Easy Apple Cake
We went to an apple orchard last weekend and that put me in the mood to make something with apples. I went through all of my saved recipes and found this apple cake and thought I’d give it a try. As the recipe name implies, this is super easy. You’re basically mixing all the dry…

Cappuccino Cheesecake Bars
Once again, do not let the meager paper plate fool you into thinking these bars are somehow lesser. These are delicious and pretty simple, though you’ll want to factor in some chill time. This isn’t a difficult recipe and you start by making the brownie layer. I will say that I’ve never cooked butter and…

Mirror Glaze Dark Chocolate Cheesecake
I thought this was the first time I had made a chocolate cheesecake, but apparently I made this one a little over a year ago. I’m not sure where I first saw this recipe, but it looked stunning so I’ve just been waiting for the right time to make this. This recipe isn’t difficult, just…

Low-carb Mini Cheesecakes
I’ve been playing around this year with some sugar-free recipes and ran across this low-carb mini cheesecake recipe. I liked this recipe because I’m a big fan of a walnut cheesecake crust plus it’s nice to have these cute little mini cheesecakes. This isn’t a difficult recipe and comes together fairly quickly which is nice…

Creamy and Decadent New York Cheesecake
I’m a sucker for a good cheesecake; especially if it’s topped with cherries! We’ve tried a few different recipes from Brian Lagerstrom before and ran across this one and thought it was worth testing. Cheesecakes are notoriously finicky as they generally require a water bath, often crack on top, and take forever to make. This…

Gluten Free Ice Cream Cake
Happy National Ice Cream Cake Day! I’m not necessarily a huge fan of ice cream cakes, but it’s a fun treat every once in a while. Plus, for my friend’s birthday she thought it would be fun to do a mash-up between an ice-cream cake and a hot fudge sundae so I did a little…

Yellow Cake (& chocolate frosting)
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that this is the best yellow cake I’ve ever had. While I usually feel like homemade is always better, there’s just something about a box cake mix that yields an amazing crumb (& taste!). This recipe gives a box cake a run for it’s…

Victoria Sponge Cake (Mini)
I actually wanted to make this a few weeks ago to celebrate the coronation, but I didn’t get a chance to make it then so I got a second change now! I’ve always wanted to make a Victoria Sponge Cake (also known as Victoria sandwich) and I found this recipe in the Downton Abbey Afternoon…

Hidden Heart Loaf Cake
I’ve always thought recipes that have something hidden on the inside were fun looking. My husband did a checkerboard cake once but I don’t think I’ve ever tried something like this myself. It’s not really difficult to make either of the cakes. I did have to look up “butter spread” though because while I suspected…

(Super Easy) Flourless Chocolate Cake
I made a flourless chocolate cake a few years ago and decided it was time to try another recipe. As the recipe name implies, it’s super easy; which is great! We generally use Ghirardelli’s chocolate and did use the 70% as recommended. I’m sure 60% would be fine too but I don’t know that I’d…
