Most people I know cook out for Father’s Day, steaks, burgers, brats in beer…you know..MEAT.

And dads tend to be pretty easy going when it comes to dessert..if it is sweet and simple..and has chocolate added it is good.

Is that just our family? I hope not! LOL! Give Marc a steak, a baked potato or a roasted ear of sweet corn, and a generous slice of chocolate cake and he is a happy, happy man.

I thought I would highlight some of the classically dad oriented desserts on Baking Delights today, in case you are trying to figure out what to do.

Mile High buttermilk cake would be awesome but I suggest you frost it with bittersweet chocolate frosting.

Triple Layer Devils Food cake is another good choice.

Classic Yellow cake is…well…classic.

Toffee Dark Chocolate Bundt cake is quick and easy.

For the dad that wants to be impressed there is the Bostini Cream Pie that we did for Daring Bakers.

Bittersweet Chocolate Cake with Orange Curd and Ganache is simple but awesome and has great flavor combos.

Easy Chocolate Sheet Cake

Perfect Party Cake has great flavor and a great buttercream recipe.

Hope this  helps you to decide what to do.  Enjoy your dad, let him know he is special.  Life is short.
