Reese’s Peanut Butter Cupcakes (she: Jana)

ByJana

One of my favorite sweet combinations is peanut butter and chocolate. Whoever first came up with combining them IS A GENIUS! We can’t get enough of it at our house. And these cupcakes are perfect for the chocolate/peanut butter lovers in your life! Honestly, the peanut butter frosting is beyond amazing! So, just know that when you make these you’ll probably end up eating your weight in frosting…you’ll be lucky if there’s any left for the cupcakes!

Gingerbread Crumb Cake

Gingerbread Crumb Cake

ByMariel

I’m a huge fan of fall flavors… apple, pumpkin, caramel, ginger, you name it. My sister-in-law, Bonnie, who has fabulous recipes (my favorite cinnamon rolls and chewy cereal treat!) hooked me up with this new favorite, Gingerbread Crumb Cake. So, Dan is funny. He will basically only eat chocolate desserts, so if I make anything non-chocolate, i.e. Gingerbread Crumb Cake, I’m on my own. So, I have to plan my non-chocolate dessert making very, very carefully. Will I be able to keep myself from eating the whole thing? Do I know anyone in close proximity who will help me eat this? Can I find some privacy to eat a third helping, if I so choose to? … lots to consider.

I’m currently working with a personal trainer, a rock-hard body building chick, who kicks my trash on a regular basis, which I seriously need. I have been allotted Sunday as my ‘free day,’ where I can eat what I want. That’s it. So, I make my chosen dessert Sunday (after planning it all week), and eat it Sunday.

Pumpkin Gingersnap Bark (she: Cathy)

Bycathy

Hey, Everyone! It’s Cathy from Lemon Tree Dwelling here to share a simple and delicious fall recipe with you. I don’t know about you, but as soon as the leaves start to fall, my mind turns to all things pumpkin! Pumpkin bread, pumpkin lattes, pumpkin pie…..is there anything better at this time of year? I’ve been having a blast getting creative with pumpkin in my Lemon Tree kitchen….and I’m so excited to share this fun and festive recipe with you today!

There are some things that go particularly well with pumpkin…..like ginger…..and some things that go particularly well with everything…..like white chocolate! So, I thought, why not mix them all together!? And, since I love all types of candy bark, I thought it would be fun to make one specifically for fall. For all the pumpkin lovers out there!

Frozen Peppermint Patty Pie (she: Jana)

ByJana

One of my favorite treats is a York Peppermint Patty straight from the freezer. I love going home during the summer because my parents always have a big box of them stored in their freezer. What a delight! (I don’t dare do that at home or I would constantly binge!) And incidentally that’s not the ONLY reason I like going home!:)

And if there’s one thing better than a frozen peppermint patty, it’s a Frozen Peppermint Patty PIE!! And it literally takes about 10 minutes to throw this bad boy together & you don’t have to worry about heating up your kitchen in the process! So throw this together and …taste the sensation!

Strawberry Cupcakes with Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting

ByMariel

One of my favorite things about summer is when the ripe strawberries come to Costco. I love buying those big containers and munching on fresh strawberries all day long. Mmmmm! I just love those darn things. So, while the husband was away at Scout camp, this past week, I had my little sister over to keep me company. We medicated my loneliness by painting our nails, going out to eat every day, dancing in the driveway (did you see our Instagram pics?), and scarfing Strawberry Cupcakes with Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting at midnight. Good times. We obsess over these cupcakes and they’re perfect for using up some of your Costco strawberries. They’re also perfect for loneliness.

Double Chocolate Zucchini Cake (she: Tanna)

ByTanna

Hi there! I’m Tanna and I blog over at The Hub of our Home. I’m so excited to be a new food contributor here on Or so she says.

My mom has been making this Double Chocolate Zucchini Cake since I was a little kid and it has always been a favorite of mine. You start with a simple chocolate cake, mix in some zucchini for moisture, sprinkle it with some chocolate chips, and top it all off with a simple powdered sugar glaze. This cake is a great way for any of you who actually have a live producing plant to use up your zucchini. Or if you are like me this cake is totally worth buying some zucchini at the store. Trust me.

Cinnamon Bear Popcorn

ByMariel

I’ve been on a snack kick lately. It teeters back and forth between unhealthy and healthy. Right now, I’m leaning towards… um, something healthier than an ice cream brownie sundae, with every topping in the world. Every topping. Oh, and whipped cream. So, I actually think I’m doing pretty darn good. Cinnamon Bear Popcorn, definitely the better choice.

Anyway, the ladies at church put together and a cookbook. I love it! It’s been my favorite book because there are so many fabulous cooks in my ward, it’s fun to try out their recipes. You’ll probably be seeing a lot more recipes from there.

Giant Cinnamon Rolls (she: Kate)

Bykate

The mall is trouble for me – not because of the shopping but because I love all the treats there! And the cinnamon rolls at the mall are one of my biggest weaknesses. They smell like buttery, sugary, carby Heaven, and they taste even better.

These cinnamon rolls have all of the gooey, buttery, cinnamon goodness and are topped with a rich cream cheese frosting. So, you get all of the cinnamon roll deliciousness without the hassle of a trip to the mall.
