If you love a good glass of wine and also have an appreciation for dessert, this blackberry red wine cake will be right up your alley. From Lindsay of the blog Love and Olive Oil, the alcoholic treat is also beautifully decorated, with dropping chocolate frosting and edible gold stars.
Perfect for celebrating a birthday (but only if that person is of legal drinking age), the red wine cake truly transforms a regular chocolate cake. The recipe substitutes black coffee for a fruity spirit, which resulted in a "decadently moist" chocolate that is sure to set tongues wagging.
With layers of blackberry preserves, whipped vanilla butter cream and a dramatic dark chocolate ganache to drizzle on top, the boozy dessert cannot go wrong.
