Hey everybody!  I’m on an airplane to Chicago right now but before I left I took some time to make you this.

I heard that Starbucks is coming out with a new flavor latte.  It’s due to roll out any day now, and it’s the first time they’ve come up with a new holiday flavor in five years.  They’re predicting it’s going to give the PSL a run for its money!

So I thought I’d be the first to jump on the CPL train and make a Chestnut Praline cake 😉

Now for the cake!  This is a brown sugar bundt cake that’s infused with coffee flavor.  And you’re going to top it with the most incredible chestnut praline sauce.  It dribbles all down the sides and forms sticky pools of delicious, bourbon-y goodness.

I’m imagining this cake all wrapped up in cellophane, with a jar of the praline sauce tucked in the middle.  What a great gift!  Or you could just serve it as a dessert for Thanksgiving dinner or at a holiday party…

I just used jarred chestnuts from my local supermarket.  They’re usually on the same shelf with the pie fillings and stuff.  You could use freshly roasted chestnuts though too!  You’re going to love the flavor.  Chestnuts are just so holiday, right?

If the new Chestnut Praline Latte is half as good as this cake, I think we’re all in for a treat!

And now for the giveaway!  I’m so grateful to MightyNest for providing me with one of these fabulous prize packs to gift to a reader:
