Great American Cookie Double Doozies

I don’t know about you, but walking past the Great American Cookie kiosk at the mall without stopping is the hardest thing ever! I succeed sometimes but there are plenty of times I have to stop and get one of those double doozie cookies.  If you aren’t familiar with them, a double doozie is two […]

Caramel Apple Layer Cake

Recently my neighbor had someone give her a ton of apples from a local orchard and she generously shared them with me.  I was going back through recipes that I have saved over the years and came across this cake that I always say I’m going to try and just never have.  I am so […]

Banana Bread Whoopie Pies

How do you like your bananas? Do you like them super ripe, slightly spotted, or under ripe? I like mine under ripe where they are bright yellow, just past the green phase and I won’t eat them once they get a spot on them. So I had 3 bananas on my counter fully spotted and […]

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

It’s October and you know what that means…It’s Pumpkin time!! I couldn’t resist starting out October with a delicious pumpkin treat.  There’s just something so addictive about the pumpkin/chocolate combination.  I’ve probably mentioned this before, but Adam doesn’t like pumpkin (I know, I don’t understand it either!) so I wasn’t sure he would like these. […]

Chocolate Cake Doughnuts

So I’ve been putting off getting a donut pan as I thought it would take up too much room in my townhouse and limited cabinet space.  But, my longing for donuts outweighed that skepticism about where I would put it and so I asked for one for my birthday.  I’m so glad I did! The […]

DC Cupcake’s Vanilla Cupcakes w/Vanilla Buttercream

I was watching Live with Kelly (it’s so hard for me not to say Regis & Kelly!) on the DVR last week and I got SUPER excited when I saw Sophie and Katherine from the TLC show, DC Cupcakes.  That is one my favorite shows and I just love the dynamic between the two sisters.  I’ve […]

Red Velvet Cake Roll

Happy Valentine’s Day! I’m not big into Valentine’s, I’m more in the camp of let’s celebrate love all year with special surprises.  That being said, I don’t dislike valentine’s, we just don’t usually go all out.  We usually will make a nice dinner and stay in, though last year we got takeout and it was […]

Whole Grain Strawberry Pop-Tart Scones

I love scones and I thought it would be a perfect thing to wake up to on Labor Day, especially since I made them the day before and didn’t have to get up early to make them!! I’m not an early riser on a regular day, let alone a holiday! 🙂 These were really delicious! […]

Oatmeal Cream Pies

OH MY WORD!! This is one of those “make right now” recipes! These were even better than their little debbie counterparts. I wanted to make a dessert for a youth retreat we were having and immediately my mind went to these homemade oatmeal cream pies because what kid doesn’t love little debbies? They turned out […]
