Mint Chocolate Cake

I realize mint isn’t necessarily the first thing you think of when St. Patrick’s Day comes to mind, but mint is green and I had this on my list of things to bake so we’re going with it. This cake is pretty easy to make, especially since you’re only making one layer. I was a…

Chocolate Tres Leches Cake

I’m a big fan of tres leches cake, especially since it’s so easy. I’ve made a normal tres leches cake before, but happened to see this chocolate tres leches cake and knew that I had to try it. I mean honestly, how could it be bad?! It’s a super easy cake to make. You’re using…

Black Velvet Cake

It’s Halloween so why not making something fun like this Black Velvet Cake? I think I mention this every time, but I love when people include the ingredients and amounts in the instructions section! I’ve noticed the last two recipes I’ve made included a toggle button called “Cook Mode” when you’re looking at the recipe…

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…

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…

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…
