These carrot cake cookies are one of my favorite cookies, even if they are made with vegetables. Just like my carrot cake cheesecake, I think a lot of my love for them has to do with the cream cheese frosting piled on top!

I've received lots of requests for a raspberry cheesecake after sharing my other berry cheesecake recipes. I'm so excited to be sharing this one with you today! Today's recipe is a bit different from my other berry cheesecakes though; unlike my blueberry cheesecake, using whole raspberries didn’t work so well here. Instead, we'll make a homemade raspberry sauce (similar to my raspberry sauce) for a concentrated bright, tart contrast to the sweet and creamy, dense cheesecake.

I never thought I'd be so excited to share cookies covered in worms, but I guess that's just what happens when you're a boy mom 🤷‍♀️ These dirt cookies are inspired by the dirt pudding cups my mom used to make when I was a kid. They are quite tasty, so much fun, and my boys absolutely love them! /p>]]> https://sugarspunrun.com/dirt-cookies/feed/ 4 https://sugarspunrun.com/hummingbird-cake-recipe/ https://sugarspunrun.com/hummingbird-cake-recipe/#comments Tue, 12 Mar 2024 12:00:00 +0000 https://sugarspunrun.com/?p=16042 I'm not sure that I've ever had a cake quite as packed with flavor as this Hummingbird Cake is. The perfect springtime cake, this recipe is flavored with ripe bananas, crushed pineapple, ground cinnamon, butter, vanilla, and pecans, then iced with a thick layer of cream cheese frosting. It really doesn't get any better than this.



Have you ever heard of Hummingbird Cake?]]> https://sugarspunrun.com/hummingbird-cake-recipe/feed/ 102 https://sugarspunrun.com/sour-cream-coffee-cake/ https://sugarspunrun.com/sour-cream-coffee-cake/#comments Mon, 11 Mar 2024 12:00:00 +0000 https://sugarspunrun.com/?p=59732 Sour cream coffee cake is a moist, tender, and flavorful snack cake. My recipe has been carefully fine-tuned to perfection and includes both a cinnamon sugar ripple and a sweet crumb topping, and it's easy enough for beginners! Recipe includes a how-to video!

A variation of my classic coffee cake, this sour cream coffee cake uses sour cream for a moist, tender crumb and great depth of flavor. It's sweetened with a cinnamon sugar ripple and a decadent (but easy) streusel topping. The vanilla glaze on top is optional, but you already know how I feel about a little extra sugar 😉

If mint chocolate chip is your go-to ice cream flavor, you are going to absolutely LOVE this mint chocolate cake! It starts with rich, moist, fudgy chocolate cake layers and is finished with a light and refreshing mint buttercream. It's a bit different from the usual peanut butter chocolate cake or German chocolate cake, and I just love it!

If you're a fan of Rice Krispie treats but want to switch things up a bit, try Lucky Charms treats! Soft, gooey, and so colorful, these cereal bars are as fun to eat as they are to make. Only 5 ingredients, 15 minutes from start to finish, and no oven required!

If you've ever seen the popular Seinfeld episode featuring chocolate babka, you know that nothing (not even cinnamon babka!) tops this coveted, chocolate rippled treat. Sweet, tender and perfectly enriched with eggs, sugar, and butter, this bread is worth all the hype--it's completely irresistible!

If you're looking for a pretty green dessert to make for St. Patrick's Day, look no further! Not only are these mint chocolate cookies a soft shade of mint green (like a Shamrock Shake!), they are also incredibly tasty.

Chewy oats, melty chocolate, crisp candy...these monster cookies have it all. They're like a cross between my peanut butter cookies, oatmeal cookies, and M&M cookies, and they tend to be a crowd favorite wherever I bring them. Plus, they are simple to make and so much fun to eat!

I'm back with another fun variation of classic snickerdoodles! These brown butter snickerdoodles are thick, soft, melt-in-your mouth cookies that are absolutely loaded with flavor.

I've shared quite a few pound cake recipes here on the blog, but today's cream cheese pound cake might just be my favorite. While it looks modest, it's a nice heavy (but not too heavy!) cake that is anything but plain. The cream cheese adds great depth of flavor and makes the cake so tender.

A classic French dessert, chocolate pot de creme has a rich, silky smooth texture and luxurious taste. I like to think of it as the chocolatey, un-bruleed cousin to creme brulee.

Birthday desserts too cliche for you? How about a birthday breakfast instead? This super fun and festive birthday crumb cake has been the birthday breakfast of choice in my household as of late, and I think your family will love it just as much!

Some days, you just need a good chocolate cookie, and for that I have plenty of options: double chocolate chip cookies, brownie cookies, and even flourless chocolate cookies will all do the trick. Then there are days when you need a chocolate cookie that's so rich, so indulgent it should come with a warning...and that's when these chocolate lava cookies do their best work.

Today I'm resharing my classic vanilla cupcake recipe with an updated frosting (the winning core recipe remains unchanged--it was perfect as written!). My favorite chocolate frosting still pairs just as nicely, but I'm changing things up with a vanilla bean buttercream today. I can't wait to hear what you think!

Resharing an old favorite today! This classic chocolate cake is one of my all-time favorite cakes on the blog. In fact, it's one of my proudest creations on the blog to-date, and I even used it as the base for my German chocolate cake and my Ding Dong cake. Today, I'm bringing it back with more notes and helpful tips, but the recipe remains unchanged (because there's no need to mess with perfection!).

This rich, chocolatey, homemade chocolate pudding is much more sophisticated than anything from a box mix or plastic pudding cup. It's inspired by the filling in my chocolate pie recipe, and the flavor is so rich and satisfying (and you can make it even richer and darker by using a higher percentage cocoa chocolate bar!).

If you're scrambling for a last-minute gift this holiday season, make candied almonds! Chances are, you already have all (or most) of the ingredients on hand already, and everyone who tries them loves them!

Today I'm transforming classic peppermint bark candy into a fun and festive holiday cake! This peppermint bark cake is a stunner and sure to be the star of your Christmas dessert table. The base is the same richly fudgy and chocolatey cake from my triple chocolate cake recipe, which we'll top with a peppermint-infused white chocolate frosting (a favorite of mine!). We'll cloak the whole thing in a dark chocolate ganache, and then pipe peppermint swirls to finish.

The Best Oatmeal Cookies

These orange cookies are so much fun! They have a bright and fresh orange flavor that especially comes from the frosting, so don’t skip it. I also add some cream cheese to the frosting, which really complements the orange flavor (just like the frosting on my orange rolls!).

I've received so many requests for a bread pudding recipe, and I'm thrilled to be sharing my version just in time for Christmas! Made with enriched bread soaked in a sweet custard, this is a timeless and classic dessert, and for good reason. It's easy, deeply flavored, and incredibly comforting. It's a cozy hug of a dessert!

If you are looking for a Christmas cake without any peppermint or gingerbread, you simply must try my cranberry cake! It's flavored with pops of tart cranberries and a splash of both almond and vanilla extract. It's festive, but also fresh and so unique!
