Upside Down Cake
This is one of those recipes that feels like a common one and yet this is the first time I’ve ever made an upside cake. Traditionally, it’s made with pineapple rings, but I liked that this recipe used different fruits. Starting off, I melted the butter and brown sugar together in the cast iron skillet,…

The Best Chocolate Sheet Cake
I love cake and while a layer cake is my personal favorite a nice sheet cake is a close second. Start by melting together chocolate, butter, and oil in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth. You always want to be careful when melting chocolate to ensure it doesn’t get too hot and seize.…

S’mores Pie
I love s’mores but I’ll be honest that I was a little skeptic about this recipe. part of the appeal is the crunch of the graham cracker and the oozing chocolate and I wasn’t sure how this pie would hold up. It’s a pretty easy pie to make though and you’ll start by making a…

Raspberry Linzer Cookies
This wasn’t what I had originally planned on making for R, but for time reasons I had to scrap the other and this is what I did instead. I don’t actually think I’ve made Linzer cookies before, but they look striking so it’s been on my “to bake” list for a while. This recipe is…

Quick Pots de Crème
I actually had something else listed for Q, but somehow I ran across this recipe and the ease and simplistic beauty of it made me decide to change things up. This recipe is exactly as it says “quick” and honestly it’s easy as well. First you’ll put the chocolate chips, salt, sugar, and espresso powder…

While bundt cakes can be a little intimidating because there’s a risk the cake might stick to the sides, I love making bundt cakes. They’re generally pretty easy but it’s still cake and therefore delicious. While this recipe has a few extra steps it’s still easy and you start by mixing the pumpkin, eggs, oil,…

Opera Cake
I’ve been a little nervous about this recipe because it’s quite time consuming and there are lots of areas you could mess something up. However, it’s gorgeous and delicious so worth the time and effort. While you should always read through a recipe before starting this is one that you probably want to read through…

Nutella Cake
I like Nutella, but hadn’t tried it in dessert before so this felt like a good place to start. Plus it’s a pretty impressive looking cake so good if you need a fancy dessert for a crowd. The cake is pretty standard, you just mix your dry ingredients together, cream the butter and sugar, and…

Millionaire Bars
I was intrigued when I saw America’s Test Kitchen make this recipe on their YouTube channel so I thought it would be fun to try and it was supposed to be similar to a Twix so that sounded good. This recipe is easy, but takes a little time just because there are layers. First you…

Lemon Drizzle Cake
I love the lemon loaf at Starbucks and am always looking for recipes that get close to theirs. My aunt gave me the Downton Abbey Afternoon Tea cookbook so I thought it would be fun to try their recipe. This is a simple recipe, you just mix together all of the dry ingredients and then…
