Naked Carrot Cake with Coconut Cream Frosting (Vegan+GF)
Blogging this past year has made me realize a lot of things about myself that I never knew. One of which is the fact that I might be obsessed with cake. I wouldn’t have thought so but recently I’ve just wanted to bake cakes. So you know how I was talking about fads the other day? Yeah, well, the “naked” cake look is another one of those that is really in right now and I’ve been on the fence about how I feel about it. For a while I thought I’d never do a cake like that because cake decorating is basically in my blood. Both my mother and my grandmother have been…

The BEST Vegan Boston Cream Pie
This is the only recipe for VEGAN Boston cream pie that you will ever need my friends!!! Isn’t it a beautiful thing? I think it’s a beautiful thing if I do say so myself. Hey, I don’t get credit for how pretty smooth chocolate ganache looks all on its own. I only post recipes after they have been approved by my loyal gang of quality control taste-testers (AKA my family and friends). This recipe has been thoroughly tested and repeated a few times now. It’s a definite keeper. Why is a Boston Cream Pie Called a “Pie”? You may have wondered why they call it Boston cream “pie” when it is actually a…

Fluffy Whole Wheat Eggnog Pancakes with Homemade Eggnog
Get ready for some good news…..we’re having “eggnog” pancakes! Okay, so I had some leftover nog the other day this idea just came to me, “What better way to use them during the holidays than making some delicious pancakes? It’s all over now. I don’t know that we will ever be able to go back to regular pancakes. My family loved these so much that I wouldn’t be surprised if they blackmail me into making nog in June just so that I can make these. They were that good.

Easy Mini Chocolate Chip Cookie Crumble Trifles (Vegan)
Hey guys! Guess what? Today is National Chocolate Pudding Day! So my family is somewhat obsessed with chocolate chip cookies. I think they would be completely happy if I made them everyday but how boring would that be? It’s pretty hilarious because I am always wanting to try some new flavor or recipe and everyone just wants to eat chocolate chip cookies. This is where we have a problem. I mean, I think chocolate chip cookies are great and I’m sure you do too but I can’t exactly post the recipe everyday and I just don’t have the time to make a bunch of different recipes everyday either. Trying to make everyone happy…

Triple Chocolate Sour Cream Scones (Vegan)
I am posting one of my favorite new recipes. You seriously have to try it unless you are a scone hater. I mean, is it just me or are scones notorious for being dry and bland? The people who think that have obviously never had a good scone. My family loves scones but I usually just do basic. This time we needed a serious chocolate fix so went for triple chocolate and the results pretty much speak for themselves. These scones were a hit. We all agreed that they somehow taste exactly like chocolate pop-tarts, but better. Not sure how that happened but I am just gonna go with it. They’re like chocolate…
