St. Patrick's Day Cake

It's time for another Wordless Wednesday at 5 Minutes for Mom or Wordful Wednesday on SevEn cLoWn CirCus:-)


This is just a little something I whipped up for my family for St. Patrick's Day. I had an extra chocolate cake layer that I frosted in chocolate buttercream frosting, topped with mint chocolate chips and garnished with Thin Mint Cookies and white chocolate. Look's pretty good for doing it on the fly doesn't it?
