Of all the cakes out there, tres leches cake is probably my favorite. If a Mexican restaurant sells it, I'll buy it. The cake is just so incredible. It's the moistest cake you'll ever eat, thanks to, well, all the milk that it's soaked in. It's a relatively easy cake to make, too. I've made… Continue reading Pumpkin Tres Leches Cake

Apple Cider Donut Bread
I've had this blog for 10 years. 10 years! 10 years of dinner, appetizer, soup and dessert recipes. 10 years of helping people with copycat recipes and family favorites. There are a few recipes you will not find in my archives, though. I've never baked a three-layer cake (it seems way out of my league).… Continue reading Apple Cider Donut Bread
Apple Crisp Bars
Apple pie or pumpkin pie? That's the major question being asked this time of year. Sure, we can't forget pecan pie, but apple pie and pumpkin pie are the most requested around the holidays. This question is nearly impossible for me to answer. Apple pie is decadent, homey, and makes me feel all warm and… Continue reading Apple Crisp Bars
BBQ Biscuit Cups
It's getting harder and harder to come up with new lunch ideas for my husband and I. I'm running out of salad ideas. There's also only so much you can do with ground turkey and chicken (the meats we usually stockpile). I've had to resort to cobbling things together to see if they work. A… Continue reading BBQ Biscuit Cups
Cheddar Bay Biscuit Bread
Our little house on the prairie is starting to perk up now that it's fall. The windows are open to let the cool breeze in, the cats are snuggling up in bed when the sun goes down, and my kitchen is full of the tantalizing smells of autumn. I get into my baking zone when… Continue reading Cheddar Bay Biscuit Bread
Pumpkin Cranberry Mini Loaves
Who doesn't love pumpkin bread? I know I love it. I usually make at least one pumpkin loaf a year. Even the boxed pumpkin bread mixes are good. This recipe is a keeper. If you want to bring a fall or holiday food gift to a party, want to impress your friends, or you just… Continue reading Pumpkin Cranberry Mini Loaves
Mini Apple Pies with Cinnamon Roll Crust
Are you a pumpkin, apple or "other" fall pie type? I'm an apple pie kind of gal. I love pumpkin pie, too, but if given the choice between the two, I'll typically pick a slice of apple pie. I don't make apple pie very frequently, though, which is unfortunate. Sometimes baking a pie can be… Continue reading Mini Apple Pies with Cinnamon Roll Crust
Pumpkin Pull Apart Bread
It's pumpkin season and I'm neck-deep in pumpkin-spiced everything. I jumped on the pumpkin train years ago, and never looked back. I love the stuff. I can't get enough of it. Pumpkin, apple, pies, sweet potatoes, cranberries---I love pretty much every fall food out there. Pumpkin clearly reigns supreme, though. I've had far too many… Continue reading Pumpkin Pull Apart Bread
Pumpkin Snickerdoodles
Everybody has a favorite cookie; I have a favorite cookie list. My favorite is frosted sugar cookies at Christmas. Second of my list: Tollhouse chocolate chip. Way down at the bottom is a snickerdoodle. My mom LOVES snickerdoodle, but they aren't even on my radar. I like them, don't get me wrong, but they're not… Continue reading Pumpkin Snickerdoodles
Cheddar Bay Biscuit Breakfast Casserole
I love a good breakfast casserole and this recipe is no exception. I think it might make it into my Top 5 list of favorite breakfast casseroles. There are two casseroles my family switches between on Christmas: biscuit and gravy casserole and another one that uses bread, a bunch of eggs, and sausage. We will… Continue reading Cheddar Bay Biscuit Breakfast Casserole
