Fudge Brownies (Sugar and Gluten Free)

Just because I am on a sugar and gluten free diet, doesn’t mean I can’t have brownies!! A girl’s gotta live you know. So let me give you the heads up on these brownies. It’s hard to believe, it may gross you out a bit, but they contain black beans! There I said it, nothing […]
Pumpkin Blondies

I wanted to try this recipe since last year as I included it in my pumpkin round-up. I made it last week for our play group and so glad I did because I could have eaten the whole pan myself, they were moist, chewy and pumpkin-y. Just about everything you could look for in a […]
German Chocolate Upside Down Cake

For DT’s birthday last week I wanted to shake things up a bit, make something familiar, but yet slightly different. I am crazy like that, ha ha. Any-who, I came across this recipe somewhere on the internet, and with DT’s 2nd favorite cake being German chocolate, I figured it would be perfect. In case you’re […]
Lemon Buttermilk Pudding Cake

Lemon desserts are my favorite, so when I ran across this recipe on Brenda’s blog I knew I had to try it. This dessert is light and airy on top, and pudding smooth on bottom with the delicious tang of lemons and buttermilk. Can I get a mmmmm??? Also lately I love any recipe that […]
Chocolate Butter Cake with Frosting

Today is the last Food Network Chef’s Challenge. I can’t believe we’ve cooked through all of the chef’s on food network, I’ve found some really great recipes and really great blogging friends through this process. Thanks Sarah from I Blame My Mother for hosting this fun challenge, I will miss it. During the whole challenge […]
Pound Cake with Lemon Curd

*Be sure to stop by The Granola giveaway JK Gourmet.* My Aunt recently made my great grandmother’s pound cake and posted about it on facebook. I don’t recall ever eating her pound cake (though I am sure I did) as I was 5 or 6 when she passed away. But I just knew in her […]
Cherry Mini Cakes

I love making and creating sweet little treats to share with loved ones on Valentines day. DT requested that I make a strawberry cake, or red velvet cupcakes or even a flour-less chocolate cake and ice cream (all of which I made last year, obsess much??) But see I’ve done all of those and while […]
Carrot Pineapple Cake


This giveaway is closed. Winner announced here. Just a few short weeks ago I had never heard of Agave Nectar before, I just ate plain regular white sugar. But after DT and I went on our sugar and gluten free diet, I dove right into natural sweeteners like Agave nectar. Agave (if you not familiar) […]
Food Network Challenge – Cake Week

This week on the Food Network Chef’s Challenge (FNCC) hosted by I Blame my Mother is Duff Goldman of Charm City Cakes. And because he’s a famous cake decorator this week our challenge is to decorate a cake or share a cake we have previously decorated. I have made quite a few cakes in my […]
Molten Chocolate Baby Cakes

This weeks Food Network Chef’s Challenge hosted by I Blame My Mother is Danny Boome. I wasn’t very familiar with his show rescue chef, but he had some awesome recipes listed. I choose the Molten Chocolate Baby Cakes, because they are something I’ve always wanted to try and I’ve had a hankering for chocolate lately. […]
