The holidays are officially here and I don’t know about you, but all that really means for me is that it’s peppermint mocha season. Yes, my sister (very lovingly…) calls me a basic “B” because my end of year seasons are timed to the Starbucks menu, but we all know that when that pumpkin spice and peppermint mocha latte come out, who’s first on that line? You, me and everyone in-between! And this year, I’ve learned two very important things: It does definitely get chilly in Texas and even though that chill doesn’t last too long (thank goodness), it’s just enough for me to start craving some combo of peppermint and chocolate. And this Peppermint Mocha Cake totally hits the spot!!
