This cake by Darla, from the kitchen of Bakingdom is amazing! It’s a pop of color and a splash of whimsy, with a creative use of eggnog that is sure to win over even a non-eggnog lover, such as Darla herself. In her own words, “The cake looks sort of homespun and old fashioned.” (Apparently, she has never seen one of my lop-sided cakes to decipher the true meaning of “homespun”). But even if I can’t quite whip up something this beautiful currently, she gives clear and practical step-by-step instructions that make me almost feel like I could do justice to this masterpiece…almost! But don’t take my word for it. Check out her site and see her beautiful photograph tutorial of this exquisite cake.

i love to smell Christmas cake
This recipe makes my heart flutter. Yes, I’m also drooling over Darla’s whimsical eggnog Christmas cake recipe. Incredibly creative. Thank you for posting it and from my family to you, a happy holiday toast:
May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your whimsical eggnog Christmas cake take the prize,
And may your holiday dinner
Stay off your thighs!
