplyDeleteWow, that's amazing! And who doesn't love a peanut butter cup :)
ReplyDeleteI love when it's Reese Peanut Butter Pumpkin time of year!
ReplyDeleteI love caramels! I also love making them!
ReplyDeleteI look at all your pretty pictures and drool! Even over this heart cake which appeals to my inner murderess! I miss Halloween even if I'll only miss it this year for being out of the USA!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Halloween is not a very famous celebration in my country but I love anything made with chocolate, if it is home made even better!
ReplyDeleteI love making Halloween themed desserts. One of my favorites is the graveyard cake. It's the same as dirt cake (pudding covered in crushed Oreo cookies) but with scary additions like Milano cookies for gravestones, gummy worms, and marshmallows on toothpicks as ghosts!
ReplyDeleteThat cake is perfectly creepy.
ReplyDeleteBack in my trick-or-treating days I was partial to hershey's cookies and cream bars, but you can't go wrong with reese's :)
My fav treats are brownies and popcorn balls. When I was a girl, my mom knew a lady who made popcorn balls with chunks of caramel and marshmallow. The best chewy things ever and when paired with bits of dark chocolate brownie? Heaven!
ReplyDeleteGrowing up, it was Skittles, or Starbursts. Today may favorite would have to be Snickers:)
ReplyDeleteThis is so disgustingly great! I love it! The styling is spot on!
ReplyDeleteI was craving a Butterfinger yesterday and went to my 13 bags of candy to realize - I didn't buy Butterfingers :( Had to settle for 3 Musketeers.
I love to give out a mixture of Snickers, Twix and 3 Musketeers bars. Some years we get a lot of trick-or-treaters, and sometimes we only get a few. When I give away our favorite candy, we really enjoy any leftovers!
ReplyDeleteI love anything with chocolate and peanuts or peanut butter! I've also been on a kitkat binge lately...
ReplyDeleteHope everyone is staying safe through the storm this week!
I love giving (and eating) homemade gingerbread skeltons. They're so easy and perfect for halloween!
ReplyDeleteCaramel apples!
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother and I would make pop corn balls!! I still carry on the tradition :)
ReplyDeleteI just love candy corn. I know it is just sugar, but I can't get enough around halloween.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite treat to make and give away is the recently discovered pumpkin cream puffs.
ReplyDeletelove those little Mary Jane peanut butter taffy things. so many people hate them, but I love them!
ReplyDeleteCandy corn. But I am going to try to make my own this year!
ReplyDeleteKat said...
ReplyDeleteButterfingers - a deliciously sweet chocolatey-peanut butter crunch!
In Catalonia we love eating "panellets" on All Saints' Day. They are like small cookies and the original recipe includes marzipan and ground almonds. They are so yummy! ^^
ReplyDeleteI'll go for English toffee.
ReplyDeleteSnickers! They are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for carmel apple suckers!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was little we felt like we really hit the jackpot when someone put a can of pop in our treat bag.

ReplyDeleteI used your instructions to make my own hearts for Halloween! Look > http://bakestress.blogspot.com/2012/10/anatomical-heart-cake.html
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration!
My favorite used to be white chocolate kit kats, but with this pregnancy, it would have to be anything with milk chocolate and peanut butter. Yum!
ReplyDeleteGrape Tootsie Pops!
ReplyDeleteI actually have never been to any Halloween parties before because it's not a big thing except an excuse to play dress up. But, I would love to give or receive toffee apples. Never eaten before!
ReplyDeleteThis cake looks sufficiently creepy! The cherries on the side are a nice touch too!
ReplyDeleteSome things never change, I always liked the chewy candy rather than the chocolate bars. However some things do change, now I buy them myself and eat more of them than I give away to trick or treaters!
My favorite Halloween treat had to be the Reese's PB cups. They were always the first things gone out of my treat bag :) Plus I would haggle with all the other candy I had to get my brothers Reese cups too!
ReplyDeletei loveee reese's!
ReplyDeleteI love to get SweeTarts and Smarties!
ReplyDelete"Flancati" - national sweet pastry dessert from back home.
ReplyDeleteWow looks so cool! Am very curious about the recipe. My favourite Halloween present is homemade candy :)

Caramel Apples! Best thing about halloween!
ReplyDeleteCaramel apples!
ReplyDeleteI love double bubble gum! You know the kind that you eat for approx. 3 minutes and then it turns all tough and gross? Yep, that's the kind! (I don't eat it after that... probably why I can go through a massive bag in like 3 days).
ReplyDeleteI like to get anything with caramel (except snickers, eww) or peanut butter. I love giving people homemade cookies at the Halloween party I have every year. Also, this book is on my Christmas list!
ReplyDeleteGet and Give: Reese's PB cups. YUM!

ReplyDeletelove to make pumpkin whoopie pies for my hubby :)
ReplyDeleteKit kats are my absolute favorite. But chocolate is really the only requirement :)
ReplyDeleteI like to give and get different things actually! I love, love love to get candy corn in my bag ('cause I'm just too ashamed to buy them myself) and I like to give out Tootsie Rolls (because my Mother loves them) and Eyeball truffles to the children of my neighbors (kinda sad the way you can't give out homemade candies to just anyone these days, eh?).
ReplyDeleteReese Cups are my favorite but anything chocolat gets my undivided attention!
ReplyDeletepumpkin muffins
ReplyDeleteKit Kats!!!
ReplyDeleteTrick or treaters always get full-sized bars at our house. I get a variety pack, because I fondly remember bartering with my siblings afterwards, so variety is important ;)

ReplyDeletechocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate :)
ReplyDeleteSmarties are my favorite candy that only appear at Halloween

ReplyDeleteCaramel Apple Pops! My next endeavor is to make my own!
ReplyDeleteI love to get homemade popcorn balls!!
ReplyDeleteI love Reese's peanut butter cups. Original crinkle-edge cups are fine, but I looooove the pumpkin shaped ones. (Although the egg-shaped ones at Easter are my very, very favorite!)

ReplyDeleteChocolate. Good chocolate if possible.

I love to make (and give, otherwise I'm in trouble) frosted sugar cookies in the shape of pumpkins, dusted with orange and green sugar

ReplyDeleteScary gummy worms!
ReplyDeleteI live in Israel so we don't quite trick-or-treat, however we do have Purim - a holiday in which children dress up in costumes and exchange gift baskets (occurs in February/March) - so my favorite thing to get in those baskets is Reese's cups.
