Individual Rhubarb Bundt Cakes

May 27, 2014 by Kay Leave a Comment

Individual Rhubarb Bundt Cakes are the perfect mix of a sweet cake and the tartness of rhubarb topped with a sweet rhubarb curd. I hope everyone enjoyed their Memorial Day weekend. The weather in Wisconsin was beautiful, I couldn’t have asked for better weather. I did spend some time in the kitchen but I also attended a birthday party for my 4 year old niece and almost 2 year old nephew. The party was outside and it’s always fun watching young kids play and entertain. My brother and sister-in-law, Dave & Kathy, are here from New Hampshire along with their daughter, Sarah, from Baltimore. When they come to town we always go out for fish, perch to be exact, because you can’t get a Wisconsin Fish Fry anywhere else! The other item they enjoy when in Wisconsin is cheese curds, deep fried to a golden brown and they go real well with the fish fry! This nice weather brings rhubarb fresh for the picking. I went and picked a bag full the other day. I froze some of it and the rest I used in today’s recipe, Individual Rhubarb Bundt Cakes. Moist, sweet lemon flavored bundt cake with tart rhubarb mixed in.

Enjoy!

Lemon Ricotta Cake

May 5, 2014 by Kay 4 Comments

Lemon Ricotta Cake is a super moist cake that is perfect served with fresh strawberries.

One thing you can find lots of in Italy is lemons and my recipe for Lemon Ricotta Cake takes me back to my trip to the Amalfi Coast and the tons of lemons the size of pineapples, I am not kidding, they were that big!

How was everyone’s weekend? We had a dinner party on Friday night and had some friends over. My husband, Mr. B broke out his smoker for the year and he smoked a pork butt and as always, it was very delicious. He has mastered smoking a pork butt.

Along with the smoked pork I served a roasted cauliflower salad, baked beans, and paprika garlic corn. I will feature the salad and baked beans in the next week or so, they are new recipes. The Paprika Garlic Corn I featured not so long ago and let me tell you, it has such a great flavor.

I also made a Raspberry Sauce to use in Mimosa’s and as a topping for the ice cream we had for dessert. To go with the Raspberry Sauce I made a Cinnamon Fudge Sauce to serve with the ice cream. Again, I will feature those recipe’s at a later date.

Mother’s Day is fast approaching, I will feature some recipes this week that would be great for a Mother’s Day Brunch or as a special dessert for your Mom. First up, Lemon Ricotta Cake. Ricotta cheese helps to make this cake extra moist and the lemon zest gives the cake an extra zip of lemon which I love. I love citrus flavored desserts.

Enjoy!

Cinnamon Fudge Cake

March 17, 2014 by Kay 15 Comments

Cinnamon Fudge Cake is a decadent, chocolate & cinnamon filled cake that comes alive in your mouth and it makes you want more!

I don’t normally pair chocolate and cinnamon together, but in this case it really works.  You bake this cake on a 9 x 12 baking sheet, so the cake to frosting ratio is perfect. I tend to like more frosting than cake, so this is the perfect cake for me.

When I bake goodies in my kitchen for my blog I tend to take some of the baked goods to work with me to share with my fellow co-workers. I will be honest with you, after my hubby Mr. B and I had a slice, it was evident that this cake would not be shared with my co-workers.

I will tell you that I microwaved my piece of cake for ab out 20 seconds and it helps to soften the frosting, and it is oh so perfect 🙂

I will not lie, after I ate my first piece, I had to have a second piece right away. Needless to say, I skipped dinner that night or I guess I had cake for dinner and that’s Ok to do sometimes.

The cherry in the frosting comes from cherry juice added to the buttercream and it gives the frosting a pretty pink color, perfect for Valentine’s Day.

It's a big cake!

Yield: 12 Slices

Cherry Vanilla Cake

Ingredients

  • 2 – 15.25 ounce boxes vanilla cake mix
  • Ingredients called for on cake box
  • 1 – 3 ounce box cherry Jello-O mix
  • Frosting:
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • 1 – 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup maraschino cherry juice
  • 4 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a bundt pan well with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Prepare cake mix according to box directions. Pour one third to one half of batter into bundt pan.
  • Reserve 1 tablespoon JELL-O mix for frosting and add remaining mix to remaining cake batter. Stir just till well blended. Spoon batter into bundt pan over the top of your white batter. Do not fill bundt pan past 2/3 full. If you have batter left over, make them into cupcakes.
  • Bake cake for 45-55 minutes (cupcakes for 19-22 minutes). Test for doneness using a toothpick. Remove from oven and let cake cool in pan for 20 minutes before inverting onto plate to cool completely.
  • For the frosting, mix together the butter and cream cheese until smooth. Dissolve the 1 tbsp. of jello in the cherry juice and mix until incorporated, then add to the butter and cream cheese mixture and combine. Add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, until blended making sure you don’t over mix or the frosting will become too thin. Frost the cake and let set before you cut and serve the cake.
  • Store cake in the refrigerator.

Notes

If you can't find vanilla cake mix use a white cake mix and add 4 tsp. vanilla to the recipe.
