CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE WITH PINK PEPPERMINT CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
Blogger Arlene Cummings of Cooking With Sugar shares a favorite recipe. Pretty, festive desserts are one of the things that make holiday time so much fun. I love baking and serving this beautiful cake because the pink icing against the rich chocolate cake is just beautiful and the peppermint kick makes it extra special.

Frost side and top of cake with thin coat frosting; refrigerate 10 minutes to allow frosting to firm up. Frost side and top of cake with remaining frosting. Arrange whole peppermints then sprinkle crushed peppermint around side and top of cake.
