I’m at a loss for words trying to describe this apple cider bread. It was INCREDIBLE. My husband and I finished it off in two days between the two of us and I’m honestly considering baking another loaf. The bread is delicious at any time of the day, but I’d recommend eating it for breakfast with a hot cup of coffee or warming it up and slathering with a little butter for dessert.
If you want to get in the fall spirit, I highly recommend making these delicious apple cider cupcakes. They’re incredibly moist, full of flavor and easy on the eyes, too! They’d be the perfect addition to your Thanksgiving spread.
Halloween is right around the corner, so why not get in the holiday spirit with this decadent pumpkin-chocolate trifle?! The dessert is made even better with Chocoley‘s rich dark chocolate–trust me!
Happy belated Thanksgiving! I spent the holiday at home with my family eating mass amounts of food and drinking copious amounts of wine. We typically celebrate Thanksgiving at a family friend’s home, but since they were out of town this year, we gobbled up the turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes at my house. I made this decadent pumpkin pie for dessert and it was a huge hit. Although time-consuming, the pie was absolutely worth all the effort!
Cinnamon and sugar anything = my weakness. Remember these churro cupcakes? I could eat 10. The combo is just too delicious!
Snickerdoodles are one of my favorite cookies, but for some reason, I’ve never posted them on my blog. These cookies have the perfect texture–chewy on the inside with a slight crunch on the outside, topped with gobs of cinnamon and sugar amazingness.
I’ve become a tough critic when it comes to banana bread, but this recipe had me dancing on the ceiling. The bread is by far one of the best I’ve ever tasted–I can’t stop thinking and talking about it. Although more time-consuming than most banana bread recipes, it is way worth the effort. I could and would have eaten the entire loaf myself, but I figured it best to share!
I never thought a cupcake could be so perfect until I stumbled across this recipe for churro cupakes. Yes, churro cupcakes. Say what?! These cupcakes taste exactly like the warm, chewy churros from Disneyland–but made even better with the addition of cinnamon cream cheese frosting. Please go make these asap!
If you’re a fan of snickerdoodles, I’m gonna go ahead and say that you’d love these cinnamon squares. They’re basically a snickerdoodle cookie in gooey cake form. What could be better than that?! I brought these to a 4th of July BBQ and not a single bar was left on the tray. I’ll most definitely be making these again soon.
Happy 2012! If you want to indulge before you start your New Year’s resolutions, I suggest you make this decadent bread pudding. Think of a cinnamon roll drenched in a warm, caramel-rum sauce. Have I tempted you?
Hope everyone has a relaxing, food and football-filled day (assuming you’re into that). We need a lot of crossed fingers for our Buckeyes!
As promised, here’s the recipe for the pumpkin and gingerbread trifles I served at Thanksgiving. Since November is almost over (I can hardly believe it), I wanted to squeeze in one last pumpkin recipe.
I’m in charge of bringing a dessert every Thanksgiving, but couldn’t decide on what to bring this year. My Mimi (aka grandma) came to the rescue and suggested I make these pumpkin trifle cups, as she said they’re always a hit. I tweaked her recipe a bit, making homemade whipped cream, adding cinnamon, etc., but kept the general focus of the dessert.
My Mimi was right–the dessert received rave reviews. I’ve already contemplated variations I could make on the trifle. I think a lemon curd, whipped cream and graham cracker trifle would be pretty delicious. :)
