My husband’s family is a little quirky with their desserts. You know how some people dunk their donuts, others dip oreos and graham crackers in milk . . . well, Dan and his family drown their desserts in milk. They just don’t eat a piece of cake. They put it in a bowl and cover it with milk.
So when we were hosting a party for my father-in-law’s birthday this past Sunday, it only seemed fitting that we serve dessert in his tradition.
This chocolate cake was amazing and so decadent! Go to Art of Desserts for the recipe.
The Takeaway: Are you throwing a birthday party? What does your guest of honor love that you can “exploit” into a fun dessert table?

This is a really neat idea!!! My husbands family loves to do that with their cake as well. I will have to try and remember this the next time I host. 🙂
I hope you don’t mind I just pinned this post.
What a fun idea! Thanks for posting!
I love this! My husband doesn’t do this with cake, but he does drown his Oreos. For him, they aren’t worth eating if they aren’t mushy and full of milk! A dip just isn’t enough.
I am so glad to hear that my husband’s family is not alone!! 🙂
