- 1/2 cup melted butter (cooled slightly)
- 2 tsp gingerbread spice
- 1/2 cup brewed espresso or strong coffee
- 8 oz cream cheese frosting
- 8 oz melting chocolate or candy melts
- Festive sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking pan.
- In a bowl, mix cake mix, eggs, melted butter, gingerbread spice, and espresso until smooth. Pour into the pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Crumble the cooled cake into fine pieces in a large bowl. Mix in cream cheese frosting until combined but not overly moist.
