Nanny’s Victoria Sponge (A Review of Perfect One-Dish Dinners)
Posted by Tracy | Filed under desserts & sweets
Perfect One-Dish Dinners is Pam Anderson’s latest cookbook, and it is quickly becoming one of my go-to cookbooks for entertaining. I first met Pam at the Big Summer Potluck, where I was absolutely thrilled to hear her sessions on writing recipes – after all, who better to glean tips and advice from than a former [...]

Sour Cream Coffee Cake with Maple Glaze
Posted by Tracy | Filed under breakfast & brunch, desserts & sweets
While packing for the Big Summer Potluck this past weekend, I spent most of my time thinking about what kind of snack or dessert to bring. Even though we weren’t required to bring a dish to share, I decided that I just couldn’t attend an event with “potluck” in the title and not bring something [...]

Today is mine and hubby’s anniversary! So naturally, last night I had to make a cake for dessert today. I decided to go with Dorie’s Perfect Party Cake since I love the texture of the cake and since it always comes together so easily. I know, I’ve already posted about it - but that was a marbled [...]

When you sign up to play, you can customize your penguin character and adopt puffles as pets [...]

Cranberry Coffee Cake
Posted by Tracy | Filed under breakfast & brunch, desserts & sweets
There’s been far too much cooking going on here recently and not nearly enough baking, so I thought I’d remedy that today. The truth is that I haven’t been able to bake as much as I’d like to lately because I’ve been busy preparing for Thanksgiving. This is going to be my first year hosting [...]
Pumpkin Bundt Cake with Pumpkin Buttercream Frosting
Posted by Tracy | Filed under desserts & sweets
To lessen the blow of my Daring Baker fail this month, I wanted to post again for the #GreatHallowTweet bloghop hosted by Renee! I made this cake for my family when they were visiting a couple weekends ago (and made them take it home with them so that I didn’t eat the whole thing). It’s [...]
