For those of you dieting in the New Year my apologies but these were too good not to share! I dusted off the breadmaker the other day to make these Cinnamon Rolls. Yes, I said dusted off. My breadmaker used to be the second most used small appliance in my kitchen after my slow cooker…

Cake Mix Cinnamon Bundt Cake – Back to School Breakfast
When we were kids if we wanted a sweet treat we had to bake it. If you wanted cookies, cake or pie it was up to you to make it. By the time I was 12 or 13 I had several Betty Crocker recipes committed to memory. We VERY rarely used cake or brownie mixes….
Banana Pudding Chessman Dessert
Well, the Labor Day weekend is upon us. For some it is a three-day weekend for others, just another day at work. I hope whatever you do this weekend you find some time to have fun with your families, friends or enjoy some alone time. I have seen this dessert on Facebook, Pinterest and even…
Blueberry Angel Food Cake
Dessert for dinner. Yes, this is really what we ate for dinner. Our house air conditioner stopped working sometime yesterday and when we arrived home it was almost 80 degrees in the house. We turned the air down, checked the filters, turned it off and on and nothing. Ugh. So, it was too late to…
Chocolaty Eclair Cake
I made an Chocolate Eclair Cake (click for link to original recipe) a year and a half ago and the kids still mention it from time to time about how I need to make another one. I finally decided that I really wanted something chocolaty so I decided to try this cake again but using chocolate…
Chocolate Strawberry Trifle
This is a great dessert that is so easy and light for Spring and Summer. The sunsets lately have been so beautiful. You can feel the weather changing so quickly. I know we are looking forward to fresh fruits and vegetables. The great thing about this is you can use whatever berries that are in…
Cookies and Cream Muddy Buddies
If you haven’t visited my blog in a while you should! I am coming up on my 4 year anniversary of writing this blog (though I really don’t count the first year and a half). I decided it was time to shake things up a bit with a new design, larger font and hopefully easier…
Biscoff Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches
*I received a free sample of Biscoff Lotus cookies from @Influenster and @Biscoff for review. I received no other compensation for this post and all opinions and ideas are my own and should be read as such. I had never tried Biscoff cookies before receiving the sample package from Influenster. I tasted them with my…
Sour Cream Coffee Cake with Crumb Topping
I don’t make desserts or sweets very often. When I do the kids think it is such a special treat. I am not a baker. Cooking and baking are two totally different things. With baking your measurements have to be precise otherwise the science of having a cake raise or hold together as it bakes…
Chocolate Pecan Pie Bars
This was my favorite dessert. I love the crunchiness of the pecans and the creaminess of the filling. Heavenly. Ingredients: Crust: 1 3/4 cups flour 1/4 cup packed brown sugar (light or dark) 3/4 teaspoon salt 3/4 cup cold butter, cut into pieces Up to 3 TBSP cold water Filling: 3 eggs 3/4 cup packed…
Real Pumpkin Pie
Most real (not canned even if is says real pumpkin) pie recipes I found recommended using Pie Pumpkins or Sugar Pumpkins for baking. I didn’t have either one of those. I had an 8 lb. Halloween pumpkin that my children did not carve this year. I follow the Tim Gunn motto of life, “Make it…
Paula Deen’s Apple Bundt Cake- My 400th Post
Wow, 400 posts. I have been watching the number of posts add up to this closely. On Chinese New Year, January 24, 2012, I started my game of trying to make a different meal each week night for one year. About 2 3/4 years later I am still working on this. I took two big…
