Buttery rich French madeleines dipped in white chocolate with a sprinkle of festive peppermint candy cane pieces. Perfect morning or afternoon bite-sized perks with coffee or tea. Made simply with butter, flour, sugar, and eggs. One of my favorite memories from visiting Paris was picking a random arrondissement in the morning and walking around. You could…

Bananas Foster Bourbon Bundt Cakes
Say that three times fast…. after eating some of this glaze icing. How often do you all find yourself sitting around the house in your adult-fit onesie, watching YouTube recordings of early seasons of The Great British Bake Off, an Old Fashioned in hand, thinking of new blog recipe ideas? That’s a regular Saturday morning…
Peanut Butter Cup S’mores Cupcakes

Banana Pudding Whiskey Cupcakes
Here in the South, banana puddin’ (or pudding, if you’re fancy) is the nectar of the gods. If you go to any legit meat and three, it is expected that this will one of your 3 veggies. It totally counts, and you’d be a fool to not follow the tradition. Since I sometime don’t feel…

I’m sure you’ve seen them by now. Those cake finishes that should be on a wall for you to look at yourself in. Super-glossy, bright colors, almost too pretty to eat. (Almost. Nothing is ever too pretty to actually eat.) After plenty of painstaking hours of testing recipes and half-assed finishes, I finally mastered the shimmering…
Blueberry Cake Donuts
This is where I should start with some lovely story about how I went and picked blueberries on an organic farm just outside of busy Nashville one morning, carrying them home in a little wicker basket to toss them together with some other things to end up with the most perfect little homemade donuts ever. The…
Plum Glazed Cake Donuts
A week or so ago, I was wandering around the Nashville Farmer’s Market with some friends when it hit me. Like a glimmer of a hidden treasure chest in the corner of my eye. The older lady behind the table must have seen my unconscious excitement, and started to try and sell me on the…
