Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dump Cake

October 6, 2014 by Kay Leave a Comment

Hello Everyone,

I am back! I know it has been awhile since I have posted and I am sorry about that. Thank you for your patience while I have been absent.

I am back with a delicious pumpkin dessert, Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dump Cake. This dessert reminds me of my favorite beverage this time of year, the Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks.

It comes together quickly and is sure to satisfy your craving for pumpkin this time of year. The base is a can of pumpkin, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar and pumpkin pie spice. To the top of that you pipe a mixture of cream cheese and powdered sugar. Then comes the dumping part, a dry cake mix is dumped on top and drizzled with melted butter.

Keep this recipe in mind for any desserts you need to make this fall, especially for Thanksgiving.

Enjoy!

Zucchini Cake with Brown Sugar Frosting

August 29, 2014 by Kay Leave a Comment

Super moist, very flavorful and extra sweet describe this cake made with fresh zucchini and no one will ever know there is a vegetable in Zucchini Cake with Brown Sugar Frosting (unless you tell them the name!).

The zucchini does really add a nice element to this cake and it’s a great way to use up any extra zucchini you might have left over from your CSA or your garden. Zucchini is also in abundance at Farmers Markets, so check there if you are in need of some for this recipe.

The key to this recipe is making sure to squeeze out some of the juice of the zucchini after you have shredded it, you don’t want the batter to be too thin.

Enjoy!

Honey Pound Cake

July 9, 2014 by Kay Leave a Comment

Honey Pound Cake is super dense and super sweet with the taste of honey.

Fresh berries are so in season right now and I thought I would share a pound cake recipe to serve with your fresh berries. I usually make a cream cheese pound cake. I ran across a recipe that uses honey and I thought that would be so delicious with fresh berries.

I am amazed how much the honey flavor comes through in this recipe. I recommend using a local home grown honey, it really will make a difference in this recipe. I used a honey made in Minnesota, AMES. I bought it at the Minneapolis Farmers Market. When ever I visit my daughter, Kiley we always make a stop at the farmers market, it is fabulous!

Here is a tidbit, from spring to fall most areas have a farmers market. I suggest visiting and supporting local farmers. You will get fresh produce and you are buying local. It’s also nice to talk to the farmers and ask for suggestions or find out more about their farm. I firmly believe in buying local, it keeps the local economy thriving.

Enjoy!

  • Cool the cake for 15 minutes before removing from the pan. To remove, take a knife and go around the perimeter of the pan to loosen the cake, make sure to go on the outside of the parchment paper. Take hold of the 2 side of the parchment paper with 2 hands and life the cake up and set on a cutting board to finish cooling.

Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce on Berry Blue Cake

July 2, 2014 by Kay Leave a Comment

Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce is a sweet topping with a hint of cinnamon. Serve it on Berry Blue Cake for a festive look on the 4th of July.

Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce starts by boiling rhubarb, water, sugar and lemon zest on the stove until the rhubarb is soft. Then add in the fresh strawberries, lemon juice, cinnamon and some food coloring (to get a bright red color) and the sauce is ready to eat!

Serve this wonderful sauce on cake (see below for my easy Berry Blue Cake), ice cream, pancakes or biscuits.

Going with my theme of red, white and blue this week in honor of the 4th of July I made a quick Berry Blue Cake. It is a box cake mix with jello added in to give the blue color. Kids and adults will both love this dessert.

Enjoy!
