Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Pound Cake with Whipped Chocolate Ganache

I don’t know what it is, but when I travel for a weekend, I always have a million different bags.  Maybe I just should take 1 big bag and call it a day?  I just try so hard to be an efficient and minimalist traveler (ha!). What if I want to workout?  Sneakers.  Are we [...]

What’s Happening Lately at Keep It Sweet Desserts

It is a good thing we took our vacation at the end of February, because I don’t think I’ve stopped running around since we are back.  March was a busy month and April is showing signs of the same.  While it is completely exhausting, and I would love a day off for a haircut and [...]

(Real) Pistachio Cupcakes with Brown Sugar Buttercream

Apple Cinnamon Crumb Cake

Every time I think I can predict the ebbs and flows of my new business I’m absolutely wrong.  But you know what, I’ve never been so happy to be wrong. I really thought that as soon as I got all of my Mother’s Day orders out early this week, things would slow down and I’d [...]

When Erin emailed me about participating in Caroline’s virtual baby shower I could not say yes fast enough. Caroline is one of my favorite bloggers and I’ve loved seeing her excitement about the soon-to-come baby over the last several months.

Magic Cake Bars for Easter

For the record, Matt wanted me to take a picture of my hand over the cake and pretend it was the hand of our little niece or nephew helping in the kitchen. 1) We don’t have any nieces or nephews 2) No one wants to see my hands after twelve hour days in the kitchen [...]

Birthday Brunch

A couple of weeks ago we celebrated my mother-in-law’s 60th birthday with a brunch party. Marcia decided that for her birthday, she wanted to thank all her friends and family for being a part of her life.  She even asked that no one get her a gift but donate to a family charity instead. Brunch [...]
