Over the weekend, we had "steak night"! It was an amazing combination of excellent food, excellent wine and excellent company! We finished off the meal with two desserts for our guests. We had a homemade dark chocolate cake and a pink lemonade bundt cake. We had to share the recipe for this pink lemondae cake! It was a great summer option for these warms evenings and it looks incredibly enticing!
If you are having company over for dinner, always have options. Not everyone prefers chocolate cake, however, who in their right mind would turn it down. Enjoy this recipe! It was absolutely amazing!
