Don't laugh at the name of this dessert! OK, you can laugh, it is funny. I have no idea why it's called sex in a pan, maybe because it's so good. I remember a long time ago, before I was married, and used to live on my own, one weekend my friend came over and she introduced me to this dessert. I had no idea what it was, but she promised me I was going to love it so we made it. Oh my God, it was unbelievable ...

I've probably impressed you by now with my baking skills, if not please let me believe I have. Ignorance is bliss after all. :) But if I haven't, I will impress you with this cake. So it's not one of those gloriously decorated cakes that took hours to put together, but for me taste always comes first and this cake definitely has that. This cake was so good it should be banned, notice I said was, as in the p ...

Romanians love their cheese pastries, cheese pies, crepes filled with cheese, and cheese cakes, and I'm no different. Cheesecake is by far my favorite dessert, but this is an interesting cake, it's called a cheesecake but it's not your traditional cheesecake with cream cheese.  This is yet another traditional Romanian recipe that I just love.  It's a very easy cake to make, and the big difference between th ...

My favorite dessert in the whole wide world is cheesecake. I love any type of cheesecake. And I have to say I make a pretty damn good one at that. Normally I make it with cherry topping, but my husband has been asking me to make something with the pomegranates we've had in the fridge for a few days now so I thought they would be perfect for a cheesecake topping. I also used blackberries and raspberries beca ...

On Christmas Eve we had dinner with my sister and her family. It was wonderful, especially seeing my nephew. Food was delicious as always. I was in charge of dessert so I decided to make this gorgeous red velvet sheet cake. I've never made red velvet cake before, only red velvet whoopie pies which were just wonderful. This cake turned out so gorgeous and so elegant looking. I was really impressed, especiall ...

I figured I should do one more cherry dessert before the summer is over and I should end it in style. A cherry sheet cake. I found this recipe on Martha Stewart's website and thought it was a great idea. The main reason I wanted to do something with cherries is because I had about a pound of these gorgeous gigantic cherries left that I got from my sister. Martha's original recipe calls for frozen cherries s ...

Well I've had these strawberries and cherries in the fridge now for a few days and I was saving them for this weekend. I wanted to make a strawberry and cherry cake, well because my husband has been asking for one. And I aim to please. Ok so I love to bake. Anyway, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this cake is a pretty traditional Romanian cake, it's similar to a Strawberry Romanoff Cake. This typ ...

I love cherries! Have I said that before? I probably have, many times in fact. Well since I've been making salads almost every day this week, I decided it was time for some dessert, so what better way to celebrate, then with a gorgeous cherry cobbler. Not that there's any special reason to celebrate, but we don't need a special occasion to enjoy a beautiful cherry cobbler, do we? Since it's just my husband ...

I love summer. So many fruits, so many possibilities for desserts. One of my favorite things to bake in the summer is clafoutis. I have made an apricot clafoutis before, berries, peaches, but my favorite is with cherries. If you've never had a clafoutis, I really recommend you try it. The batter has very little flour, so it ends up like a thick custard, a flan like batter, so it's very light. I love it with ...

Don't let the word Clafoutis scare you off. This dessert is so simple to make, anyone can do it. The beauty of this is that you can make the batter in a blender. Really, it's like making a pancake or crepes batter. Ok, there's one more beauty to this dessert, it has RUM in it. You heard me, RUM!! Don't know about you, but I love rum in my desserts. Clafoutis is a French dessert and traditionally it's made w ...

This is a delicious classic coffee cake with cinnamon, brown sugar and pecan crumble. I love to make this on the weekend, and it's super easy to make.  I love to sit on the deck and just enjoy a nice slice of coffee cake while drinking a good cup of coffee. I also reduce the sugar in this recipe, because I don't like my coffee cake too sweet but feel free to add more if you wish to. You'll need a stick of b ...

Strawberries are one of my favorites and I always look for new recipes that I haven't tried before because I love to experiment. So I've always loved strawberry shortcake but never really tried to make it myself so this was my first time making this cake and I dare say that it turned out great. It was very easy to make and as you can see from the ingredients list, there aren't many. Most of the items you al ...

This cake is wonderful.  My husband was in the mood for something sweet and I wasn't sure what to make, I was thinking something chocolate, like brownies but I had no chocolate on hand so I decided to make this wonderful lemon and orange cake.  It turned out gorgeous and absolutely delicious. [amd-zlrecipe-recipe:109] [gallery link="file" columns="2"] Enjoy! ...

I don't make this cake recipe very often, but when I do it is truly enjoyed and loved by everyone.  It's a super easy cake to make because we start out with a cake mix, so it can't get any easier than this. You can even turn these into little cupcakes that are just gorgeous. [amd-zlrecipe-recipe:100] Enjoy!   ...

I love a good chocolate brownie, especially when I have a sweet tooth.  So does my husband, he always asks me to make him some brownies.  And I always aim to please, I love to bake much more than cooking, so I will gladly bake a brownie over cooking any day. :) So here's an awesome brownie recipe that I think you'll enjoy: [amd-zlrecipe-recipe:98] They are so yummy and trust me if you are having a sweet too ...
