key lime pie

Key Lime Pie

Spring is here and I can't think of a better dessert to have then a tart Key Lime Pie. The graham cracker crust is filled with a silky, creamy lime filling that is bright and fresh. The lime zest incorporated into the filling and sprinkled on top of the pie adds an extra pop of flavor, color and fresh lime aroma. The pie is topped with sweeten whipped cream to help cut the tartness. I think this pie is great for a beautiful spring brunch and would be great for Easter. I plan on making this recipe through the summer months. It's easy to make; the hard part is waiting for the pie to chill and set up before you devour it!

Blueberry Almond Biscotti

Blueberry Almond Biscotti is so easy to make and they require very few ingredients. Many of the ingredients are regular things that you will find in your pantry, such as butter, flour, sugar, eggs, baking powder, extract and some sort of dried fruit or nuts. It's simple to make but it does requires time and patience since it is twice baked after all. Derrick loves blueberries and almonds, so I thought I would incorporate those into the biscotti. It's a great combination and it's a fun treat anytime of the day.

Chocolate Kahlua Cake and Giveaway

Guess what... Kitchen Runway turns two today! Which makes it a perfect occasion for some alcohol and chocolate cake! This chocolate Kahlua cake is incredibly easy to make and is always a hit at parties...it must be because of the Kahlua and vodka. It's moist and not overly sweet and the aroma of Kahlua and chocolate is simply irresistible. I've added chocolate chips to the cake and a healthy helping of cream cheese frosting. It is a celebration after all!

Pumpkin is a classic fall flavor and great to serve at Thanksgiving. One of the best ways to enjoy pumpkin is in a cupcake with a generous helping of cream cheese frosting. These pumpkin cupcakes moist and smell amazing while baking in the oven! The aroma from the cinnamon, nutmeg and all spice fills the house with a scent that is warm and comforting. It’s exactly what Thanksgiving should smell like!
