I was going to wait until September 1st to share this recipe, but it is just too good not to share! Plus I am sure we all have overly ripe bananas hanging out! This cake is so light and fluffy with banana chunks. The brown sugar topping keeps it from drying out. I played around […]
Cherry Cobbler
My whole life I have loved anything with cherries. I can never understand how someone could prefer apples or peaches. This cherry cobbler is so easy to put together, but has so much flavor! I can make this entire dessert in 30 minutes. My kids always think I am a magician. Second best part? Your […]
Chocolate Hazelnut Meringue Cake
This is such a fun way to make chocolate cake. Deep chocolate fudge cake topped with the crackled meringue and fresh whipped cream. It is a cross between a brownie and macaron.

Bee Sting Cake
We spent our mini moon after the wedding in a tiny German inspired town. One of the big things I noticed was all the baked goods were light and airy with some sort of almond topping. I really wanted to try making a classic Bee Sting Cake. A cross between a bread and cake with […]

Since I am currently obsessed with fresh lemon and herbs we have been going to the store every […]
