Pumpkin Bundt Cake

Once again my love of pumpkin continues. I needed a last-minute dessert for some unexpected guests and found this recipe. It was very easy to throw together and I decided to top it with a simple powdered sugar glaze which made it even better. The cake was moist and delicious and I liked that the recipe [...]

Pumpkin cupcakes with cream cheese frosting

I love baking for others. So when it was time to bake for H work again, I was instructed to make something non-chocolate. Someone at his work isnt a chocolate fan (THE HORROR..LOL) and had kindly asked if I could make something non-chocolate for a change. So I knew with the Halloween/fall season upon us, [...]

Banana Bars

I love banana muffins, banana smoothies, banana cookies, bananas, etc…So when I saw this recipe on Foodie Two Shoes, I knew I found another banana love. These were simple to make and the cake part was A-MAZING! Then with the cream cheese frosting, I knew I had found a new go to banana recipe!
ENJOY!

Apple Spice Cake

Mmmmm…..what a great fall cake. I saw this cake in the recent Bon Appetit issue and knew it would be perfect for our neighbors. I have been wanting to bake for them for a while now as they are older and even with being limited to their outside activities, always offer to check on our [...]

Turkey Meatloaf Cupcakes

A great way to have fun with your food. I have seen this in many places online and have been dying to make them. I used my basic turkey meatloaf and classic mashed potato recipe to create these. Make meat loaves as directed yet use cupcake liners. Make mashed potatoes and pipe on “cupcakes”. You [...]

Cinnamon roll cupcakes

ENJOY!

Ingredients:
2 1/4 tsp. or 1 packet (1/4 oz./7 g) dry [...]

Hershey’s perfectly chocolaty cupcakes

Finally making these and they are A-MAZING. These are super chocolaty, soft, moist,….perfect! Found on the back of the Hershey’s dark cocoa, these are wonderful! I used my new favorite buttercream…yumm…I wanted to originally make this into a cake, but needed to take them somewhere and cupcakes are easier to transport. Definitely gonna try this [...]

S’mores cupcakes

We were having another bbq and I wanted something that screamed summer since fall is coming very quickly. When I think of summer I think of roasting marshmallows, hot dogs on the grill,  camping, sitting around a camp fire and SMORES! So I decided I wanted to make some kind of smore that I could [...]

Carrot Cake cupcakes

Both H and I love carrot cake so when I saw this recipe on Smitten Kitchen I knew I had to make them. The recipe includes the cake directions as well as cupcakes. I included cream cheese frosting recipe at the end but I omitted the maple syrup in the frosting and added vanilla instead.
ENJOY!

Candy Bar Brownie Cakes with Marshmallow Butter Cream

I have found my new favorite frosting. OMG the marshmallow butter cream is smooth, buttery, and not too sweet. It came together easily and was ADDICTING. I couldn’t stop tasting it! Definitely give these a try. I used mini milky ways in mine, but mini Snickers, Twix, and Hershey bars would be good too (the small [...]
