The State fair up here in Minnesota is a serious deal around here. You can get 100's of different dishes and everything under the sun deep fried for your enjoyment. Unfortunately this year we will have to be missing is due to the status of the world and other things. This state-fair funnel cake is a simple little dish that is fun for both and kids to make. The batter is only a few ingredients, almost all are staples in everyone's kitchen and they fry up within minutes. My daughter loves watching them fry and puff up into a fun web design then drenching them in powder sugar and other sweet tasty toppings.
As Easter is this weekend, its only fitting to have a Easter spring time dessert. The classic carrot cake has always been a spring time cake that is filled with a rich brown sugar and spiced cake filled with chopped walnuts and shredded carrots throughout. All topped with a creamy cream cheese frosting.
In these carrot cake swirl bars, it has the classic flavors of a carrot cake, but with a orange infused cheese cake batter swirled throughout the bars. The cheesecake batter gives the flavors of the cream cheese frosting within every bite. They are a perfect addition to any Easter brunch or afternoon snack this spring. 
One of my favorite breakfast items is homemade cinnamon roll, but sometimes you don't have the time to proof the dough and so on for the time consuming task of making them. This cinnamon pecan streusel coffee cake has the taste of a fresh cinnamon roll within fraction of the time. It is also has airy texture like coffee cake is known for.

The cake does take some time to create, however it is worth it at the end.
Looking for a cake that is impressive with amazing flavor, you need to check out this almond swiss cake. The tender sponge cake has a light texture and the mock swiss butter cream is much easier than making the traditional form. The traditional swiss butter cream is made with meringue folded into the buttercream. However with the mock version marshmallow creme is used in place of the meringue making it much simpler to prepare and the results are similar with a soft pillow like frosting
During christmas time, there is the at one thing people either love or hate, Eggnog. I might not be totally on board with drinking it, however I am a huge fan on how it makes this coffee cake delicious. The rich egg flavor helps bring out the flavor and makes a great base for the coffee cake. The cinnamon streusel gives the coffee cake some sweetness then top off with an additional layer of eggnog icing right after baking. It will be a holiday staple for years to come.
The classic pound cake is one of those things ever baker wants to master. the structure of the cake makes it a great foundation to a ton of different varieties once you get a hang of it. Trust me, its not hard to master at all. In this brown sugar and chocolate chip pound cake, the cake is speckled with chocolate chips and topped with a sweet and bitter espresso glaze that goes amazing together. The cake comes out moist, dense, tall and of course delicious.
If there is one baked dessert that defined summer, the peach cobbler would be a strong contender for that spot. The fresh peaches baked into a soft tender cake served with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream is picture perfect on a hot summer night. In this classic peach cobbler, the peaches are tossed in a cinnamon sugar spike with bourbon that really brings out the flavor of the fresh peaches. then the batter wraps around the peaches hiding them in every bite.
During the summer, the last thing you want to do is be baking with a hot oven heating up your house to have a great dessert. These No-Bake White Chocolate Lime Cheesecake Bars are the perfect solution to eliminating that problem with no need for that hot oven. The cheesecake bars come out with a great mixture of sweetness from the white chocolate and tart from the lime juice and zest. These are perfect for the next backyard barbecue or just to enjoy on a hot summer day. The preparation takes about 15-20 minutes then let the bars set up in the refrigerator for couple hours.
As Cinco de Mayo is next week, its a perfect time to make one of most common snacks that is well saturated in the Spanish culture. The churro is a snack that is dough piped into hot oil and cooked quickly, typically in a long coil like shape the served with cinnamon sugar or chocolate for dipping. In these cinnamon dusted mini churros, they are made into short 3-4 inch pieces then tossed quickly in cinnamon sugar. It is a perfect snack for anytime during the day.
