This rich and decadent chocolate cake from the winter chapter of My Book is kissed with peppermint and topped with dramatic shards of peppermint bark. The cake is pure chocolate flavor with a soft, tender crumb. Paired with a silky buttercream and chocolate ganache it's basically the perfect cake to celebrate the season. Say hello to your new favorite Christmas Cake!

One of the things I enjoy most about you is that you're not afraid to admit to making a mistake. You're human, we all are. And we all goof up once in a while. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.

@myrnamiranda1006 Жыл бұрын

I second your comment. Detest “perfect videos” especially when it comes to flour. Merry Christmas everybody.

I made this cake a couple weeks ago. I and my family were completely blown away! I am a baker but have always stayed away from chocolate cake because the flavor always disappoints. But THIS cake? OMGOODNESS!!! It is perfection! I’m making another one tomorrow. lol Help! I need an intervention! 😂

Hi Jonn, I love, love, love that you show your little mistakes. It makes you more approachable. Some cooks would never do that but we're all friends here and it's great that you don't take yourself so seriously that you can be real. You're a great teacher!

@johannagillenwater616 Жыл бұрын

John, your videos are getting better and better. Meaning…. they are as entertaining as they are educational. You are capturing our hearts and minds with the content you share. Merry Christmas to you, your family and your team that produce this wonderful Channel !❤

I made this cake after receiving my personal copy of your Cookbook. I'm a home baker and entrepreneur. I changed up the design a bit and it was a stunning showstopper for my Christmas party. I love your work as it keeps me motivated. I hope that one day I get to meet you and have my copy autographed by you

John you are literally my favorite KZfaqr! You are so talented and have the most adorable personality☺️ your videos always make me laugh and you do such a wonderful job of really going into detail about how to make each component of each recipe. I’ve been baking for a while but am a novice cake decorator and it helps so much to have people like you who can help teach me in an understandable and non overwhelming way how to perfect my skills. Plus I’m jealous of your husband that he gets to eat all your delicious baked goods! Lol

So do I. Last week and then yesterday I made a batch of my favorite chocolate peppermint thumbprint cookies that are filled with a chocolate peppermint ganache. These cookies are SO good. So hard to just eat 2 or 3 lol. I love recipes that'll give you the opportunity to make them ahead of time then freeze until needed. If you're interested in the recipe just let me know. Happy Holidays...

Just wanted to add, there are very few cooking channels I will bother watching, particularly now since there are more than a few "scam misleading" cooking channels. They appear in my sidebar claiming "I eat this cake every day! No flour no eggs no oven!" Except it either tastes like a rock or they already prepared the flour egg mixture and pretend they never added it. Anyway, my point is that if John doesn't make something then I won't bother watching it!! 🥰
