Pumpkin and Vanilla Layered Cheesecake

January 1, 2012 0 comments

The holidays just aren’t the same without stuffing yourself with decadent desserts.  This pumpkin layered cheesecake is thick, rich and creamy.  I was nicely surprised to see just how thick a cheesecake this recipe made.  It came to just below the top rim of my springform pan. With the pumpkin cheesecake layer between two layers of regular vanilla cheesecake, you get a nice hint of pumpkin spice without it feeling too much like a fall [...]

Pumpkin Walnut Spice Bread

November 7, 2011 2 comments

I simply love this pumpkin spice bread recipe!  It has the perfect blend of spices and is so moist.  I’m a huge fan of a good banana nut bread but I’d say this pumpkin walnut bread knocks that out of first place. The original recipe doesn’t call for nuts but I decided to add a small amount of walnuts to half of the recipe.  The recipe makes two loaves so I made one with walnuts [...]

Pumpkin Chiffon Cake

Sometimes printed recipes can be so hard to follow.  The steps aren’t clearly assembled and not how I’m used to organizing the instructions.  I know it’s my fault though.  I need to slow myself down and take a few minutes to read the recipe completely before I start.  But I get so excited that I admit, sometimes I don’t do that. Why am I blubbering on about this?  Because this lovely pumpkin chiffon cake fell [...]

Super Soft Pumpkin Cookies

The weather here turned a little chilly this week and it got me in the mood for something pumpkin.  Really anything would do but these soft pumpkin cookies really caught my attention. These amazing cookies are delicious!  You will not believe how soft and moist they are.  So much so that they stick together if you stack them up.  The original recipe called for a simple glaze icing but once I tasted them, I think [...]

Pumpkin Tart With Graham Cracker Crust

Whew, that was a long Thanksgiving weekend of eating!  I’m stuffed to the gills and eager for a few weeks break until Christmas.  We had the in-laws over for Thanksgiving dinner and I took the opportunity to try out a pumpkin tart.  I usually don’t make these kinds of desserts because hubby won’t eat them and I can’t eat a whole pie by myself.  Well…I could but I really shouldn’t!! This pumpkin tart is to [...]

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffin Tops

As you can see, I’m still pumpkin crazy here!  This time around I made some moist pumpkin muffin tops with chocolate chips added in. I can’t believe Halloween is just around the corner.  Where is this year going so fast?!  This weekend I’ve gotta spend some time preparing for Trick or Treat night…not that I know when it is or anything. Our neighborhood is so screwy when it comes to Trick or Treat.  We don’t [...]
