TWD - Double-Decker Salted Caramel Cake

This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is Double-Decker Salted Caramel Cake. Dorie describes this as caramel upon caramel, and she’s right - a caramel cake is filled and frosted with caramel icing. However, as she rightly says, the slight bitterness of the caramel means that the cake is not too sweet.
 

The cake is cut in half and filled with icing to make it double decker. The icing is made with icing sugar and homemade caramel sauce. For some contrast, I topped my cake with white chocolate bits.

This is a moist, light cake with yummy caramelised edges, and the gooey caramel frosting adds that bit extra. I liked this cake, but wouldn’t go so far as saying I loved it. It’s one for the caramel lovers.

TWD - Goat Cheese-Black Pepper Quick Bread

 This week’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Goats Cheese-Black Pepper Quick Bread.

This involves making a simple quick bread, and mixing through goats cheese chunks and chopped mint.

I quartered the recipe to make four muffins instead of a single large loaf.

This quick bread is absolutely delicious - I highly recommend it.
