Chocolate Stout Cake

Last week we celebrated my beer-loving, hard working, and oh so 

appreciated husband's birthday.  So, naturally I made him a 10 pound 

beast of a cake and shared it with both of our families and eight friends.  

That's a lot of cake.

As much as I would love to tell you that I stuck to my dairy-free diet 

and made a cake from scratch, I can't.  I made cake from a box.  

Similar to this one.

Had I have had more time or a husband who doesn't love 

box cake I would make the one I found on Blogging Over Thyme.  

Next time I'm definitely going to make this one! 

Yum!

Also, cheers to all the moms out there!  

This would be a great cake to celebrate with!
