This pumpkin spice layer cake is tall and proud.

I used to be afraid to even attempt to make a layer cake but I soon realized what I was missing out on when I made this delicious pumpkin spice and walnut buttercream confection. It wasn’t hard to make at all. Time-consuming? Yes. Hard? No.

Even though the fall season is almost over and Christmas is heartily upon us you can still make a delicious pumpkin spice cake. I always try to have something with pumpkin in it during my family’s Christmas dinner. I think the winner shall be this cake.

I’m super excited that I came across this recipe over on Peanut Butter And Julie Blog! If you’d like to get the details on how to make this wonderful food please hop on over to the next page for a complete list of ingredients and instructions. Enjoy!

Who Else Wants To Eat This Every Day, Holiday Season Or Not?

I love making holiday desserts and I especially love cranberries. You see, not everyone in my family reciprocates my sentiments for the red, round, tart berries. So, in order to get my cranberry fix I have to compromise.

I can’t just serve them straight up cranberry sauce because they won’t eat it. The only way to get my loved ones to eat cranberry sauce is if i buy the overly sugary jellied kind from the grocery store. Not. Gonna. Happen. So, I stumbled upon Good Dinner Mom where I found this recipe for cranberry fluff and all was right with the world!

Tart, crunchy and sweet, this salad is more than just fluffy. It’s super easy to prepare and really packs a punch of flavor. What a great holiday side dish! Another thing I find great about this cranberry fluff salad is how pretty it is. Dare I say that is even girly looking with its pastel pink hue? Shhhh, don’t tell my 10-year-old son that or he will not eat this fluff haha!

Who Else Wants A Slice Of This Amazing Pie?

I can’t wait to make this incredible pie again! And you know what? I will be making this pie again very soon as Thanksgiving is quickly approaching. I know my holiday dinner guests will be super excited to chow down on this yummy dessert.

And what is that pie, you ask! Well, my friends, this is cider eggnog pie and I guarantee you’re going to love it. You’ve never tasted a creamy pie until you’ve tasted this one, that’s how I feel anyway! I, personally, do not like eggnog but I find that the flavors work perfectly in this dessert.

If you’re worried about the cider, don’t be. It’s not a dominant flavor in this pie at all. In fact, if you’re a big fan of apple cider, you may even want to boost up the flavor by replacing all the liquids in this pie with cider. However, this is one of my all-time favorite pie recipes as is, so I would highly recommend giving this a go at first – before you start making any tweaks!

People Will Think You’ve Lost Your Mind When You Tell Them What These Are… Until They Try One!

Have you been searching for the most amazing cookie recipe on the planet? Your search is over, because this is it! You are absolutely going to fall in love with this recipe! Whether you’re making these for a potluck, an office party or just to take to your lovely neighbor, these will always be a huge success. I’m pretty sure if you’re looking for a husband or a wife, these will get you one!

Never in a million years did I think something like bacon would make your ordinary chocolate chip cookies so much better! Fortunately I overheard one of the ladies at my church talking about bacon cookies, and I just had to ask for the recipe. I mean, bacon?? It sounds so weird, doesn’t it?

But when you think about it, salty and sweet is always such a mouth-watering combination! And whenever there’s bacon involved, you can’t go wrong. I have to tell you, though, from personal experience – you may want to cook a double batch of bacon because some of it is going to mysteriously disappear while making these cookies, haha!

Quick Tip: Chill the cookie dough for a while before baking – this way the cookies don’t spread so much.

You’ve Never Tried Banana Bread This Scrumptious Before!

Lately I’ve been trying to find new recipes that would make both; a great breakfast and dessert. It seemed like anything I’ve come across has been a little too unhealthy. Now, I don’t mind if my dessert is all butter and sugar but somehow I feel like I should at least try to make something healthier for breakfast… So I was really excited to try this healthier version.

I’ve already made this twice and I have to say, it’s not just my favorite breakfast – my whole family is crazy about it! It definitely takes a healthier approach by using some fat-free yogurt, but don’t let that fool you. This still makes the most delightful dessert, too!

With the addition of walnuts you are going to give your body a great boost on many levels (I suggest you read about the health benefits of walnuts – wow!) And if you feel like this isn’t fancy enough for dessert, try serving it warm with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. It’s going to blow you away!

Quick Tip: This recipe makes about 16 servings (well 8, if you like this bread as much as I do!)

An Easy Dessert For Anyone Who Loves Apples! Or Streusel! Or Cheesecake!

I’ve tried so many recipes over the years that it’s not easy to completely wow me anymore. But these awesome apple streusel cheesecake bars really did! Oh, how I would love to enjoy these every single day of the week. Yum! But since that’s probably not going to be good for my figure, I try to settle for making these once a month.

I guarantee the first time you sink your teeth into these delicious bars, you’re going to hear a symphony. It’s your taste buds playing a love song to all of these incredible flavors that are so beautifully colliding in each bite.

It took all of my will power to keep from eating half a batch in one go. They’re just so good, it’s almost impossible to stop reaching for “one more”! And that’s why I would recommend making 2 batches. Who cares about calories when they taste so amazing!

Quick Tip: If you’d like even more apple flavor, you could use 2 cans of apple pie filling.

Amp Up Your Breakfast With This Amazing Recipe!

I was strolling towards the mall just a couple of weeks ago with a few shopping bags in hand when I smelled the most delicious smell I have ever encountered in my life. Since I was passing by the food court with so many places to eat, I couldn’t determine which among all of those was the one who caught my attention. But since I was a bit tired from all the walking and shopping, I decided to take a break and sit down on one of the metal benches. It felt good to sit down and take in the aroma of that delicious food!

As I was busy looking at my buys, there was that smell again. When I looked up, I immediately realized that it was coming from a bakery vendor just a couple of feet away from me.

The vendor was selling freshly baked bread and I had to have a slice of that bread or I would go crazy. It was a cranberry banana loaf. One bite was enough for me to buy a whole loaf which I could bring home.

I didn’t know cranberry and banana could taste that good in a bread! It’s like a match made in heaven! It tastes really good with tea or coffee too. You’ve got to try this recipe!
