Gluten-free Devil’s Food Cake with Mocha Buttercream
Who doesn’t love chocolate cake?? OK, I know there are a few of you, but I would venture to say, you are the minority. I know I love chocolate cake, any kind of chocolate cake, especially if it is covered in frosting. This moist, rich Devil’s Food Cake fit the bill perfectly. My husband [...]
Gluten-free Oatmeal Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies
I’ve never had the privilege to support the Girl Scouts by buying their cookies, but I believe that these Oatmeal Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies are similar to their Do-Si-Dos™, only homemade (which always means better) and gluten-free. These chewy oatmeal peanut butter cookies are sandwiched together with a fluffy, peanut buttery frosting. I know I [...]
Gluten-free Strawberry Rhubarb Upside Down Cake
It is definitely springtime when the rhubarb’s thin, tender stalks are ready to cut & use. This upside down cake combines rhubarb with moist, sweet strawberries, which bake up into a beautiful sauce under a moist cake with a hint of lemon. Once it has baked, you turn the cake out of the pan, putting [...]

Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Cinnamon Bun Cake
I know many people with Celiac disease, or those with a gluten intolerant, miss the taste of cinnamon buns. Although I do have a fantastic gluten-free cinnamon bun recipe, sometimes you just don’t want to take the time and effort that it takes to bake a batch. If that’s you, don’t fret, you can still [...]
Gluten-free "Six Layer Dessert"
Now, I know many of you are familiar with this controversial dessert. It’s the dessert that made you snicker as a child, and well, even as an adult. It goes by many names, some of which are “The next best thing to Robert Redford” (I think that one must be outdated already, since there are [...]
Help Me Celebrate with Gluten-Free Birthday Cake
It’s that time of year again! I am turning another year older next weekend. I will no longer be in my ‘early 30′s, and I am still too young to be in my ‘late 30′s’. I am now smack-dab in the middle. Hmm…so this is what 16-year-old-me thought was old?? Boy, was I ever foolish. [...]
