Directions
Sanders’ Chocolate Bumpy Cake, This is a very sweet rich and decadent dessert It looks very fancy when done but is pretty easy for a novice cook to put together The recipe says it serves 24 but I think that would be stretching it a bit as the slices would be rather thin to get that many Especially if you have a sweet tooth ;-), The cake part of the recipe turned out great! The recipe was easy to follow, and the cake was moist and savory I’m not sure if the fudge had the correct texture since I have never made pourable fudge but it had great flavor so no complaints there But the buttercream was a disaster!! My buttercream came out watery and almost curdled like texture Not smooth at all, I tried freezing it and seeing if that would fix anything but it was a mess Ended up throwing the whole batch away Don’t know what I did wrong, I followed the recipe Help!! I would like to try this again but what would cause my buttercream to keep all the moisture to the point where it was watery??
