Happy almost Spring everyone! I've been asked a lot lately about my favorite gluten free recipes. I haven't really searched and experimented that much with Gluten Free baking but found this simple recipe that is going on my test list. Just a few ingredients and they do look amazing. I'll report back after I've baked and tasted these little beauties!

Gluten free sugar cookies that are tender, light and not at all grainy or tough. Soft, tender and perfectly sweet as is.

thinking about a few special recipes for the holidays, I came across this one for baked vanilla donuts. It looks delicious--without the sprinkles though--and I am going to make some test batches this weekend. I'll report back to let you know if the recipe is a winner!

I wanted a muffin for breakfast a few days ago and found an incredible cream cheese raspberry muffin in our company cafe. It was so delicious I went searching for a recipe. This one is going on my weekend list for Sunday Brunch. Maybe I'll make extras and freeze them for the holidays. Happy Baking!

Quick banana soft serve ice cream. Chop up quite 3 ripe bananas in small pieces, put in freezer container/bag (squeeze out as much air as possible if bag), freeze for at least 24 hours. Put into your food processor with 2 Tbl milk or half & half, and let it run for 4-5 minutes (stop and hand mix if necessary during the first couple of minutes). Once smooth, put into single serve dishes and freeze for a few minutes if too thin. I add a couple of tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder for chocolate soft serve! Delicious and takes care of the sweet craving for regular soft serve ice cream!

Ok, it's hot! I'm just sayin' the temperature here in NC can't get any hotter! So, turning on my oven is NOT going to happen. Tonight or tomorrow evening I am going to make Home Made Vanilla Bean Ice Cream! No cone but with some of my fresh, lovely vanilla beans!

With a never-ending stash of homemade ice pops in our freezer, I’m winning the mom of the year award this summer. They’re absolutely the perfect treat for the kids - easy to make, easy to eat and 100% fruit. But they’re nothing compared to homemade vanilla bean ice cream. When I close my eyes andCli...

My favorite pound cake recipe...note, I use a tablespoon of vanilla in mine for a deeper vanilla flavor. Make sure NOT to overbake!
