Mother's Day Breakfast!



Jordan had to work this weekend so i knew that i would be on my own for most of mother's day. I decided to treat myself to a decadent dessert and this is what i came up with. It was a chocolate cake (www.hersheys.com/recipes/recipes/detail.asp?id=184 ) with two layers of blackberry filling (I just thickened some fresh blackberries into a compote) and one layer of cream filling (www.evilshenanigans.com/2009/02/cream-filling-for-cupcake/ ), then i covered the whole thing in a chocolate ganache (www.ourbestbites.com/2010/03/super-easy-chocolate-ganache.html ). It turned out pretty dang tasty! Now i'm just wondering what to do with the whole thing. I'd like to have it every morning for breakfast this week, but i'm thinking that 's probably not a good idea. I wonder how many weight watchers points one slice is? My day ended with Jordan coming home from work with flowers and chocolates in his hands. It was a wonderful day!
