After summer, December is easily my favorite time of year in the city. The streets are lined with twinkling lights and there’s an energetic buzz you can’t ignore. This time of year I’m prepping for the festivities, buying presents, picking out the perfect holiday dress, and looking forward to getting together with friends and family. If you’re anything like me and don’t like to arrive empty handed at parties, this cake is a (believe it or not) fairly easy option for wowing your host!
