BONNIE BUTTER CAKE WITH FRENCH SILK FROSTING
One of my husband's favorite cakes is a butter cake with chocolate frosting. In fact, it's pretty much a favorite with just about everyone. I have to say, though, a yellow cake mix just doesn't have the same "pure" flavor that a homemade one does. So, when I make this, I always make it from scratch. This is one of the best...

FRENCH SILK LAYER CAKE
We just can't get enough French silk pie, which is why we couldn't help ourselves-we had to create it anew, in cake form. Expect all the smooth texture, creaminess and rich chocolate taste of the original pie, but in a whole new format. This fudgy triple-layer cake is filled and frosted with chocolate Swiss meringue buttercream frosting, piped with whipped cream and crowned with chocolate curls, so it's indulgent, impressive and sure to be the star of your next holiday or special occasion!

FRENCH SILK CHOCOLATE PIE (OR PARFAIT)
Although eaten refrigerated, not frozen, this rich dessert melts in your mouth like ice cream! One of it's special assets is being able to make it ahead and freeze to have on hand for special occasions. Mother made this often, and it is still my favorite dessert. Cooking time includes chilling time. Variation: For Gluten-intolerant people: Omit pie crust and spoon filling into individual parfait glasses and garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings!
