Pumpkin Caramel Cheesecake Turtle Bread

We recently had some overnight guests, and I wanted to make something special to have for breakfast in the morning and to snack on.  I’ve been wanting to make pumpkin bread this fall, and when I saw this version, I knew it would be spectacular.  There were so many wonderful flavors going on that made [...]

Cinnamon Ice Cream

What better to go with Cinnamon Fudge than Cinnamon Ice Cream?  I’ve been wanting to make this ice cream for a long time, and finding the cinnamon chips and making the fudge gave me the push to make it.  I love mix ins with my ice cream, and thought the cinnamon fudge would be the [...]

Sugar-Topped Molasses Spice Cookies (TWD)

David’s favorite kind of cookie is a ginger cookie.  I try to make them for him pretty often, and he was happy that TWD gave me a reason to make them again.  This is the third time ginger cookies have appeared on my blog, and I wanted to find out his opinion of Dorie’s version [...]

Cinnamon Fudge

I’ve heard about Hershey’s Cinnamon Chips for a while now, but had never seen them in grocery stores.  I was beginning to think it was just made up!  Finally, I saw some recently at Publix and picked up a bag.  I couldn’t wait to get home and make something with them.  I wanted to find [...]

Peanut Butter Pie

So many people love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate, so I knew this would go over quite well.  I’ve had my eye on it ever since I got Baked and was excited to make it.  It has three major steps to it- the crust, the filling, and the fudge topping, but they were [...]

Millionaire’s Shortbread Bars

Bar cookies are so much fun to make.  They can be as simple as blondies and brownies, or they can be made of several layers that give them a more complex flavor.  When I was flipping through my cookbooks, these caught my eye, especially when they were described as being very similar to Twix bars.  [...]

All-in-One Holiday Bundt Cake (TWD)

Just like last year’s Thanksgiving Twofer Pie, Dorie has once again proved that you can have the best of both worlds.  Can’t choose between pecan pie and pumpkin pie for dessert?  Make a pie that has both!  This year, we baked a dessert that combines fall’s favorite spice cakes: pumpkin, apple, and cranberry.  You have [...]

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

My parents recently visited, and I thought these muffins would be the perfect snack for us to enjoy in the morning.  My mom and I made these the night before so they would be fresh.  We haven’t baked together in a long time, so I had so much fun making these!  I haven’t had a [...]

Snickers Pie

We found ourselves with some leftover candy from Halloween, and I wanted to find some way to use it in a dessert.  Most of the candy will end up going to my classroom (I reward/bribe with candy ), but I’ve heard of people making Snickers Pie before and I wanted to try it out for [...]

Nutella Fudge

I am a huge fan of fudge.  Ever since I was little, I looked forward to eating fudge once the weather got cooler.  I always made the standard chocolate fudge, but over the past couple of years, I have enjoyed making new variations.  I’ve been on a Nutella kick lately and I thought it would [...]
