Coffee Cake Muffins

⋅ Leave a comment

Since Labor Day is officially over, I can now start bringing some fall flavors to this blog! (Watch out, pumpkin might be incorporated to every recipe I make…) To transition from summer into fall, today I am sharing with you coffee cake muffins!

Coffee cake muffins are the perfect breakfast with a cup of coffee. They go great with cold brew coffee on those hotter days or warm coffee for when it’s colder in the mornings. Joe has been dying for me to make coffee cake muffins ever since he tried Dunkin’ Donuts’ version, so this was kind of a no brainer to make. Joe even helped make these! #joeBakes?

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cheesecake

⋅ 2 Comments

Since I bake desserts pretty much every other day, many of the leftovers go to my coworkers. The other day one of my fellow nurses requested that I make a peanut butter cheesecake. I did some research, and stumbled across this recipe .

It looked so good on the screen I just wanted to eat a piece right then. However, I felt like the cheesecake needed a little something more so I added peanut butter frosting and little mini Reese’s cups. I absolutely love these little mini cups because they are so stinkin’ cute. Plus, you can eat like 10 of them and not feel as guilty.

This cheesecake is easy to make but requires time to chill. Trust me, it is worth it in the end!

Vanilla Bean Cupcakes

If I was given the choice to choose between a chocolate cupcake and this vanilla cupcake, I would choose these vanilla bean cupcakes every dang time. Considering I’m the girl who is addicted to chocolate, that says a lot!

This cupcake is like biting into a vanilla frosted cloud. It’s so moist, light, and flavorful. These are made with both vanilla extract and a vanilla bean so they have twice the amount of flavor compared to other vanilla cupcakes.

Peach Pie

Happy National Eat a Peach Day! What better way to eat a peach than in a peach pie?! Plus it’s a healthy way to get your fruits for the day…. am I right?

Peach pie is the epitome of summer desserts. This is a classic, no frills peach pie with just peaches, sugar, flour, and a whole lotta butter.

I used to be terrified of making pies because I thought pie crust was way too difficult to make and I thought I needed some fancy tools to make it look nice. Boy, was I wrong! This pie crust is SO EASY and you can use your hands to make it.

Funfetti Confetti Cookie Cake

Hey y’all! This Wednesday I bring to you a funfetti confetti cookie cake! Oh my goodness. This dessert makes any celebration 1000 times better. Birthdays are not complete without it, heck, no celebration is complete without it. I decided to make this cookie cake to celebrate the Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale!

For anyone who doesn’t know me, I am obsessed with Lilly Pulitzer. They have the cutest printed dresses and clothing that are filled with bright colors. This is a major event since there are only two sales a year. What better way to celebrate than with a soft, chewy, colorful funfetti cookie cake? This cake is loaded with rainbow sprinkles, white chocolate chips, and a buttercream icing that is to die for.
