This cake was a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different frosting.

This cake was a breeze to make and it turned out perfectly! I used a bundt pan and it came out so pretty. The peppermint flavor was just right and the cream cheese frosting was the perfect complement.

This cake was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still pretty good. I think I would have liked it better if I had used semisweet chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate chips.

I've never been a huge fan of candy canes, but this cake changed my mind! The peppermint flavor was subtle and not overpowering, and the cake itself was moist and fluffy. I'll definitely be making this again for Christmas.
