Cookie Butter Cookies

I saw these cookies on Instagram and thought they’d be fun to try out since I’ve never bought Cookie Butter before. While I like Biscoff cookies they’re not normally ones I keep on hand and I usually don’t eat them unless I’m on a flight. I like the nutty flavor though and they feel a […]

Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie

Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! What better way to celebrate than making a giant skillet cookie?!? I tried one at a restaurant years ago and it was drenched in butter so I was hopeful this recipe was a lot better. We bought the America’s Test Kitchen Cast Iron cookbook so I used that recipe, […]

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

Someone on Instagram posted this cake recently and since my husband loves chocolate cake (especially ones with ganache icing), I knew I had to add it to my “to bake” list. 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 […]
