Ask a question about this stepI made this for a Mexican themed birthday party this past weekend and got rave reviews! It is melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I saw the comments from felony about the butter and cayenne pepper and thought they sounded great too, so I used melted butter instead and doubled the cayenne. It turned out delicious and I will definitely be making this again!
Just tried this at home, filled the house with gorgeous smells :)
Definitely going to make again, but next time using melted butter instead of oil - to make for a better "mouth feel", and up the chilli amount to really taste the kick (very hard to source Mexican chocolate down here in Aus - especially on a wintry Friday night!)
This cinnamon struesel on this looks so yummy! (this is Kelsey btw, it says I'm logged in as Abra Bennett on this screen??)
I'm also seeing the same weirdness with the log on name...Anyways, I had to wait ALL NIGHT LONG to eat this cake because I brought it into work. It was yummy!
