Happy birthday hassoun

It's done!!! My first ever fondant covered cake is done!!! Ina Garten's chocolate cake with Nutella butter cream icing. Hope it tastes as good as it looks. 

It's taken me one week to get this baby ready !!

So this how the cake looked when we cut through it 

The moist fluffy crumbly cake went beautifully with the flavourful Nutella buttercream filling. The girls loved it and my husband too. He licked his plate clean !!!!

So the Nutella buttercream icing recipe is as follows : 

1 cup Nutella 

1 stick butter

11/2 cups powder sugar

11/2 tsp vanilla 

2-4 tbsp heavy cream 

Beat together butter and Nutella until creamy. Mix in vanilla extract. Add in powdered sugar and mix well. Add cream until required consistency is achieved.
