The instant summer hits, I start craving all the pineapple. There’s just something about a perfectly sweet pineapple that is so delicious and refreshing on a hot summer day.

I love to throw it on the grill for simple grilled pineapple, turn it into pineapple fluff, and I really love using it in cakes.

Pineapple upside-down cake might be the most well-known cake that uses pineapple in it, but it’s not the only one! My pineapple cake with cream cheese frosting is always a hit, pineapple angel food cake is a light and fluffy delight, and cherry pineapple dump cake and pineapple dump cake are perfect for taking to any cookout.

And today we’re going to add this easy pineapple cake to that list!

One of the most amazing things about blogging is the incredible friendships you build along the way.

I’ve met a lot of people because of this site, and one of them is my friend Amber who I met way back in 2010 on Twitter. She helped me create custom table markers for an event I was assisting with and we became instant friends.

Amber is from Texas, so when she had her first baby and some of us bloggers threw her a virtual baby shower, I knew I had to bake up something to honor her home state. It was the first time I made Texas sheet cake, but it definitely was not the last!

I might be a Midwestern girl through and through, but I know how to spot good chocolate cake recipes and lemme tell ya – Texas sheet cake is one of the best! Serve it up with some Southern sweet tea for a taste of the South no matter where you live.

I came across this carrot bundt cake recipe in a bit of a strange way. 

My right-hand woman Stephie sent me a TikTok telling a story from Reddit of how a carrot cake recipe was threatening to pull a family apart. And it just so happened that the Redditor shared the recipe in their post.

Well, you know that I was curious and had to try this cake. 

I ended up making a couple of tweaks, including turning it into a bundt cake, but the end result is one great carrot cake recipe that would be an amazing addition to your Easter menu.

I first made this chocolate guinness cake years and years ago for my younger brother, Jared.

Even though I’m not a big fan of alcohol, I often find myself buying various libations that pique my interest for use in recipes. One of those random purchases somewhere along the line included a couple bottles of stout beer that I just knew would lend itself quite well to a chocolatey cake.

And so, thanks to a bit of impulse shopping and my little brother, this chocolate Guinness cake was born.

My dad is pretty much a chocolate fanatic – the darker and richer the better. He loves bananas, too. So it only seemed natural that the first time I made this banana bundt cake finished with satiny chocolate ganache was for his birthday.

I’ve never been one to try my hand at elaborately decorated cakes. Don’t get me wrong, I think they’re pretty darn stunning. It’s just that I have an attention span that rivals a cupcake-eating, Mountain-Dew-chugging 4-year-old. Seriously.

Instead of towering cakes with beautiful piping details, I like to keep things a little more simple – okay, more like easy – and it doesn’t get much easier than bundt cakes. 

And this banana cake is not just any bundt cake.

I love bananas but I can never seem to use them up before they are way too speckled to eat with my morning Cheerios. 

Luckily, that almost always gives me an excuse to bake up something delicious with them!

From strawberry banana muffins to banana cupcakes to banana coffee cake, I’ve got you covered if you also always struggle with a never-ending supply of overly ripe bananas.

And today we’re adding these banana bars with cream cheese frosting to that list!

We are all finally back into our routine. My oldest is back to school, we’ve gotten through the holidays and winter break, and I can get back to work.

So obviously that means it’s time for cake! Cinnamon roll cake, to be exact.

Because I loooooove cinnamon rolls, but I don’t always love how much time they take. (Although I do love making cinnamon rolls with heavy cream as a shortcut!)

But this cake? It’s got all the amazing flavors of that famous breakfast pastry without any of the rising time.

Bake, glaze, and eat. It’s totally one of my new go-to recipes.

Even though I think there should definitely be a place at your Thanksgiving table for apple desserts (especially apple butter cake or apple galette), you know there’s no way I could go through Thanksgiving without a pumpkin dessert or two.

If you love pumpkin pie but don’t want to bother with making an actual pie this year, you’ve got to give this pumpkin gooey butter cake a try.

The assembly is super quick and easy and it’s a great make-ahead dessert, but you’ll still get all of the flavors of your beloved pumpkin pie in every bite.

Honestly, what could be better?

There’s nothing more quintessentially fall than a trip to the apple orchard. And if you live in my house, that trip is always followed up by making at least 1 or 2 batches of my homemade apple butter.

When I was thinking about Thanksgiving recipes this year, I wanted a way to incorporate some of that apple butter. It feels kind of full circle to do that, right?

(I mean besides slathering it all over parker house rolls. That’s a given!)

This apple butter cake is an easy-to-make sheet cake that is topped with brown butter frosting. It has all of the rich flavors of apple butter in a perfectly moist cake. Add in the nutty flavor of the brown butter frosting and this is one incredible dessert!

Our family went apple picking a couple of weeks ago, which means I have had a ton of apples and apple cider taking up space in our refrigerator.

But don’t worry, I’m not going to let any of that apple goodness go to waste. In addition to making a couple of batches of slow cooker apple butter, I’ve been working on some great new apple recipes to share with all of you.

If you are wanting to add some apple desserts to your Thanksgiving dessert menu, this is your lucky year.

Let’s start things off simple with this easy apple bundt cake. This recipe starts with a cake mix but tastes like you made it from scratch, making it the ultimate shortcut recipe to take to any fall party this year.
