His idea of playing always involves adding hot sauce to food.<br /><br />I'll have to try adding flavorings to the frosting the next time I make cake...caramel would be good, wouldn't it? Or maybe peppermint? But not coffee...not for me.<br /><br />I always thought I was weird until I heard that liking or not liking coffee has to do with your genetic makeup. If you have (or don't have - I forget which) a certain gene in your DNA, coffee tastes terrible to you. Some people disguise the bitterness with cream and sugar, but for other people, nothing helps. That's me.<br /><br />So I don't drink coffee, or mocha, or eat Tiramisu or (shudder) coffee flavored ice cream...but I'm all over that chocolate!Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-79844226966153900622012-12-28T08:04:58.277-05:002012-12-28T08:04:58.277-05:00You know, I only ever think of using cream cheese ...You know, I only ever think of using cream cheese icing on carrot cake. Guess I need to expand my horizons! And speaking of adding coffee to cake -- that reminds me of a super mocha cake recipe I used to make but I've lost the recipe. It was the best chocolate cake ever. Anyone have a mocha cake recipe?Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-20401422636798897062012-12-28T06:48:40.422-05:002012-12-28T06:48:40.422-05:00And for the gluten free among us, I found a chocol...And for the gluten free among us, I found a chocolate cake made from coconut flour from one of the other LI authors!
