Peppermint Chocolate Cake: Happy Anniversary!

Today is my Anniversary, and this Peppermint Chocolate Cake is divine! How fun that the Retro Baker's Chocolate Ad is is all about Janet! Well, yes, it's all about me!

I love these Baker's Chocolate Ads that tell a story. The reality, though, is that they're pretty sexist. This ad dates from 1938, but the recipe is still great. FYI: I wasn't around in 1938.

The recipe looks yummy! I love retro advertisements and cookbooks. My favorite author Cleo Colyle posted this on Facebook.I've bookmarked your blog.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to sit down with a nice cup of coffee and enjoy this cake together? My parents were married in 1936 and I have a photograph of them in swimming suits like these. I don't have any photos of mom baking a cake, though. Maybe that is why I started baking at an early age!
