White Cake

This cake has a rich buttery vanilla flavor but when compared with many other cakes, it is surprisingly not that bad for you. It is moist and great for building theme cakes and when paired with buttercream frosting it’s one of my family’s all-time favorite cake/cake pop combos.

This pound cake is moist and has a rich vanilla flavor. Serve it plain or topped with a powdered sugar glaze. It is also excellent with chocolate fondue or strawberry shortcake!

Banana Bars

These banana bars could be the best thing banana that I have ever eaten. They are not too sweet and have a delicate banana flavor. The cream cheese frosting adds a light creamy sweetness and definitely makes them a dessert. But we loved them without frosting, too.

Chocolate Mint Bars

One of my favorite candies is Andes Chocolate Mints. With this recipe, you can leave the mint frosting white but I like to color it green so that it looks like Andes mints. (And the touch of green gets you out of being pinched on St. Paddy’s Day!)

Baseball Birthday Cake

This giant baseball made the perfect individual birthday cake for my son’s 1st birthday party. My son dived into the whole cake so I made cupcakes for the guests, decorating them with baseballs and red sprinkles.

Chocolate Cake

This chocolate cake is my “go-to” recipe for chocolate cupcakes and birthday cakes. In fact, I’ve pretty much stopped trying other chocolate cake recipes because this one is so good and everyone loves it!

Pumpkin Bread

Nothing screams the arrival of autumn like the smell of pumpkin bread permeating the house. This year, I had a freezer full of homemade puréed baby foods (zucchini, sweet potato, summer squash and yams) that my son would no longer eat. Not wanting to waste the purées and wanting my son to eat his veggies, I decided to change tactics and turn the baby food into a sweet bread. Each time I’ve made this bread it has been moist and full of a rich, nutty, spicy autumn flavor.
