	Autumn Spice Cake by Farrell May Podgorsek One of my favorite creations. I was going to make my carrot cake which calls for pureed carrots, and realized I had no carrots.

Even the…	2 votes 1 comment 4243 views

	Zucchini Pan Dessert by Apricot I based this on a recipe called Zucchini Apple Crisp. But, the crust goes in the pan first, and the filling doesn't have ANY apples in it.

Overall, a pretty sweet dessert if…	1 vote 1599 views

Why waste time with some other vehicle for this ooey gooey goodness. I have not delved into the world of baking with Nutella. Until now.…	2 votes 1290 views
