Baked Sunday Mornings: Buttery Pound Cake with Salty Caramel Glaze
But soft, what cake through yonder window smells so tasty? It is Buttery Pound Cake with Salty Caramel Glaze from Baked Occasions— I’m sure Juliet would approve! Pound cake is buttery, dense, rich, and unbeknownst to me until now, best served with a gooey salted caramel lid. The cake is quite good on its own, but ohhhh-so-much-better slathered with caramel. Really, […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Easter Coconut Sheet Cake
Holy coconuts, Batman. I have gotten a hell of a coconut education in the past couple of weeks, thanks in part to this Easter Coconut Sheet Cake from Baked Occasions.

Baked Sunday Mornings: Campfire Cookies
If anyone loves s’mores, it’s THIS GIRL. Any time there’s a s’mores-themed recipe on the Baked Sunday Mornings schedule, I’m gonna be pretty stoked about it, particularly our recent S’more-Style Chocolate Whiskey Pudding— I continue to dream about that incredible mess of chocolate, graham crumbles, and toasted meringue at least twice a week. I also made […]
