Baking For the Birthday

Today I BAKEd

My hubby requested a German Chocolate Cake for his birthday and since I am soooo against store bought cakes (simply because I think when you buy a cake from the grocery who knows what could be in it)... So I decided to make a 3 layer chocolate mousse / traditional german chocolate filling cake...

3 1/3 hours later............the cake was complete and so was my excitement for him to see it on Friday.. Now if I could just figure out where to stash this darn thing..

Notice the Bears Helmet on the top.... "what can I say we live in Chicago and should you be suprised we are avid Bears Fans"
