sheet cake updated for Honey
My mom’s birthday was not too long ago and we had a big family dinner to celebrate her. My brother and sis-in-law grilled out my mom’s favorites (ribs) and I was responsible for dessert and a side (the side recipe will come soon). For the dessert I asked her what she wanted and she said sheet cake…sheet cake really? THE DARKER THE BETTER (AT LEAST FOR ME) In my mind I was thinking about a beautiful layered cake, maybe cupcakes or a even a pie but mom wanted sheet cake…so I decided to take our family’s favorite sheet cake recipe and amp it up a bit…to make it a dark…

an unexpected sweet bundt treat
Now I know that when you think of Holiday desserts pumpkin is at the top of the list . As crazy as this might sound, my family are not big pumpkin lovers so we have always had several additional options besides the traditional pumpkin pie….one always being a bundt cake. We love the traditional bundts but we also love this chocolate, chocolate chip bundt cake for chocolate lovers. A new favorite is this butter bundt. It is lighter than a more dense cream cheese bundt cake but still super rich and full of butter love in each bite. When my brother and sis-in-law were down a month or so ago we had a big…
