Topped with some shredded coconut and festive "skewer" of pineapple and a maraschino cherry, these just look like a fun summer treat - just as tropical as the ever-popular frozen drink.

Nikki designed some signs to put on the cupcake bar to identify the flavors and add a playful feel reminiscent of a 1950’s soda shop to the buffet.What really elevates this cupcake bar… |

Strawberry Margarita CupcakesI made margarita cupcakes a few months ago and they were very popular but two things about the recipe left me a little bothered. One I don't usually bake from a cake mix, so while the cupcakes are good, I felt like I was cheating.

Since the couple is getting married in Las Vegas, the hostess chose to make The Hangover the theme of the shower. I wanted to do a chocolate cupcake and non-chocolate cupcake for some variety.… |

For some reason, the last bunch I picked up seemed to turn brown overnight. So tonight I decided to make banana bread. I didn't want anything fancy or complicated, just… |

Despite the canned soup, its delicious and a great comfort food dish.However, I wanted to eliminate the high sodium, chemicals and fat from the canned soup and ground… |

Traditional Vanilla Ice CreamHomemade ice cream is one of my favorite summer treats. Growing up my mom had one of those old fashioned ice cream makers that you filled the metal insert with the cream and such and then loaded up with ice and rock salt. The machine would churn for what seemed like hours - but maybe that's because it was super loud and mom always… |
