My thoughts:
German-based (but widely available hither inward the US) Bahlsen late invited me to operate into their “Let the Good Times Roll” contest. I was invited to purpose their chocolate-dipped Waffeletten cookies to brand a festive, easy-to-make birthday cake to celebrate the 125th birthday of Bahlsen. My ain birthday simply passed as well as I had been thinking a lot of nearly the birthday cakes I've had over years as well as idea it would hold upward fun to seek my paw at a cake incorporating cookies that I already loved.To me birthday cakes are a simple, homemade affair. Growing upward nosotros e'er had a from-scratch chocolate or hot milk cake (who wants a cake mix cake for their birthday? Blah.) that my mom would oftentimes tiptop alongside whatever toy nosotros were into at the moment. I recollect i pinkish cake topped alongside little My Little Pony "flutter pony" figures that I loved. No fancy, over-the-top icing or decorations as well as for certain no yucky fondant. I wanted to recapture that homey, free, happy feeling alongside this cake. I skipped My Little Pony toppers this time, but I created a cookie-studded cake hence slow a small-scale could brand it. Bundt cakes are my go-to for uncomplicated cakes these days because they don't require to iced, manifestly or alongside a basic glaze is perfection. The cookies "melt" within but furnish a flare-up of chocolate flavour when you lot seize alongside teeth into them. The result: a moist, chocolate-y cake that is especial plenty for whatever birthday but doesn't require a culinary score to make!
Full disclosure: Bahlsen sent me 2 boxes of cookies to experient alongside as well as I take heed I volition too have a Tiffany cake plate for my efforts at closed to indicate inward the future.
