These key lime whoopie pies are comprised of a Graham cracker flavored cake filled with a buttercream flavored with the juice of fresh key limes. 

Mango Cream with Berries

This mango cream with berries is an amazing dessert that is deceptively easy to put together with fresh mangos, limes, two kinds of milk, and finished with a generous amount of fresh berries. 

This mango cream is pretty magical. All you need is a peeler, a knife, a blender, and a can opener to create this smooth and custardy dessert.

Strawberry Lemonade Mascarpone Cheesecakes

Strawberry lemonade mascarpone cheesecakes with a creamy and lemony mascarpone filling and a fresh strawberry topping. 

The recipe for these little strawberry lemonade mascarpone cheesecakes makes just enough for two four inch desserts, which makes them perfect for a dinner for two. 

Candied Kumquats

 These candied kumquats are a wonderful way to enjoy the abundance of the fruit this time of year.

Candied kumquats are delicious over vanilla ice cream (kind of like the flavors of creamsicles), wonderful in salads, and just plain good on their own. You can even make kumquatinis! 

Chocolate Whiskey Cupcakes

These chocolate whiskey cupcakes are both intensely chocolatey and boozy, with a hint of coffee to enhance the deep chocolate flavor.

You have got to try these super moist and super chocolatey cupcakes. I've frosted them with a chocolate, coffee, and whiskey ganache, but you can frost them with a fluffy vanilla buttercream if you prefer. 

Buttermilk Birthday Cake with Creamy Chocolate Frosting

This birthday cake, with a buttermilk based batter, will remind you of your favorite kids' birthday party cake.

This buttermilk birthday cake is about as easy to make as a cake mix cake (except for the separating eggs and folding in egg whites part, but you can do it!). Plus, you make it in a sheet pan, taking away the stress of having to create a stunningly decorated cake. Just spread on a creamy chocolate frosting and hide any flaws with lots and lots of sprinkles.

Pecan Pralines

These pecan pralines are so decadent, sweet, and loaded with toasted pecans.

These classic Southern pecan pralines have a melt-in-your-mouth texture that is hard to describe. They are not exactly soft or sticky, but they are easy to bite into, and they are not super chewy, even though they have a caramel-ish flavor.

Coffee Caramel Sauce

This coffee caramel sauce will give you your coffee fix in the form of pretty much the most delicious dessert and ice cream topping.

You can use this coffee caramel sauce in just about any recipe that calls for caramel and take that recipe to another level. You could even use this coffee caramel sauce in a caramel macchiato... coffee in your coffee!

Lemony Baked Doughnuts
