Molten lava cakes are just one of those things that are hard to pass up. I mean who doesn't like a nice warm cake that’s filled with delicious melty goo? I know it’s not something I can say no to! Especially when it involves pumpkin and butterscotch! What’s better, is that these molten lava cakes are made in the instant pot for a quick and easy Fall friendly dessert.

These Pumpkin Butterscotch Instant Pot Molten Lava Cakes are not only easy to make, but they’re pretty tasty too! There’s plenty of pumpkin flavor in there to balance out the richness of the butterscotch…

Fresh Strawberry Bundt Cake

This Fresh Strawberry Bundt Cake takes the cake. Seriously! This cake is DELICIOUS if I do say so myself. It is jam packed FULL of yummy strawberry flavor and nothing about it is artificial or out of a box, which makes it EVEN BETTER.

The secret is in the sauce. To start this cake off right, you put a whole pint of strawberries to cook down into an amazing sauce. On top of that, you throw some freeze dried strawberries into the batter and the end result is a perfectly guilt free and AMAZING strawberry cake…

Funfetti Sugar Cookie Cake

April 2, 2021 Amanda Plott

My daughter’s birthday is literally just around the corner. I can’t believe I’m about to have an 11 year old. Even so, I’m doing my very best to take this birthday extra special since, well, times are still rather strange in the world. One of the things I’m doing to make her day even more magical is making cake! Okay, so… not cake-cake. She had pretty specific instructions on wanting a cookie cake again this year. Which I’m totally down for.

The one I’m making for her actual birthday will be that Giant Cookie Cake from a couple years back. But, to get the party started early this long weekend, I decided to make this Funfetti Sugar Cookie Cake! It’s part cookie. Part cake. And a whole lot of sprinkles!…

Carrot Cake Bread

I’m not going to lie, I’m excited and yet a little apprehensive about Spring this year. Last year about this time is when the whole world went to shit. Here’s to hoping that this year will be at least a bit better, even if it still is a little different from years past. Until we know for sure? I’m going to start filling my belly with all things Spring! And what goes better with Spring than carrot cake?

This Carrot Cake Bread is definitely an excuse to eat carrot cake for breakfast. It’s loaded up with most of my carrot cake favorites; including pineapple, raisins, nuts, and of course CREAM CHEESE FROSTING…

Honey Tea Loaf Cake

When it snows. I bake. Okay, okay. In all honesty, I planned on making this Honey Tea Loaf Cake long before there was confirmation of snow in the forecast. But, it was a really nice treat to get to enjoy on a frosting winter' morning. And goodness gracious is it frosty today! Seriously. We have the coldest ‘high’ temperature on record today in Austin.

This Honey Tea Loaf Cake is… amazing. The pictures just don’t do it justice. The texture is very much so akin to a pound cake in that it’s dense, moist, and also somehow light. This loaf cake is par-baked before being finished off baking with a honey drizzle soaking into the loaf. The end result is this delicious cake with a natural line of honey ‘filling’…

Circus Animal Cookie Blondies

February 7, 2021 Amanda Plott

If you love blondies and you love circus animal cookies then you are going to go nuts over these Circus Animal Cookie Blondies! Blondies are basically a vanilla (non-chocolate) version of brownies. So they’re a bit more dense and moist than cake.

These blondies are super easy to make and are whipped up all in one bowl. Plus, look at how colorful they are! With circus animal cookies baked right in, they have that frosted cookie crunch among the sprinkles and blondie. It’s basically heaven on a plate for me since circus animal cookies are one of my favorite guilty pleasures…
