The Best Brown Sugar Buttercream Frosting

Wow! This really is the best brown sugar buttercream frosting. I had a box spice cake mix and an abundance of brown sugar left over from Christmas baking, and I was hoping to find a way to use both.

A unique take on a traditional butter cream frosting. Rich, creamy and delicious with a hint of caramel. This Best Brown Sugar Buttercream Frosting is extremely yummy and would be great on so many types of cakes:  Chocolate, Apple, any kind of Spice Cake, Pumpkin … let your imagination be your guide...  even Pumpkin.

Lemon Sugar Cookie Bars

Image
I made this in a 9X13 (1/4) sheetpan and I doubled the recipe and had extra cookie dough even after loading the top. I wrapped it up to save in case I get a cookie craving. I know in my gas oven it took longer than 30 minutes for both bakes. They are delish! I could not resist trying them while warm…lol I’ve baked plenty of treats for family, friends, and colleagues, and I’ve never received praise like after I made them these lemon cookie bars! It kind of made me feel like I’ve been making them garbage food up until now because they went so gaga over these bars. They are universally enjoyed; adults and kids raved about them. Everyone wanted the recipe. They commented on the perfect ratios of dough-to-filling, and sweet-to-tart These easy lemon bars have a sweet sugar cookie crust topped with a tangy lemon cheesecake filling and then topped with more sugar cookie crumble. The perfect balance of sweet and tangy.  Get the full recipe and instructions here >> Lemon

Oreo Cookie Milkshake

Image
Yeah, the good stuff in the middle! Then it’s topped with MORE homemade cream filling, some more Oreo cookie bits, whipped cream, and more Oreo cookies! It’s pretty much all of your daily calories in one milkshake. Again, I’m sorry.  How do you eat an Oreo cookie? Are you a dunk-it-in-milk eater? Break it in half and lick off the cream filling? Break it in half, eat the side without the cream filling before eating the good side? Or do you just bite it? Or perhaps one bite?  Ready to make your own milkshakes? This the recipe for the milkshake which also includes the recipe for making homemade Oreo cream filling: Get the full recipe and instructions here >> Oreo Cookie Milkshake @ saltycanary.com

Blackberry Pie

I made this pie last night, and it was amazing. My blackberry bush has gone haywire this season producing large quantities of blackberries. So far I’ve made jars and jars of preserves, a cobbler and a pie, but now that I’ve made THIS pie, I’ll be freezing whatever more blackberries I can get from the bush to make this pie throughout the winter! I used the pre-made boxed refrigerated pie crusts, but brushed them with melted unsalted butter and sprinkled with sugar. YUM-O!

Triple Berry Pie

Image
Triple Berry Pie is my FAVORITE Thanksgiving Pie, and it's super easy to make with fresh or frozen raspberries, blueberries and blackberries. Perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas or any time you’re craving some pie. It has the perfect amount of liquid to yield a pie slice that holds its shape. Some berry pies are so juicy that they completely fall apart when you cut into them. This one will turn out beautifully, as long as you let it cool for several hours before cutting into it. This Triple Berry Pie has way less sugar than most berry pies. It’s still amazingly sweet, but it’s not overly sweet, like some berry pies tend to be.

Salted Caramel Butter Bars

Image
I made caramel bars once and they vanished so quickly, they are sooo good! They came out perfectly on the second try. I wonder if I messed up some measurements the first time? Anyhow AMAZING RECIPE! Quick tip on flattening the dough at the bottom of the pan: After putting the dough at the bottom, cover it with parchment paper or saran wrap, then use another 9×13 pan to flatten it. They are so rich and buttery, complete with that soft and tender sugar cookie crumb and the golden, decadent caramel layer. If you can’t find salted caramel sauce, or just want to cut back on the salt, feel free to use a regular caramel sauce (or make your own caramel!) and sprinkle a little more sea salt on top. Salted Caramel Butter Bars are gooey, ultra buttery cookie bars loaded with rich salted caramel. So divine!  Get the full recipe and instructions here >>  Salted Caramel Butter Bars @ thedomesticrebel.com

I made these today. Delicious! This recipe is definitely a keeper.They are definitely moist and have all the right qualities, I might have to add a little baking soda in there to counter the vinegar.  Oh my goodness!!!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Cone recipe and tutorial

Image
This is the best of both worlds! Cookies and ice cream together. This is brilliant!! My nephews would be thrilled! These are just a classic, crunchy, chocolate chip cookie recipe. If you have one you love try it, but it needs to be thin and crunchy, has to hold it’s shape. No soft cookie recipes will do for THIS! So There are a few tutorials out there, I did mine waffle cone style, a large circle that you roll into shape, overlapping the ends. Ingredients 2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened 2/3 cup granulated sugar 3/4 cup packed brown sugar 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 large eggs 1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips Get the recipe here >>  Chocolate Chip Cookie Cone recipe and tutorial @ ashleemarie.com

Pumpkin Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

Image
OMG! I have made six of your donut recipes so far. All amazing but this one is hands down my favorite so far! Addictive. YUMMO!!!!!! Best vegan donuts I’ve had and so easy to make.  I made these for breakfast this morning and after realizing that the only difference between the vegan and traditional version was the coconut oil, I decided to just use vegan butter (Earth Balance, to be exact). We really liked them since we still got the butter flavor of the traditional version! Moist and fluffy Pumpkin Cinnamon Sugar donuts are baked, not fried, and ready in just 20 minutes!
