200th post: Coffee Cake with Chocolate Ganache

Tweet

Hello friends, feeling so rejoiced to share my 200th post at my favourite space J

Since last month I have been away at my parental home so didn’t get much time to post regularly.

For my 200th post, I decided to prepare coffee flavoured cake as my mom loves coffee a lot.

And the great part is that she joined me in making this cake and shared my happiness...

I thank all my friends and fellow bloggers who took their precious time to follow and appreciate my blog all this while.
