Chocolate Chunk Muffins




Hey! Where's the chocolate chunks? I sliced one of these babies open and no chunks! I sliced two of 'em and nothing. I feel like Yukon Cornelius. Every time who threw his pick in the snow and licked it...Nothing! Phooey! These muffins were light, moist and fluffy. I'd love to make them again with some more chocolate chunks. Thanks to Bridget of The Way The Cookie Crumbles for the chocolately pick!

Sour Cream Chocolate Cake Cookies



OK.... Not my favorite. I made em... I tasted em... I'll give em away... I didn't bake up all the batter. I think I'll add some nuts like Tia did... and taste em again... A solid recipe. See Spike's site for the recipe.

Date Nut Bread



Hello! A little late but none the less, done. I just couldn't wait one night, one day to slice this bread! Upon tasting it, I now wish that I had slice up whole dates. I used chopped dates, which were very soft but a bigger date would've been grand. This was easy to whip up, so I'll have to try again. I made three small loaves from half a recipe. Not too shabby! Thanks to Mary of Popsicles and Sandy Feet for a yummy bread!

Blueberry Brown Sugar Plain Cake







So, it looks like a lot of folks found the egg whites to be a thorn in their side. On this hot summer day, even with air conditioning, I'm not sure what wouldn't be a little irritating! I have yet to taste this little guy but the blueberries sound like a real winner. I hope the cinnamon does a nice job in complementing the brown sugar and berries. I didn't have the size pan required so I used my 9 inch square. Interested to see how many folks had a 11x7.... Wanted to show a pic of the bottom of my cake, yup blueberries down there!!! Overall, this was a nice light and tasty cake! Thanks to Cindy of Everyday Insanity for finding a timely pick! This was very enjoyable right out of the oven!

Maple Cornmeal Biscuits




El-Yumo! Loved these, and so easy to put together. Love the sweetness from the maple syrup. I sliced a few up and spread some raspberry jam on. Really, really good! I used a tablespoon to measure out the biscuits but still ended up with over 24..... hmm... Thanks to Lindsay of A Little Something... Sweet for a yummy treat!

Brown Sugar Bundt Cake









This was pretty quick and easy to put together. I say that only because it's not often that I don't get start crackin eggs til after 9 p.m. So, with that being said I should have a cake out of the oven by 11 p.m. I chose to go with a red pear and craisins tonight. I'm not big on raisins and didn't have any prunes on hand although, I'm sure the prunes would've been lovely. I can't wait to taste this cake! I tasted the batter a few times and the brown sugar was nice and smooth. Thanks to Peggy of Pantry Revisited. Everyone who baked this cake seemed to absolutely love it. Can't wait to try it!!!!



Well, as you can see.... It stuck a little, and yes, I grabbed a fork and started picking at those little pieces and gobbled them up!

Basic Marble Loaf Cake



Well, after I saw that someone halved their recipe and made muffins, I decided to try that too! I actually used my mini muffin pan and those little babies baked up real fast....too fast. So, their a little over baked but still tasty! I made the orange version and suprisingly like them more than I thought I would. Hope everyone had fun making these! Thanks to Carol of The Bake More for a fun, quick, easy, tasty treat!
