Last Wednesday, my mom and grandmother returned from a month long stay in the Philippines. My Auntie Lyn arrived at my mom's house early in the morning to start cooking, giving the travelers a nourishing meal after a long trip. Originally, I planned on baking a batch of brownies, but since both my grandmother and my aunt celebrated their birthdays in March, I thought I'd surprise them with a cake instead.Decorating needed to be somewhat simple since it was the middle of a hectic work week. Plus, the sweet factor had to be low because my grandmother doesn't like overly sweet baked goods. Gluten-free chocolate cake to the rescue.
Auntie Lyn and Grandma were delighted with their gift, and my aunt complimented my cake decorating skills. Score!
