Blog Challenge Day 9: Infertility Comfort Food

I'm not great at eating healthy, but I am pretty great at creating extremely unhealthy, high calorie desserts that come in handy when you want to eat your feelings after a BFN.  One of my more recent and most popular creations was a cake I named Eat Your Feelings cake.  It's a pretty simple recipe - basically a customized poke cake using boxed cake mix.

Ingredients:
Triple Fudge Cake Mix (and ingredients to prepare - eggs, oil, water)
Chocolate Syrup
Whipped Cream
Crushed Andes Mints

Direction:
Prepare the boxed cake mix as directed.  Poke holes into the top of the cake, drizzle with chocolate syrup.  Doing this while the cake is still warm helps the syrup melt into the holes.  Let cake cool, then frost with whipped cream.  Drizzle more chocolate sauce over the whipped cream and top with Andes mints.  Store in refrigerator.0

One of the best parts of this cake is that it's super easy to customize.  If you don't like Andes mints, replace them with your favorite crushed candy.  Chocolate syrup can be swapped for caramel sauce if so desired.  The possibilities are endless and delicious!
