This past weekend I was browsing my Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook in hopes of finding a sweet treat to make.  A recipe for a peanut butter cake jumped out at me so I decided to give it a try. However, I didn’t want to make a huge 9×13 cake for only two people so [...]

Banana Pineapple Cake from www.thisgalcooks.com wm

I love making simple sweet treats. Cake mixes make it easy to prepare simple desserts. Don’t get me wrong, I love baking from scratch. But cake mixes do taste good and you can do some fun things with them! Yesterday I decided to experiment with one of the boxes of cake mixes I recently bought. [...]

Last week I found an amazing cheesecake recipe by Dorothy over at Crazy for Crust. This delicious cheesecake was made with Baileys Irish Cream Coffee Creamer.

Recipe: Cherry Danish Coffee Cake

This Gal Cooks - Cherry Danish Coffee Cake #danish #breakfast2

Do you ever have those days where you want sweets for breakfast rather than a savory breakfast of bacon, eggs, toast and hasbrowns? I sure do. Normally when I want a sweeter breakfast, I make pancakes or cinnamon roll breakfast cake (you can find a couple of those recipes at the bottom of this post.) Yesterday morning [...]
