On The Square

Happy National Cake Day!
We have some big family birthdays that fall close to Thanksgiving every year, so we do the spectacular pie-a-palooza on T-day and crazy it up with cake on the weekend to celebrate. Can you say "group sugar buzz"?  ;)

My little nephew is hoping for a gooey drippy chocolatey cake feast...bonus points if it has a Disney Planes theme. My favorite cousin on the other hand has "grown out of" traditional birthday cakes and prefers something more snackable. I'm thinking a yumfully simple square pan cake is the way to go...

Now I just need to decide which one to make! What would you choose? What's your ideal birthday cake? Frosting or not? Does your birthday fall around a holiday? Do you celebrate them together?
