Cookies and Candids

Tara and I made Cake Balls again, which are officially going to be called Les Gateaux Chocolat from now on, since that sounds much fancier…And, we recently went to Brussels and spent tons of time in fancy chocolate shops and this new name sounds much more European, and let’s be honest, that’s just more appealing.

Because Les Gateaux Chocolat is best made from left-over cake and frosting, we used orange-chocolate cupcakes and chocolate peanut butter frosting that Tara had made before I arrived here, and then of course we dipped them in a heavy layer of dark chocolate. Even though we knew that chocolate peanut butter is delicious, and orange chocolate too, we were unsure what the final combination of flavors would be like; in the end, it turned out great and the flavors worked really well together!
