Apple Spice Cake with Brown Sugar Frosting
I had too many fun fall bakes I wanted to make this month so I decided to post a little more often this month. My grandfather really likes apple cakes so I thought it would be fun to try this Apple Spice Cake. I’ll start off by saying I did half the recipe and felt […]

Cinnamon Sugar Donut Cake
What’s better than a donut? Maybe a donut cake?? Thought this might be a fun way to end my summer cake series. Bundt cakes are pretty easy; though I was a little worried about this one since I normally spray my bundt pans rather than butter/flour them. I can’t tell you the last time I […]

Chocolate Cheesecake
I know I’m in the middle of a cake series and this might be a little too outside the box, but the word cake is in the title so I think it counts. Plus it’s a nice little break from typical cake. Cheesecake is great, but it’s often finicky and the water bath can be […]

Baked Alaska
I’ve been wanting to try Baked Alaska for ages, plus who doesn’t want to use a cooking torch?? I opted to use a Test Kitchen recipe since I feel like a lot of people said this was fairly difficult and they’re good at testing different kinds of ingredients/methods to find the perfect recipe. The cake […]

Cheerwine Chocolate Cake
I grew up eating Coca-Cola Cake so when I ran across this recipe for Cheerwine Chocolate Cake I thought it would be fun to try it and see what difference there was (if any) in taste. This is a super simple cake and perfect if you need to take a cake somewhere since you make […]

That Chocolate Cake

I wasn’t able to find Scharffen Berger cocoa or unsweetened chocolate in our grocery stores so I had to purchase it online. The cake […]

Lemon Cake
Every once in a while I really get in the mood to have a nice slice of lemon cake. I’ve made lemon pound cake or bundt cakes before but never a layer cake. I think I ran across this recipe on Instagram so I added to my “to bake” list. The cake is fairly easy […]

Rocky Road Cake
Rocky Road ice cream is one of my favorites so when I saw this on Instagram I immediately added it to my baking list. I knew this would be a stretch because it involved a few things I’ve either never tried, or haven’t done very often. The actual baking of this cake was easy. Be […]

Carrot Layer Cake
I love carrot cake and I kept seeing people post their carrot cake recipes online and decided it was time to try one myself. The cake portion of the recipe wasn’t too difficult, though my ranking for time spent here is mainly because it took a while to grate about 3 cups of carrots. I […]

Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake
We recently celebrated several family birthdays and I wanted to try and make a Nothing Bundt Cake copycat. Almost all of the recipes used a box mix and I really wanted to try and do one from scratch so I ran found this recipe and decided to give it a try. This is a pretty […]
