Easy 2 Ingredient Cake Recipe

Easy 2 Ingredient Cake Recipe

We had originally partnered with Vintage Seltzer for this recipe and it really couldn’t be any easier to make! This 2 ingredient cake recipe is so delicious and so quick! I love to bake. For some it’s a therapeutic activity, for some it’s their profession, for some it’s something that they dread. For me, baking brings back memories of spending time in the kitchen with my mom. But, as much as I do love to bake, there are times that I don’t have to time to make an elaborate cake from scratch. So I’ll look for my shortcuts when I can and I’m definitely not above using a boxed mix to make a cake. However, I may not always have the additional ingredients on hand…

Crushed Candy Cupcake

If you’re looking for a way to use up that leftover Halloween candy, this is the recipe for you! My kids absolutely LOVED making this crushed candy cupcake.  Growing up, Halloween was one of my favorite holidays. My mom usually made my costumes and I always looked forward to trick or treating with my friends. As I started getting older, Halloween started to lose some of it’s appeal but becoming a mom changed that again. Granted, I don’t always look forward to Halloween in terms of dealing with trick or treaters, but over the past few years I’ve started to enjoy it more. I’d love to start really decorating for Halloween again but in the meantime, I have fun planning ahead for Halloween. We usually…

While you could certainly make this easy French toast biscuits for breakfast at anytime of the year, this might also be an alternative for Christmas morning. Or for a Christmas brunch. And to be perfectly honest with you? I enjoyed one of these for dessert or an afternoon snack when my sweet tooth hit.

Easy and Delicious Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

Easy and Delicious Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

I absolutely love chocolate chip banana bread and this recipe is so easy! It started with a search for banana bread recipes that didn’t use flour as I was trying to make a gluten free option for a church friend. I did find a few recipes that I’ll try out in the near future. But this particular recipe is not gluten free. This recipe yields a regular sized loaf of banana bread but since I was making mine to take to church, I ended up using two loaf pans. Actually I can’t really call them loaf pans but they sure are handy to have! I love easy baking recipes. Like my French toast biscuit bake. A lot of the prep-work on those can be done…

I also looked for a simple glaze recipe to make these extra…
