A few days ago, I posted a healthy carrot salad recipe and mentioned that another carrot recipe would follow. When I saw a recipe for Kay’s Carrot Cake posted by one of my favorite food blogger’s I knew right away I wanted to try it. Paula, from Salad in a Jar, made it for her mom’s 93rd birthday! The original recipe comes from Paula’s sister, Kay. Paula includes her own variation which is a little more healthy. Or, I should say, a little less unhealthy 🙂Continue Reading
I’ve made mixed berry cheesecake many times because it is often requested. It looks spectacular and tastes amazing!
One of my all-time favorite recipes from Tyler Florence are these really delicious scones! Something about the sweet and tart of the lemon glaze sets them apart and excites the taste buds. Sharing another blueberry treat ~ scones 🙂
Isn’t that a sweet name for a cake? Makes me think of taking one to welcome a new neighbor
This cake has just a handful of ingredients and goes together quickly.It is so moist and bakes in an old-fashioned skillet, heat proof pan or a buttered cake or pie pan.
Lots of flavor comes from vanilla and almond extract as well as lemon zest blended into the sugar with your fingers.
Really delightful!

Jamie and her family drove up to NY to spend a couple of days with her
All of our grandchildren except our oldest, Jared.
Jamie and family got home Saturday night and asked us to join them for Easter morning church service at the Haddonfield Campus. Afterward we headed to their house and shared a bucket of KFC and this bunny cake I made for dessert.
Jill makes it each year for her family now although they prefer it
If Desired: 5 raw eggs, dyed and brought to room temperature (I have found if the eggs are cold, they will not cook completely during the baking time for the bread)
Dough Instructions:
Dough from the bread machine
Cover with an inverted bowl and allow dough to rest 15 minutes
Divide dough into two equal pieces and twist each piece over the other to form braid
Form braid into a ring
Nestle eggs into the doughBaking Directions:
Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes until golden brown. (I usually tent mine with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent over browning.
In addition, you may want to drizzle on a glaze made of 1/2 cup confectioners sugar, 1/2 tsp. melted butter, splash of almond extract and a few grains of salt stirred with a bit of water or orange juice to desired consistency.
Moist, plain and similar to a pound cake. That is the way Dorie describes this delicious Coconut Lemon Bundt Cake. It is flavored with both coconut milk and shredded coconut and the flavor is just right.
