Homemade lemon curd. This recipe came about when we happily found ourselves with a double bag of lemons and half a dozen yolks leftover from a previous baking project. I wanted a curd that used up my excess yolks and not whole eggs. The deliciousness that was born from this was amazing!

Maple Pecan baked brie has been a go to appetizer since the first time I made it. It’s wonderful, not to mention wonderfully easy. Even back when the idea of making an appetizer would throw me into a cold sweat, this maple pecan brie stepped up to save the day time and again.

I like to have fun with all sorts of cookie houses. I have long since moved on from only classical gingerbread houses to other combinations. And today’s winning combination is chocolate and peanut butter!

Apple butter is delicious! On warm buttered toast, in baked goods or even on pork chops. The slow cooked apples result in such a smooth tasty reduction.

We call this orange bread. And it’s delicious! It’s like a pound cake, with the most wonderfully dense centre and incredible crust. Any citrus -buttermilk combo will work, but I am particularly partial to orange. Which I think says a lot about this particular loaf, because I am almost never partial to orange.

So try not to gasp out loud, but I do not really care for the famed Italian plum tart. I have tried several recipes from reputable and trusted sources. I really tried. Promise. But they often tasted either plain or soggy. I fully accept that I may be the problem. But it is a problem that brought me to this Italian plum and almond loaf, so I can’t be too hard on myself!

This chocolate trifle recipe was given to me verbally by a friend years ago. Enough time has passed that I can’t actually recall if the way I make it now was the original directions or how I’ve adapted it over the years. Either way it is a yummy dessert with layers of brownie, chocolate mousse and whipped cream with Skor bar through out. This is one easy dessert. There are a couple steps, but not a lot of baking or skill required.

I live with a lemonade enthusiast. She’s little, but she’s mighty. When it’s too warm for the hot chocolate, bring on the lemonade! There used to be a local fast food joint that would have cheap, frozen lemonade in the summer months that was wildly popular with said youngest child. Sadly they have not offered it for some time now. So I figured I better learn to make some myself.

Gluten free coconut cream cake has been my go to dairy and gluten free cake, whenever the occasion calls for it! It’s light as a cloud and creamy. The coconut, vanilla and pillowy marshmallow frosting pair exceptionally well together.

Not only is this delicious pizza sauce that comes together in far less time than it takes the dough to rise, it uses up any leftover canned diced tomatoes I often have in the fridge. Since not all recipes call for an entire 28 ounces of diced tomatoes, I often have a cup or so left in the fridge. Which makes this sauce even more of a breeze.
