It’s been a while since I’ve made a layered cake so it was about time I posted a new recipe with one. Especially when we had something to celebrate here with my husband’s birthday!
He loves caramel and toffee so this is my new creation that includes them both layered between moist chocolate cake…with a bit of caramelized almond dust thrown into the buttercream.
Check it out, it may just be your new favorite!
Tired of boring vanilla or chocolate frosting? Try something new with this Mint Chocolate Chip Swiss Meringue Buttercream! It’s one of our favorite ice cream flavors in frosting form!!
Who needs cake and ice cream when you can have it all in one?!
Nothing else quite reminds you of sunshine when it hits your tongue like fresh lemonade.
Fresh lemonade can make you feel the sun’s rays on your face even on a cloudy day!
This homemade version is so good you may need to make a double batch! It goes great in hot tea as well, so give your immune system a boost with vitamin C and raw honey that will make you say “Aaah”!
Stuck inside? No need to leave the house to run to the store for granola…make this delicious vanilla almond granola at home with your pantry items!
It’s super easy and you can substitute with any nuts or dried fruits you have in your cupboard. Not to mention how delicious it is-way better than any store-bought!
I don’t know about you but mint chocolate chip ice cream takes me back to my childhood going to the ice cream parlor in the summertime. It’s cooling comfort food that everyone loves! Now you can enjoy it in a whole new way with these mint chocolate chip cupcakes!
With the way the world is right now and everyone doing their part by staying home to keep the spread of Covid-19 down, it’s important to take the time and de-stress. Baking has been shown to be a great stress relief so I’ve been baking and cooking up a storm here and finding new ways to use leftovers and store the extra food that I make. Usually, when I make desserts I give a lot of them away to friends and coworkers but right now that is not an option. These cupcakes freeze well for later and are an easy dessert for that weeknight that you don’t feel like cooking. See how at the end of the recipe.

Show your special someone how much you love them this Valentine’s Day with these raspberry lemonade cupcakes!
A little bit of freeze-dried raspberry powder packs a punch when flavoring buttercream without adding extra liquid. You can find freeze-dried fruit powders on Amazon or in my case I ordered some from Blueprint.com and they come in all different flavors!
