I've received lots of requests for a raspberry cheesecake after sharing my other berry cheesecake recipes. I'm so excited to be sharing this one with you today! Today's recipe is a bit different from my other berry cheesecakes though; unlike my blueberry cheesecake, using whole raspberries didn’t work so well here. Instead, we'll make a homemade raspberry sauce (similar to my raspberry sauce) for a concentrated bright, tart contrast to the sweet and creamy, dense cheesecake.

I never thought I'd be so excited to share cookies covered in worms, but I guess that's just what happens when you're a boy mom 🤷‍♀️ These dirt cookies are inspired by the dirt pudding cups my mom used to make when I was a kid. They are quite tasty, so much fun, and my boys absolutely love them! /p>]]> https://sugarspunrun.com/dirt-cookies/feed/ 2 https://sugarspunrun.com/hummingbird-cake-recipe/ https://sugarspunrun.com/hummingbird-cake-recipe/#comments Tue, 12 Mar 2024 12:00:00 +0000 https://sugarspunrun.com/?p=16042 I'm not sure that I've ever had a cake quite as packed with flavor as this Hummingbird Cake is. The perfect springtime cake, this recipe is flavored with ripe bananas, crushed pineapple, ground cinnamon, butter, vanilla, and pecans, then iced with a thick layer of cream cheese frosting. It really doesn't get any better than this.



Have you ever heard of Hummingbird Cake?]]> https://sugarspunrun.com/hummingbird-cake-recipe/feed/ 102 https://sugarspunrun.com/sour-cream-coffee-cake/ https://sugarspunrun.com/sour-cream-coffee-cake/#comments Mon, 11 Mar 2024 12:00:00 +0000 https://sugarspunrun.com/?p=59732 Sour cream coffee cake is a moist, tender, and flavorful snack cake. My recipe has been carefully fine-tuned to perfection and includes both a cinnamon sugar ripple and a sweet crumb topping, and it's easy enough for beginners! Recipe includes a how-to video!

A variation of my classic coffee cake, this sour cream coffee cake uses sour cream for a moist, tender crumb and great depth of flavor. It's sweetened with a cinnamon sugar ripple and a decadent (but easy) streusel topping. The vanilla glaze on top is optional, but you already know how I feel about a little extra sugar 😉

If mint chocolate chip is your go-to ice cream flavor, you are going to absolutely LOVE this mint chocolate cake! It starts with rich, moist, fudgy chocolate cake layers and is finished with a light and refreshing mint buttercream. It's a bit different from the usual peanut butter chocolate cake or German chocolate cake, and I just love it!

If you're a fan of Rice Krispie treats but want to switch things up a bit, try Lucky Charms treats! Soft, gooey, and so colorful, these cereal bars are as fun to eat as they are to make. Only 5 ingredients, 15 minutes from start to finish, and no oven required!

If you've ever seen the popular Seinfeld episode featuring chocolate babka, you know that nothing (not even cinnamon babka!) tops this coveted, chocolate rippled treat. Sweet, tender and perfectly enriched with eggs, sugar, and butter, this bread is worth all the hype--it's completely irresistible!

If you're looking for a pretty green dessert to make for St. Patrick's Day, look no further! Not only are these mint chocolate cookies a soft shade of mint green (like a Shamrock Shake!), they are also incredibly tasty.

French onion chicken may not be the neatest or prettiest dish on the blog (most comfort food isn't), but it is absolutely PACKED with flavor! If you're a fan of French onion soup, you're going to love this one.

Chewy oats, melty chocolate, crisp candy...these monster cookies have it all. They're like a cross between my peanut butter cookies, oatmeal cookies, and M&M cookies, and they tend to be a crowd favorite wherever I bring them. Plus, they are simple to make and so much fun to eat!

I’m extremely particular about my cream of crab soup. It’s a favorite of mine and easy to find here in Maryland but, frustratingly, too many places don’t do a good job with such a simple recipe. My recipe tackles some of my biggest pet peeves with this classic soup.

I'm back with another fun variation of classic snickerdoodles! These brown butter snickerdoodles are thick, soft, melt-in-your mouth cookies that are absolutely loaded with flavor.

If you're looking for something a bit different from your average buttermilk pancakes, you need to try these banana pancakes! They taste just like banana bread in pancake form, and they’re so fluffy and soft. I love them!/p>]]> https://sugarspunrun.com/banana-pancakes/feed/ 2 https://sugarspunrun.com/cream-cheese-pound-cake/ https://sugarspunrun.com/cream-cheese-pound-cake/#comments Thu, 15 Feb 2024 13:00:00 +0000 https://sugarspunrun.com/?p=59244 My cream cheese pound cake is perfectly dense and never dry. We'll bake it low and slow for moist, tender results. One of my favorites! Recipe includes a how-to video!

I've shared quite a few pound cake recipes here on the blog, but today's cream cheese pound cake might just be my favorite. While it looks modest, it's a nice heavy (but not too heavy!) cake that is anything but plain. The cream cheese adds great depth of flavor and makes the cake so tender.

I shared this alfredo sauce in my fettuccine alfredo post last year, and it was a smash hit. Today I'm sharing that same sauce but in a standalone recipe, just in case you don't feel like serving it over pasta. It's easy, creamy, velvety smooth, and even though it's not truly authentic, this alfredo is still amazing!

What sets my chocolate pancake recipe apart from many others is that it has a distinct chocolate taste without the need for a ganache topping, though you could certainly add one. It works amazingly paired with whipped cream and berries (I suggest you save your maple syrup for pumpkin pancakes!), but really, these pancakes taste amazing on their own too!

Dill dip is one of my party-food staples! It's a classic hit right along with my buffalo chicken dip and taco dip. Unlike those other though, this dip takes just minutes to make from start to finish. It's perfect for last-minute plans!

A classic French dessert, chocolate pot de creme has a rich, silky smooth texture and luxurious taste. I like to think of it as the chocolatey, un-bruleed cousin to creme brulee.

There are few recipes on this blog of mine that I can take as little credit for as this popover recipe. This is really my mom's recipe, adapted from half a dozen others, cobbled together from pages of family-favorite cookbooks and from simple recipes printed on the backs of her popover tin labels.

While I already have a rich, decadent hot chocolate recipe on the blog, it's not necessarily a quick treat. It’s the ultimate hot chocolate if you ask me, but it's also slightly fussier than ripping open a packet and pouring it in some hot water. Some days I want something that's just a little bit less complicated, but still chocolatey and flavorful. This hot cocoa recipe is my solution!

Inspired by my mega-popular classic biscuit recipe, these sourdough biscuits are some of the most flavorful, tender, buttery biscuits I’ve ever had in my life! They come together quickly with either sourdough discard (or active starter, if you prefer) and taste utterly amazing. Just look at those tall, flaky layers!

Gosh, I love this potato leek soup. It's lighter, but still cozy, satisfying, traditional, and just so purely, simply, good. It's also super straightforward to make too, which means you'll have time to whip up a batch of garlic cheese drop biscuits for serving on the side 😏

It's been quite a long time since I've shared a savory recipe! After lots of Christmas cookies and festive desserts last month, this pink sauce pasta is the *perfect* recipe to get us back into the swing of things. It makes such a cozy meal for winter!
