TWD Chocolate Banded Torte


Since our dads birthday fell on this recipe week.................we made it for him! He chose vanilla ice cream to go with that extremely chocolaty ganache.

Our voting on this recipe was less liked then many of the other TWD recipes..............weird because we all love chocolate!
Maybe if we had a different ice cream, we would have liked it better? Also the amount the recipe serves, was WAY TOO MUCH! Yikes way to much ganache for me!

We did encounter a few "problems" with our torte as well. The layers were very hard to cut (we did use a hot knife) and our layers were uneven. Most likely why our layers were uneven is our own fault, in not letting them freeze as long as they needed. But we were in a hurry since we had been gone all day:-)

We have already tried the PB Oatmeal cookies....................very good!

Till next time!
