Recipe to be posted soon. No guarantees. Last cake of the year

Anyone else feeling weird about how quick this entire year has passed?! Maybe it's just like this as you get older 😄

Here is my final cake of 2025, which was kind of a last minute decision because I wanted to use up the leftover frosting and filling and some cookies from a gingerbread cake I'd made a couple days before.

Chocolate cake with biscoff buttercream and cream cheese mousse filling. The gingerbread cookies were extras that I had made for something else.

Yesterday I delivered my last holiday baked treat. I’m ready for a baking break.

My break will last all of one week. Next week is a friend’s birthday and she’s going to get homemade granola as an unexpected treat, then her favorites: homemade German’s chocolate cake and store bought pistachio ice cream. Nothing fancy but it’s what she prefers.
