Candy Cane Cake
Our whipped cream cake sprinkled with crushed peppermint might just become your next holiday tradition
An angel food cake slathered with whipped cream and crushedcandy ― it’s been a favorite dessert in Molly Watson’s familyfor three generations. “It was my childhood birthday request yearafter year,” Watson says.
“Our topping was crushed toffee, but a few years ago atChristmas, I switched over to candy canes. It became our newholiday classic.”
For a shortcut version, start with a store-bought angel foodcake. The very fine candy “dust” left over from crushing the candycanes is delicious sprinkled on vanilla ice cream or stirred intohot cocoa.
