The Best (Texas) Chocolate Sheet Cake
A few posts ago, I told you about a recipe for Cheesy Hash Brown Potatoes, made by Jane Ann for her department lunch. Well, Jane, who is also in that same department, madethis fabulous Texas sheet cake for the dessert. It was super-good…nice and moist, very chocolatey, and topped with a smooth layer of chocolate…

Peppermint Pound Cake
I’ve been on a peppermint roll lately! Recipes with peppermint have been sounding really good to me this holiday season. I started out making Chocolate Peppermint Cupcakes, then Easy Peppermint Bark, and now Peppermint Pound Cake!

Pumpkin Bundt Cake
There’s something about autumn that makes me want to bake and eat pumpkin-flavored things. Apparently I’m not the only one who feels that way—when I went to buy some canned pumpkin, I had to go to three grocery stores before I finally found some! Looks like everyone is stocking up on it!

I had two bananas that were getting really ripe the other day. Just for a change, I wanted to make something a little different than the typical banana bread. After a little searching, I found a recipe from Taste of Home that only used two bananas, so it was the perfect time to try it…

Lemon Almond Bread
I like to make lemon-flavored treats in the summer—lemons just seem to give everything a light, fresh taste! This Lemon Almond Bread is like a pound cake…rich and dense, with almonds in the lemony batter, and more sprinkled on top of the lemon glaze. So, if you like lemons and almonds, you’re in for a…

Pound Cake Muffins with Strawberries
This is a muffin you can really sink your teeth into! 🙂 It’s actually a yummy, rich mini–pound cake disguised as a muffin and topped with cream cheese frosting and a juicy red strawberry.  Because the batter is rich and dense, the baking time is longer than it is for a typical muffin, but when…
