Admit it. Yesterday was exhausting. Standing in lines, trying to stay calm and carry on, trying to ignore social media and not let our buttons get pushed so the kiddos didn't accidentally learn some choice new phrases... You know what I'm talking about.

So the way I see it is, since we were such upstanding citizens and role models, we deserve wine. And chocolate. And cake. So why not have them all in one amazeballs package? Shiran over at Pretty Simple Sweet has a great list of simple and delish recipes for busy cooks, but her Red Wine Chocolate Cake is hands down my favorite thing in the world. If you've ever had the blends of red wine and chocolate, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

The best part is - if you have the fixin's for chocolate cake and just happen to have a leftover bottle of wine... well, you've got yourself a piece of heaven just waiting to be thrown together :-)

Check out Shiran's full recipe here and be sure to tell us how yours turned out!
