For the fantastic dinner gathering for six of us this past Wednesday night, I also managed to get desserts made. Both recipes were new trials for me, and the response was very encouraging from the crew.
The centerpiece was a four-layer red velvet cake, using the recipe from that most expert of food bloggers, Barry C. Parsons. The other "velvet" cake recipes I've made from his website (lemon velvet and chocolate velvet) have been absolutely outstanding, and this red velvet cake was right there with the rest of them.
The chocolate decadence ice cream was a novelty, both for its intense chocolate-y-ness as well as for its thick consistency. It might have even have been just a bit much, but then again, there are plenty of fans of chocolate around here.
