Triple Chocolate Roll Cake
For this triple chocolate roll cake recipe, a chocolate cake is wrapped around alternating stripes of white chocolate whipped cream and whipped dark chocolate mousse for great flavor and a striking presentation. Make sure to really chill your fillings before whipping—overnight would be best—or they won't fluff up properly. This takes some time and patience to make—so plan ahead when making this cake! Serve it with additional whipped cream, if desired.
Cranberry Apple Bread
This apple cranberry bread is a holiday favorite in our family. It's very festive and a wonderful breakfast bread for Thanksgiving and Christmas morning. I like to prepare the bread batter ahead of time and thaw it the night before serving it. Just pop it in the oven in the morning, and you'll have fresh breakfast bread. Enjoy!
