Pumpkin BTS Cake
Note: This is a throw-back post, but so popular that everyone needs to see it again. Enjoy! So, I don’t really care what you call this cake. Anytime you combine pumpkin, homemade whipped cream and caramel sauce? Uh-MAZE-ZA-ZING. My last BTS cake has driven almost 1,200,000 visitors to Lemon Sugar, and is among one of my most requested desserts in my inner circle. Inner circle? That means my family. I don’t know why I called them my inner circle. I’m clearly not Miley Cyrus. I…

Pumpkin Crumb Cake: A Throwback
Hi everyone! Starting today (!) I am going to use Thursdays to bring back some of my favorites from the archives from Lemon Sugar. This Pumpkin Crumb Cake is still a favorite of ours, and I haven’t tweaked the recipe a bit. Do yourself a favor and make this, STAT! Enjoy! ♥ So yeah, this is another pumpkin cake. And yeah, I thought I had sworn off pumpkin recipes for at least a week or two, but as it turns out I was pretty…

Butternut Squash & Potato Gratin
I am a Thanksgiving traditionalist. I want the same dishes on my Thanksgiving table, year after year. And for me, it’s not even about the turkey – it’s about the sides. Mashed potatoes, gravy, homemade noodles, dressing (not stuffing), homemade rolls, sweet potatoes, real cranberries, my Grandma’s salad, green bean casserole and, if we have time, scalloped corn. I know there are tons of fabulous recipes out there and amazing Thanksgiving dishes that would make a great addition to my table, but dang it, our…

Chocolate Pumpkin Cheesecake Cake
I totally bought an electric throw blanket last weekend. I am SO dreading the cold weather that I actually took my 30-something year old tushie to Target and bought an electric blanket. It’s like I woke up and was like, “How can I be MORE like my mother today?” Sorry, Mom. I dread the winter. I love the holidays, but I dread the cold, the wind, the leaf-less trees and dormant grass. I hate always being cold. I don’t like high heating bills and the…

Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll Cake
Helloooooo! Happy fall! Ok, I know it’s not “technically” fall yet, but it was so beautifully autumn-like today that I think it’s time to take the leap. It’s time to close up the pool, plant mums and start buying cans of pumpkin by the case. I usually try to wait until after my birthday (in mid-September) before I whip out the pumpkin recipes, but the chill in the air this morning just put me in the mood! This felt like a perfect transition recipe…

Pumpkin BTS Cake
So, I don’t really care what you call this cake. Anytime you combine pumpkin, homemade whipped cream and caramel sauce? Uh-MAZE-balls. My last BTS cake has driven almost 120,000 visitors to Lemon Sugar, and is among one of my most requested desserts in my inner circle. Inner circle? That means my family. I don’t know why I called them my inner circle. I’m clearly not Miley Cyrus. I don’t have an “inner circle.” But if I did, I would totally feed them BTS cake. If…

Pumpkin Nutella Swirl Cake
Hi everyone! I soooooooo miss you guys! My life is in perpetual “just-get-by” mode and right now I’m feeling lucky to get all four of us out the door in the morning fully clothed, fed and headed in the right direction so I’m calling that a win. Life is nutsos. That being said, I love my new job and I’m hoping that soon we can figure out our new normal around here. I think we’re getting better at it every day, so in a few…

Pumpkin Crumb Cake
So yeah, this is another pumpkin cake. And yeah, I thought I had sworn off pumpkin recipes for at least a week or two, but as it turns out I was pretty much completely wrong. Pumpkin does that to you. It has magical powers. Did you know I met someone last week who said they didn’t like pumpkin? And I was like, “REALLY?!?!?” And they were like, well, I’ve never really tried it. And then I was like, “Oh.” And then there was an awkward…

Pumpkin Cupcakes & Homemade Pumpkin Candies
Because I said so, that’s why. That’s why I made pumpkin cupcakes, with cream cheese frosting and handmade candy pumpkins on top. Because I said so. That’s why.

Apple Pie Cookies
Seriously. What is not to love here? I had some leftover pie crust from my {Spinach & Gruyere Quiche} and lots of apples in my fruit bowl, so these happened. I am so, so glad that these happened. They happened at the end of a yucky, stressful day and made the world all sunshine-y and apple pie-y again. Perfect.
