the cake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then invert onto a rack to completely cool. Chill the layers in the freezer for about 30 minutes, until firm. To assemble the cake, remove the cake layers from the freezer and brush with the remaining Godiva Liqueur before spreading 3/4 cup of buttercream between each layer. Spread the remaining buttercream over the top and sides of the cake, which has been placed on a serving plate. Serve immediately, or refrigerate if necessary. If refrigerating, remove 1 hour prior to serving. Garnish with shaved chocolate. Serves twelve. webmaster@godiva. com Recipe By :
