Chocolate Fudge Cookies with Candy Cane Buttercream
Better late than never, right? These cookies are a great use for all your leftover candy canes lying around! Even sans the candy cane buttercream, these chocolate cookies are amazing.

For one of my roommates birthdays, Anya, I wanted to make a cake special just for her. Anya happens to be a big fan of cinnamon in desserts so I went with this Browned Butter Cake and Cinnamon Chocolate Frosting adapted from Honey & Jam. I didn’t pick up on the browned butter flavor in
