Whenever I have to bake cupcakes for an occasion, I almost always make these Coconut Cupcakes. They are always loved and are extremely popular.

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…
Eggnog Cake with Cheesecake Filling
I have been told I am quite a food snob and I can’t really disagree. I like homemade food and not generally something that comes from a box or a can. I love using fresh ingredients that we have either grown ourselves or found someone local to buy from. But we all have our…
Lamingtons
This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #ThePitchesatWMT http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV I cannot even begin to tell you how excited I was about the release of Pitch Perfect 2. I absolutely loved the first movie, and…
Buttery Coffee Cake
Sunday mornings are reserved for big family breakfasts. Normally, my husband is in charge of making the spread, but since he has been working so hard I have been subbing in and letting him sleep. Aren’t I sweet?! Yah, no I am not. I must admit that my taking over breakfast duty is purely selfish,…
Easy Vanilla Cupcakes

Mini Cranberry Crumbles #QuakerUp #MyOatsCreation #CollectiveBias
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and Quaker. All opinions are mine alone. There is something about the holidays that gives me an extra dose of patience.

Gluten Free Carrot Cake
I think that carrot cake is a spring staple. This recipe is great because despite it being gluten free and dairy free (well if you don’t add the frosting) it is still delicious and tastes just like a normal cake. I made this cake twice, once using Cup4Cup gluten free flour and once using Trader…
