White Mountain Cake with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting
White Mountain Cake with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting I’m a little behind this month so thankfully I found this recipe that I had never posted this past summer. This recipe is for White Mountain Cake. This cake is very special for me for two reasons. Firstly, this cake recipe comes from a long time family friend who passed away a few years ago. His name was John but everyone called him Jack. He suffered from a stroke when I was a teenager and I’d go to visit him in the nursing home often. I’d always sneak in a coffee and donuts. The stroke had left him unable to speak correctly.…

If you have been following me for a while, you may already know that of my love for all things fall! I literally love EVERYTHING about this season! Comfy sweatshirts, beautifully arranged mums sitting on porches, and especially pumpkin! Every year I get excited for the announcement that Dunkin Donuts is finally serving their pumpkin flavored coffees! Just give me this pumpkin cake and some Dunkin Donuts pumpkin flavored coffee and I’ll be a happy camper!

Chocolate Whoopie Pie Cake
Chocolate Whoopie Pie Cake (This is a recipe my mother found in an old church cookbook when I was a child and she has been using it ever since) If you are a fan of whoopie pies, like me, but not a fan of making them, then you are going to love this recipe. This Chocolate Whoopie Pie Cake is so easy to make and only bakes for about 15 minutes. The hardest part about making one of these cakes is flipping the one cake on top of the other. You have to wait until both cakes are cooled then spread the icing on one cake and flip the other…

Orange Chiffon Cake ~ Recipe from 1948
// Orange Chiffon Cake ~ Recipe from 1948 I lost my Nana 3 weeks ago. After a 4 year battle with cancer, cancer finally won. When you know where you are going, death doesn’t have to be a sad or scary thing but rather a celebration. I use the word celebration because I know my Nana is no longer suffering. In fact, I bet she is up in heaven horseback riding this very moment… she loved horses. Cancer may have taken her flesh but it couldn’t take her soul. No. that belonged to Jesus. I fully believe that she took her last breath here on earth and her very next…

Take it away Christie: I wanted to break out of my cookie rut and try something different today. The French Macaron has always intrigued me and while I’ve…
