Glittering Pine Forest Cake

Written By Verlaine McCann

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 4 large eggs

  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour pan with cocoa powder thoroughly before baking; set aside. 


On high speed, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition; add vanilla, peppermint extract and salt. With mixer on low, gradually add flour, beating just until combined (do not over mix).

Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in pan 10 minutes. Invert and turn upright to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar and ample edible glitter.
