Peach Buttermilk Bundt Cake

May 31, 2015 ·

Peach Buttermilk Bundt Cake has a delicious cinnamon swirl running through the middle of a cream cheese, buttermilk cake studded with peaches throughout. Thank you to CansGetYouCooking.com through the Mom It Forward Blogger Network for sponsoring this post.

This peaches and cream-inspired Peach Buttermilk Bundt Cake recipe is made by combining my favorite elements from two cake recipes – this Blueberry Buttermilk cake and this Poppy Seed cake. Nothing beats buttermilk in baked goods, which becomes even more delicious when it is combined with cream cheese and vanilla. The cinnamon sugar swirl makes any cake absolutely irresistible, especially when combined with diced peaches.

Coconut Oil M&M Cookie Bars

April 8, 2015 ·

Coconut Oil M&M Cookie Bars are a chewy, brown sugar cookie bar made with coconut oil and filled with lots of M&Ms…in other words, the best dessert ever! #MyDataMyWay via #CollectiveBias thanks to Walmart Family Mobile!

A while ago I declared these Coconut Oil Chocolate Chip Cookies to be the best chocolate chip cookies ever. Since I’m often asked to bring desserts to potlucks or parties, those cookies (or depending on time, these Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars) are some of my go-tos. Both are simple, classic and everybody loves them. I especially love the flavor from the coconut oil in the cookies but also love the ease of baking the cookie bars. So why not combine the two (and toss in some M&Ms for good measure) to make Coconut Oil M&M Cookie Bars!
