Meredith made a "Half Cake" for Caroline's half-birthday. So what you see in the first picture is the full cake!
She did 1/3 the Cakes by Courtney mint chocolate cake[@rev] with rounding as needed. Note that the cake itself doesn't have any mint. For the cake, she used hot water and 1/2 tsp of espresso powder.
For the frosting, Meredith used the brown butter frosting[@rev] again but again didn't use evaporated milk and instead just used whole milk. She almost made the same mistake[@rev] again but caught that it is a whole stick of butter. She also again adjusted the salt to match salted butter. See 2020-10-18[@rev] for notes on major changes.
The cake was very moist! It seemed maybe underdone when we took it out but it was perfect. (~24 minutes). It “collapsed” down but really, just back to flat. And it stood up well to the very-flavorful frosting!
It was all just very good!
