By Nicole Rufus From TheKitchn.com I don’t know if I’ve ever had as much fun developing a recipe as I did with this confetti gooey butter cake, which is inspired by the classic Midwestern dessert. The abundance of rainbow sprinkles largely contributes to the fun factor, but I have to say that eating the cake…

California Walnut Cake Is a Seriously Simple Dessert
Many people are surprised to learn that California walnuts account for 99 percent of the commercial U.S. supply and two-thirds of the world supply. Personally, I love the toasty, creamy flavor that walnuts deliver in desserts. I once came upon this cake idea, combining olive oil and walnuts. Olive oil in a cake? Why not?…
Refreshing Ice Cream Cake Is Perfectly Patriotic
Upon moving to America, it took me a second to understand and appreciate red velvet cake. I’ve never experienced a cake or any dessert whose “flavor” and the name solely depend on the addition of artificial food coloring.

Mississippi Mud Cake Makes Marshmallows the Star
We don’t use marshmallows as much as we should. They’re often reserved for cereal bars, like in delicious cookies-and-cream Rice Krispies treats or for cups of hot chocolate.

Key Lime Layer Cake Brings Sunshine to Your Table
Key lime pie gets all the spotlight, but this key lime cake hits all the right notes. It plays on the sweet and tart flavors in key lime pie, but infuses them into a fluffy cake and a not-too-sweet cream cheese frosting. The cake layers get their velvety and tender texture through the reverse creaming…
