Jamaican Pound Cake
This Jamaican Pound Cake is an old recipe I found in my mother-in-law's cupboard. It's made from a boxed pound cake mix with the addition of rum, bananas, sour cream and almonds. It's super simple and so good!

Lemon & Earl Grey Tart with Buttermilk Chantilly
This tart’s beautiful color, texture, and flavor is what intrigued me enough to make up for the lengthy, labor-intensive process. Originating in France, this dessert is one of those where you will have to measure everything, and I mean everything, with a scale. After an entire afternoon in the kitchen, this whole process comes to light once the deliciously sweet raspberry puree is drizzled over a light and fluffy buttermilk Chantilly. If you have ventured this far, I promise you will have the fruits of your labor to enjoy and a very impressive display, indeed.

Cranberry Upside-Down Cake
You've got to try this Cranberry Upside-Down Cake. It's simple and deliciously tangy. Great for the holidays or any time of the year. I pairs well with sweetened whipped cream. The topping is made by simply baking cranberries placed in a layer over sugar and spices at the bottom of the pan. As the cake bakes, the sugar caramelizes, forming a rich syrup.

Gingerbread Cake
Not being much of a baker, I get very excited when I stumble upon a new and easy - even I can make it - recipe. This Gingerbread Cake is delicious and the lemony whipped cream is TOO DIE FOR! You could use this whipped cream on berries or anything really. This is a must try!

Cider and Five-Spice Bundt Cake with Smoked Salted Caramel Sauce
This seasonal Cider and 5 Spice Bundt Cake is light and refreshingly subtle in its Christmas-y flavors; a perfect end to a heavy holiday meal. A natural ginger spiciness is laced throughout this fluffy and moist cake, cutting the sweetness of molasses. It is, however, the salted caramel sauce drizzled on top that brings this light and airy cake to life.

Spaghetti Pie
Spaghetti Pie is an old family favorite of our friend Carol Stephens—sadly now gone but NOT forgotten—who served this to her large family in their farmhouse in the English countryside. It is traditionally cooked in a casserole dish (we always use a large soufflé dish) and served with ketchup, as there is no tomato sauce in this—it is spaghetti, minced beef, onions, parsley and cheese bound together with milk and egg (a twist of nutmeg is a must, and a bit of garlic and sautéed mushrooms are great in it, too. Cooking it in a bundt pan and cutting slices of it is a great improvement (we hope Carol would think so!).
