Welcome to the month of June - it's birthday month in my family! (Hence dubbing this month "cake month") Well, it's my birthday coming up soon and my brother's birthday was this week. Which means I get practice at making delicious birthday cakes. Since my brother's a Portal fan, I decided to make him the Portal cake. Simply because I could.
In keeping with the as-accurate-to-the-game-as-possible, I followed the recipe to the letter - hence using a packet cake and bought icing... Never again, I miss making my own icing, hehe. Since I bought vanilla icing instead of more chocolate, my cake didn't end up looking anything like the Portal cake. It still was totally delicious. So I decided to call it my chocolate cookie cake.
It reminds me of cookie dough icecream...
And on the inside...
So much chocolatty goodness... It was super heavy as well, and 3 days later (after a party and everything) there's still quite a bit of this rich cake left. Mm, delicious birthday cake. So much cake this month!
(I got the recipe from Feast of Fiction)
Until next time,
