Instructions
Cake Preparation
- Bake and cool the red (green) velvet cake and cheesecake according to recipe directions. Remember-- no need to make the frosting for the red velvet cake OR the graham cracker crust for the cheesecake. Simply bake the cheesecake in a lined 9-inch round cake pan.
- Once cooled, layer the 3 cakes alternately (green velvet, cheesecake, green velvet) on cake plate/stand.
- Frost with Cool Whip Frosting around the sides, but not on the top. Chill cake in the refrigerator while making the ganache.
- Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips and the creamer in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute. Stir chocolate until melted and combined with creamer. If necessary, heat for another 30 seconds to melt chocolate completely.
- Allow the ganache to cool for 30 minutes and then spread over top of the cake.
- Allow cake to chill for at least 3 hours before serving.
Notes
Make sure to use green food coloring in the red velvet cake recipe for the perfect color.
