I realize that this is my second cinnamon-centered cake in one week. Why? Because at Thanksgiving, my family tried someone else’s cake. Blasphemous! I politely asked for the recipe and was denied. Therefore, I tapped into my competitive nature and engineered my own recipe. In the end, who’s cake was better? Mine or the baker who shall not be named? Mine!
Who says a vanilla and BDSM can’t be combined? A vanilla cupcake with real vanilla beans in the cake and frosting is perfect with a little Fifty Shades of Grey.
This is a very simple recipe, but tastes amazing. This cake never lasts more than a few hours in my house. It’s perfect with a cup of coffee any time of the day. While I can’t eat it because I’m gluten free, its aroma is heavenly.
What to do with leftover melted chocolate? Add some coconut. Voilà! Chocolate Coconut Haystack.
It’s not a traditional dessert for Thanksgiving, but it is easy to pick-up, fits the color scheme, and is delicious. Thus, perfect for a party!
Where did I find inspiration for a blueberry dessert in November? First, I couldn’t get the word BLUE out of my mind today. Second, I know it seems to be a little out of season for blueberries, but I know someone whose favorite pie at Thanksgiving is blueberry pie. Thus, I went with a recipe that is jam-packed with tons of blueberries.
What to do with that extra Halloween candy? Take a bunch of chopped up candy bars and throw them into your favorite simple cake bar recipe.
It’s cold and rainy today – perfect weather for baking.
Oops! I bought too many bananas last weekend. A win for my kids! They love the crumb topping.
