I think plums are an underappreciated fruit, and when they come on sale, I love to make this blue plum crumble dessert recipe. I’m totally in love with all crumble desserts, like my blackberry crumble! I love them so much that I have a goal to create a crumble recipe with every single fruit. Blue plums can be eaten raw, but the fruit is quite tart (and sometimes bitter). But when cooked, especially in a dessert recipe like this one, they get anupgrade that bakes that bitter flavor right out.

The Secret To A Perfect Chocolate Raspberry Pavlova Recipe
Pavlova is an Australian meringue desert. This one is a chocolate raspberry pavlova recipe that is topped with fresh cream and chocolate shavings. I’ll admit that I am not the best meringue baker, but I took some liberties to make it easy peasy. I love the addition of the chocolate to the meringue. I am also in love with all berries. Raspberries are no exception! The secret to making this pavlova is to make sure it has no moisture while baking. That’s why spring is the time to bake a pavlova.

I love Reese’s, but candy prices are through the roof! Here are some homemade Reese’s peanut butter “cups” for you to make. They are so good, and the best part is that you can use whatever ingredients you want without all of that yucky preservatives.

If you’re feeling adventurous, why not some sea salt sprinkled on top, or maybe crispy rice cereal? Or even caramel!
Beautiful Green Rainbow Cake Recipe for St. Patrick’s Day
The luck of the Irish is in every bite of this St. Patrick’s Day green rainbow cake. It’s bright, happy colors are just the thing to bring some shamrock and gold to the end of the rainbow. I made four layers, but you can make as many (or as little) as you want. You can also change out the colors, if you want an actual rainbow. Below, I included a mascarpone cheese substitution, too, if you can’t find it. The cake itself is a simple vanilla cake, but not overpoweringly so.

Perfect Cheesecake Without A Graham Cracker Crust Recipe
I created this recipe for a cheesecake without a graham cracker crust because I prefer not to use the graham crust. The store-bought variety is designed for pies and cannot contain all the cheesecake filling. Instead, I opted for a straightforward flour base, which provided a more traditional texture and was easier for me to prepare. The flour crust also ensures a sturdy foundation for the dense cheesecake layer, preventing any leaks or collapses. You can prebake the crust for a crispier edge.

Perfect for those seeking a decadent treat without the hassle of baking, these truffles are easy to prepare and offer a customizable experience with various coatings.

Moist Banana Bread Muffins (An Easy Recipe!)
Ripe bananas be gone! Today, I’m going to make some moist banana bread muffins for a quick and easy treat to use up as all those ripe bananas that I always have lying around. Part of the reason that I have so many banana recipes on this site. The recipe balances the natural sweetness of bananas with a hint of cinnamon, and the addition of chocolate chips creates a rich, indulgent treat. I love to grab a yummy muffin when I’m dashing out the door to work or enjoying as mid-day snack.
How to Make Peach Galette with This Easy Recipe
I love peaches, which are typically in season late June through August. This easy recipe will show you how to make peach galette with that bounty.

Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cake with Bananas Recipe
Do you like peanut butter and banana sandwiches? That’s why I also love this chocolate and peanut butter cake with bananas. Peanut butter and banana sandwiches remind me of fond childhood memories when I ate them every single day. Even better with some chocolate to go with them. You have all of those wonderful flavors melded into one layered cake. This cake is simple to make, too, because I used wafers (I used vanilla) soaked in milk instead of making a graham cracker crust.
