Chocolate Raspberry Cupcakes & A Bridal Shower
Last weekend my sisters and I hosted a bridal shower for my soon-to-be sister-in-law, Abbey. Since it was a late afternoon, Sunday shower with impending bad weather, we kept the menu light and desserts simple. The theme was “From Miss to Mrs” and it turned out to be an adorable celebration!

Brownie Tart with White Chocolate Biscoff Ganache + giveaway
A week or so ago, I received a promotional shipment from Biscoff…a CASE of their cookie spread! After I got my face out of the first jar of it – I mean seriously, it’s amazing, on a spoon, right out of the jar – I decided I really needed to figure out how to bake with it, and STAT. Otherwise, my diet for the week was looking bleak.

Be My Valentine Cupcakes
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, in case you didn’t get the memo. If you’re like me, you’re probably procrastinating and pretending like you don’t have to finish your kid’s Valentine’s cards tonight before bed. You’re probably ignoring the fact that you have to make cupcakes for a class party tomorrow, too.

King Cake, Filled Two Ways
I’m feeling very out-of-sorts and distracted today. We’re in the middle of a very busy week, mostly the fault of my first grader. Between after-school basketball camp, dance class, gymnastics and a dance-clinic performance, our evenings are shot. Oh, dinner you say? What’s that? Laundry? How many times can you wear a pair of jeans before they’re truly dirty?

Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Butter Cream
It was a year ago today that I first made this cake. Well, not this cake exactly – I can’t remember the exact flavor combination, but it was a big, heavy three-layer cake with fluffy frosting and glitter sprinkles everywhere.

Chocolate Chip Scones
Many years ago, my husband (then boyfriend) went to London with his family. I stayed home in Kansas and sulked for ten days…not just because I missed him, but also because he was going to London, without me.

Peanut Butter & Oreo Stuffed Brownie Cupcakes
I don’t even know what to say about this one except that this is what happens when I ask my brother what he wants for his birthday dessert. First, he says he has to think about it, and then I get a random text at 3pm one day that says “I saw a peanut butter Oreo brownie thing on the internet. Make it happen.”

The Greatest Waffle Recipe Ever
I’m kind of not kidding. Although I didn’t name these waffles, they are honestly the best I’ve ever had. Not that I’m a big waffle aficionado or anything, but I spent a lot of time looking for the perfect waffle recipe after we got married. We received a really nice waffle iron as a gift, and I was determined to find a really nice recipe to go with it.

Fauxstess Cupcakes
I can’t even count how many times I’ve made these cupcakes. These were one of the very first blog posts on Lemon Sugar, back when I was taking pictures with my iPhone and just doing a little baking for my family and friends. I had no idea how much I would grow to love blogging about and taking pictures of food. In fact, 5 years ago, I probably would not have believed you if you told me I’d have a food blog, a fancy camera with…
