This Praline Pecan Cheesecake really is worthy of being on most any Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner table, or another special occasion. The cheesecake would be plenty good enough by itself, but that praline topping really puts it over the top. I had had pralines plenty of times, and they make for a nice little Southern treat by themselves. But it turns out that that nutty, sweet flavor complements the taste and texture of pumpkin rather nicely.

This may not be the quickest and easiest cheesecake recipe ever, but the instructions are pretty straightforward. And the end result is most definitely worth the effort! I can’t even tell you how many “ooh’s” and “aah’s” I got when I brought this to the dinner table – and every single one of my guests were begging for the recipe.

They Look Festive and Taste Yummy!

Have you been searching for a great cookie recipe that’ll wow you and your guests? Look no further because this is it! These white chocolate cranberry cookies would work particularly well for a holiday treat, though with that flavor, you could enjoy them most any time of year.

Believe it or not, I was not as familiar with the white chocolate cranberry flavor combination as I was with the white chocolate raspberry one, prior to baking some of these. I have to say, it works out nicely – richly sweet, with just the right amount of tartness from the cranberries to put everything in balance. The addition of cornstarch to the dough ensures that the cookies will remain soft, even the next day. And the use of dark brown sugar instead of light brown gives the flavor of the cookies that much more depth and ensures that they have a more chewy, less crispy texture.

Great Apple Flavor, With a Lovely Filling and Frosting

If you like apple, nuts, and cream cheese filling, you’ll love this Apple Cream Cheese Bundt Cake! You could probably have the cake without it, but I think that that praline frosting really puts this cake over the top. And all of that cinnamon and apple really smelled lovely while I was baking this – the perfect flavors for the holiday season!

For having such a rich flavor, this cake certainly is rather moist and buttery – and rather well balanced. Sure, a little of this cake goes a long way, unless you have brought a really hungry sweet tooth with you, but nothing is out of place here. It has a really great flavor for autumn and the holidays. Do use a 14-cup bundt pan if you have one; it will fit into a 12-cup one but only barely so. And while you’re at it, why not make two and save the other one for later (just make sure you hide it well…)

Quick tip: Use store-bought frosting to make this cake even faster – it will taste amazing even if you don’t use frosting at all!

A Classic Casserole With a Nice Upgrade

This isn’t your grandmother’s recipe, but this Bacon-Topped Green Bean Casserole will be at least as well received at any gathering. It takes 40 minutes of prep and bakes in half an hour – now, that’s what I call a breeze! Make it right away, or chill until you are ready. I think that I have seen some version of green bean casserole show up at most every formal Easter, Thanksgiving, or Christmas meal to which I have ever been. Though it was usually good, I more often than not thought that it would be much better with an upgrade. Well, this is the upgrade. Yum!

I was hard pressed on whether to call this a side dish or a main course; in the end, I suppose it is still a side, albeit a rather hearty one. Being able to chill everything for a day or so before final baking, if necessary, makes it really convenient if you are organizing a large meal that requires plenty of advanced prep and planning.

If you like cheesecake and like red velvet cake, you will love this beautiful marriage of the two: the Red Velvet Cheesecake. It’s a decadent blend of textures and flavors that is sure to make your sweet tooth really happy. Wow, this looks so festive and tastes even better! Many people probably would save this treat for the holidays, but with the weather already turning cooler, I just couldn’t resist giving this recipe a try. And boy, am I glad that I did! It’s two of my favorite types of cake, beautifully layered into one.

The mid layer can be deceiving – for someone taking a quick look at this cake, it may look like cream cheese frosting. But it isn’t! It’s the delicious baked cheesecake in between the gorgeous red velvet layers that makes this cake so extra special. Once you have a taste, you will keep going for one more bite!

Super-Moist Cinnamon Goodness

30 September 2015

Argo cornstarch, autumn, bake, baked, baked cake, baker, bakery, bakes, baking, baking powder, baking soda, barilla pasta, Bertolli extra-virgin olive oil, black pepper, Bob's Red Mill, Borden, brown sugar, Campbell’s soups, casserole, Chiquita, cinnamon, cinnamon cake, cinnamon cake recipe, Clabber Girl, College Inn, Cool Whip, crock pot, Daisy sour cream, dessert, dessert recipe, Dole, domino sugar, eat, Eggland's Best eggs, fall, food, Gold Medal flour, gooey, Gooey Cinnamon Cake, granulated sugar, Green Giant, Hershey, Hodgkin’s Mill, holiday, holidays, home, home recipe, Jell-O, Jif peanut butter, Johnsonville, keebler, kosher salt, Kraft, land o lakes butter, Libby, McCormick spices, moist, moist cake, Morton salt, Pam Cooking Spray, Pepperidge Farm, Philadelphia cream cheese, piquant, Powdered sugar, recipe, Ritz crackers, Sara Lee, Sargento, slow cooker, spicy, Super Moist, super-moist cake, sweetly spicy, Thorn Apple Valley, Toll House, TruMoo milk, tyson, vanilla, vanilla extract, Vlasic, Wesson vegetable oil, whipped topping

If you like a cake on the super-moist and sweetly spicy side, this Gooey Cinnamon Cake recipe is definitely worth a try! Actual baking time is only 25 minutes, and it is surprisingly straightforward to put together. I do love the flavor of cinnamon. It is particularly good for fall and for the holidays, though I enjoy it during all times of year. Some recipes that make use of cinnamon as the central ingredient can turn out a bit dry, but that certainly isn’t the case here.

You can use honey as a substitute for the light corn syrup, though you want to be careful to make use of a mildly flavored honey if you do so. Otherwise, it will overpower the other flavors and make the cake a bit too, well, intense. Though there is a little prep work involved here, it’s nothing that should be too difficult for you, so long as you have at least a basic electric mixer to use. Enjoy!

This Fall Cake May Just Be Flip-Worthy

Just like its sibling, the pineapple upside down cake, this Caramel Apple Upside Down cake is loaded with sweet, fruity flavor, only this recipe has more of the spicy comfort of fall than the tastes of summer. I happen to like a good upside down cake, regardless of the exact flavor. I think that this is perfectly suited for autumn and the holiday season, however. There’s nothing like the soothing comfort of caramel and the crisper, slightly acidic sweetness of apple to warm you up during the cooler months..yummy!

Add this to your holiday menu and you’ll become everyone’s favorite chef! This is the perfect dessert to compliment any meal – and I promise you, it’ll also make the most delicious breakfast treat with a hot cup of coffee in the morning.
