Triple Layer Parsnip & Cranberry Cake
This cake was exactly what 2020 needed. I won't lie, it has been a tough year and we were going into Thanksgiving with a holiday which would look like no other Turkey Day before. With less folks and less fanfare, I didn't really need to create a celebration of a cake like this one - albeit it was this week's selection for the cooking group "Cook the book Fridays". While it may appear tone deaf with the chaos around us to focus on a cake, participating in the online blogging group, getting a sweet comment from delightful Dorie herself, keeping the routine of blogging and posting when all of the rest of routines seem upended, and of course thinking of my mother as I search for an offset spatula and find that I now have hers....makes this much more to me than simply baking a cake. And for that I am very, very THANKFUL. Another treat from this recipe is the add on for the sugared cranberries. Seriously, these were a revelation in my house. Simple syrup and
