Oh My! It is August 31st and the last day for me to get this challenge completed 😬. Nothing like waiting to the last minute😉

I got incredibly lucky this month, because Sally chose an easy challenge for our August installment. If you have ever baked a cookie, and made frosting, then this is a fun and simple project! In fact, the hardest part of this challenge was choosing which of Sally’s flavor combinations to make. 😊

My hubby’s birthday is also in August, so I chose flavors that I knew he would like. I made Sally’s Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe, as written in the link above. The only difference was that I included white chocolate chips, along with the semi sweet ones, and made mine a 9 inch, 3 layer cake.

I also made her Chocolate Peanut Butter frosting, yum 😋

After that, which was very little work, all I had to do was assembled and decorate!

I kept the decorations simple, as this was for my husband (who does not like sprinkles😳)

This flavor combo was a hit with the whole family, and it was a fun alternative to the standard ice cream cake he usually requests for his birthday.

Next month’s challenge involves choux pastry! So I will have to be on top of my game in  September! 👩🏻‍🍳

  1. Drooling! My SIL just made my middle son a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting for his August birthday. I’m usually not a fan of chocolate cake (only brownies), it was so good. You can’t go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate. Happy Belated birthday to your husband! 🙂

  2. Oh wow, this looks amazing!! Love the depth to it, too. Mmmm could definitely go for a slice or 3 of it right now, you’ve done very well it and I’m sure the hubby loved it. Great photos too, you’ve captured your creation really nicely 🙂

  3. Where are you traveling right now? I want to send you a little something but I’m wondering if it is a good time. You might not be home to receive your parcel… I had so much fun while you were in Montreal. Miss you already! xoxo
