Early Spring is such a back and forth time here in the Midwest. Some days it’s beautiful, sunny, 60 degrees. Other days (or weeks), it’s 35 degrees and raining/snowing/sleeting. Which is particularly brutal after the aforementioned beautiful 60 degree days. Anyways, lemon feels like a very bright, sunshine-y, spring flavor. So even if this week…
Happy Easter! Coconut Carrot Cupcakes
I write this Carrot Cake Cupcakes post as I wear a sweatshirt that my niece has confirmed has not one but two carrots on it. And two days after I purchased the first item of new clothing that I’ve purchased in… probably a year? I found this carrot sweater vest and decided it was worth…
Cherry Chocolate Layer Cake (One Layer After Another)
When I went to the Betty Crocker Cake Picnic last year, they gave away Cherry Chip Betty Crocker cake mix, and a recipe for a “Cake Doctor” style cake. I didn’t make it right away, because there was no immediate occasion for cake, and I had other things to bake. But I kept it in…
Apricot Jam Cake
My mom recently got me a subscription to the most delightful monthly newspaper: Baking Nation. A newspaper delivered every month filled with baking related history, recipes, puzzles, horoscopes, and tips and tricks. What more could you ask of a newspaper?? Nothing, I say. There’s also a cozy mystery story with monthly installments, so it’s really…
Hot Chocolate Mini Bundt Cake
I waxed on about my new baby Bundt pan a few weeks ago. It really is a delightful addition to my kitchen. It would be ridiculous to make an entire hot chocolate Bundt cake in the middle of the week, with no holiday or occasion. But a little mini Bundt on a random Tuesday? It’s…
Sourdough Bundt Cake with Brown Butter Glaze (in a Baby Bundt pan)
Sometimes, impulse purchases lead to regret. Other times, you’re mid-purchase thinking, “This was an excellent decision.” The other day, my parents and I stopped into the Nordic Ware Factory Store and I impulse-purchased a “baby Bundt” pan. It immediately fell into the latter category of impulse purchase. I used the pan two days later to…
Coffee Chocolate Chip Cake with Pistachio Filling and Brown Butter Frosting
This past Saturday, my siblings and I attended the “Cake Picnic” here in Minneapolis in honor of Betty Crocker’s 104th birthday. (Betty Crocker the brand, not a real person.) A video of that experience can be seen here, but I also figured it deserved a post! And I wanted to share the recipe for my…
PB&J Layer Cake (Brown Butter Cake, Cherry Compote, Cinnamon Crumb, and Peanut Butter Frosting)
My brother is turning THIRTY this Monday, so we’ve been celebrating all weekend. That means making a cake for us to enjoy the whole weekend. My brother’s golden birthday cake last year was a pretty spectacular cake, so the bar was set high this year. His only request was “PB&J,” but I was able to…
