Tangy soft lime cupcakes topped with a sweet blackberry cream cheese frosting. These Blackberry Lime Cupcakes are what Spring baking is all about! I love getting the grocery store circulars this time of year and seeing all of the fabulous deals on berries. Not only do we eat them like candy, but I also love…

Blackberry Cinnamon Rolls
Last week I attended Knotts Berry Farm’s Boysenberry Festival media preview event. I absolutely love anything boysenberry flavored, so the event was not to be missed. While I was there, I was posting pictures of the scrumptious boysenberry themed desserts on my Instagram and Facebook feed. Little did I know, my husband and kids were…
Coconut Sweet Rolls
With coconut extract in the dough, and toasted shredded coconut in the filling and icing, they are a coconut lover’s dream! These Coconut Sweet Rolls are easy to make and perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert! The other day I was browsing the magazine section at Costco. I never buy magazines, especially at the prices…
Copycat Chili’s Chicken Crispers
It never ceases to amaze my husband how much money American’s spend on food and going out to eat. Growing up in Switzerland, they never went out to eat unless it was a very special occasion or a birthday. My family on the other hand would visit Chili’s almost once a week for dinner. Now,…
Mini Chocolate Caramel Coconut Bundt Cakes
Finally Girl Scout Season is here! For a very short period I can indulge in my Tagalong and Samoa cravings simply by visiting a local Walmart or Home Depot. Without fail, the girls are there. I am pretty sure they ping me as a “sale” as soon as they make eye contact. I’m a sucker…
Raspberry Lemon Tiramisu
Do you remember that creamy delicious Meyer Lemon Curd I posted the other day? Well this is what I made with it. I was hoping that using the curd in a recipe, it would stop me from eating it by the spoonful. This is usually the case because when I start a baking spree, I…
Meyer Lemon Curd
When I got home from Costco the other day, my husband just about went nuts over one item. Meyer Lemons. Unfortunately, he does not understand the beauty in these lemons and how they are absolutely incomparable to other lemons. Even after attempting to explain why I bought them he couldn’t justify the purchase. You see,…
Galaxy Donuts
Being a food blogger, I follow quite a few food trends. There are a lot that I just question and many that I get really excited for. Galaxy Donuts get me giddy. Not quite sure why, because I am not a spacey/Star Wars/science type of gal. There is just something about creating something edible that…
The Best Strawberry Coconut Cupcakes
Whenever I have to bake cupcakes for an occasion, I almost always make these Coconut Cupcakes. They are always loved and are extremely popular. While I usually always make a coconut cream cheese frosting, I decided to change things up by using a fresh strawberry frosting instead. Let me tell you they are just as…
Chocolate Heart Cake Box
What is Valentine’s day without a heart shaped box full of chocolates? Well this year, instead of buying one, make a completely edible heart box and fill it with fun cake balls. Have you ever come across a recipe or craft and wanted to make it for like years? It happens to me all…
Creme Filled Chocolate Cupcakes
When I say that I am a food blogger, people often ask if I go all out for holidays. They are always confused when I say no. See the thing is, I usually begin planning holiday posts at least a month in advance. When the actual holiday rolls around, I’m usually pretty over it. Then,…
French Onion Soup Dip
I think I say this every time I post, but where has the time gone? How is it already February and Superbowl?!? This is the month when I reserve all of my kid’s summer camps and begin planning our family vacation (if we have one). I can not believe that we are already here! The…
Chocolate Raspberry Bundt Cake
Are you beginning to see a theme with my latest recipes? I seem to be a bit obsessed with bundt cakes these days! I just love the simplicity of them, especially this Chocolate Raspberry Bundt Cake. You literally through all of the ingredient in the bowl, stir, and pour into the pan. No need to…
Vanilla Chai Bundt Cake
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #TeaProudly #CollectiveBias Last year El Nino was all the buzz here in Southern California. We all prepared for the wet winter with excitement and hope. Hope that we will finally come out of this horrible drought that our…
Carrot Zucchini Chocolate Muffins
This post has been sponsored by Hamilton Beach, however all opinions are 100% my own. You can feel a lot less guilty about eating one of these decadent chocolate muffins knowing that they are chock full of carrots and zucchini! Not only that, they are made with whole wheat flour and flax seed meal making…
Coconut Blueberry Lime Bundt Cake
Coconut Blueberry Lime Bundt Cake- whoa that title is quite the mouth full! But a deliciously tangy sweet mouthful. It seems that I get the urge to make a citrus bundt cake during the month of January every year. Last year I made a Lemon Poppyseed Bundt Cake, and the year before that I made…
Whole Wheat Pancakes with Strawberry Syrup
When January rolls around, I am like every other human on this planet. I crave healthy food, have a few pounds to lose, and am over the cold. I begin to crave the sunshine and fresh berries more than anything else. Thankfully, living in Southern California, the sunshine and strawberry season are right around the…
Easy Lamb and Mushroom Puff Pastry Triangles
Can you believe that the holidays are almost completely over?!? I can’t! It came and went so quickly. Now from what I am seeing on Facebook, most people are really looking forward to saying goodbye to 2016 and eager for the fresh start in 2017. We had a great year and are looking to continue…
Apple Smoothie Bowls
As we get further and further into the holiday season, I find myself getting more and more tired and sluggish. I’m not sure if it is the fact that I am running myself ragged with prep and kid’s activities or the fact that my diet is comparable to Elf (spaghetti with maple sugar)- sugar…
