I’m having a hard time taking in the fact that it’s nearly mid-June already you guys. Is it just me?

I’m not actually sure how I feel about it being halfway through the year already because I’m pretty sure I’ve completed about zero items from my new year’s resolution list. Okay, so I may have been a little overly ambitious when I made that list, but I’ve still got time to finish some of them right? Oh, and guess what today is? It's National German Chocolate Cake Day!!!!

I’m excited that to be this far in the year though because October through December is my favorite and I can't wait for the holidays! (That's something you may have figured out if you saw my last post Pumpkin Spice French Toast + Vanilla Kahlúa Syrup (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT) I mean, could someone please just speed up time and put me in October?

German Chocolate Cake Ding-Dongs! #chocolate.gif

So according to everyone who's tried this cake, it’s one of my greatest creations ever! I actually have a friend who made it for a large group of people when she went to Norway and it was a huge success. Guys, she told me they gave her a standing applause over it, and I don’t know, the fact that something I shared could be creating a ripple effect and bringing so much happiness is almost too much for my brain to compute. It’s become something of a famed dessert among my local friends as well.

With that being said about my original cake recipe, let me explain this version. I didn't want to try to fix something that obviously isn’t broken, I just wanted celebrate how awesome it is. What I came up with was a hybrid between my german chocolate cake and another hugely popular thing I’ve made before, DING-DONGS!

See, so I didn’t change the basic recipe, I just sort of turned it inside out in the hopes of inspiring you guys with something new and unique to try. Who couldn’t love a little higher ratio of chocolate to cake, and also, mini-sized anything is always more fun <<- FACT.

Your weekend seriously needs them and you know it. Ding-dongs for the win!

As always, the recipe is available upon request, and I always give an upvote for the first one.
