Strawberry Crunch Cake
“This recipe is a twist on an old classic favorite, Strawberry Crunch Ice Cream bars. This cake is a sure win for any picnic, potluck, or BBQ.” – Roni
Peachy for Peach Cobbler
“Peaches are probably one of my favorite fruits. There are so many ways to serve them but probably the most fun is going to the orchard to pick the plump beauties from the trees eat a few and talk about the jams, cobbler, pies, and sweets we are going to make with them.” – Natalie
Easy Crescent Dough Lemon Bars
“Super simple and a hit. My mom now requires me to make these for her birthday while the kids ask for them all the time. The butter, lemon curd, juice, and sugar can all be tweaked to your liking. Use more butter if you want a richer baked good or less if you want it more bread-like.” – Amber
Lemon Poppy Seed Cake
“This was my mom’s recipe and she passed it on to me through her handwritten cookbook for my new cooking ventures! I normally, just as she does, double the glaze recipe and add more lemon than it calls for. I just LOVE the sweet and sour kick I get in my mouth. This is a decadent, moist, and incredibly flavorful recipe!” – Brittany
Key Lime Pound Cake
“This is my mother’s recipe for Key Lime Pound Cake that was a staple in our house every Easter and throughout the summer. Moist, dense, and delicious!, I hope you enjoy it!” – Gayle
Strawberry Crinkle Cookies
“These four-ingredient strawberry crinkle cookies are sweet, chewy, and perfect for strawberry lovers. Using a cake mix these are super simple.” – Debbie
Lemon Pound Cake With Warm Lemon Sauce
“Everyone loves lemon! It tastes so light and just like springtime. This is the perfect cake for any occasion.” – Susan
Fruit Crisp
“This is a fast and easy dessert! Everyone thinks I spent all day putting it together. Little do they know how easy it is and of course, I will never tell. My momma taught me how to cook Southern style, being from the hills of Kentucky. I love cooking and even more, love watching my family eat it all up.” – Debbie
Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes
“These taste WONDERFUL! The batch does only make ten, and you will want more than that. I would recommend doubling the ingredients so that it makes a total of twenty cupcakes (or more, if you prefer), rather than ten. I made these and they were all gone in just a few minutes.” – Amanda
Meyer Lemon Bars
“I really enjoyed the Meyer lemon bars and the Meyer lemon flavour was a nice change from ordinary lemons. I am still surprised that something so naturally tart as a lemon can become so magically good in sweet dessert like this.” – Kevin
Tropical Pound Cake
“My husband finished his first piece of this and then said think I will have another!” – Susan
Blueberry Pie
“This pie recipe probably isn’t a far cry from other recipes you’ve seen, but boy – does it make one delicious pie! My Mom has made it for years, and now I have started to do the same. It disappears quickly!” – Phyllis
Strawberry Shortcake-Cake
“My best friend loves strawberry shortcake. I love cake and love to make special cakes. I developed this combination just for her and now everyone at work loves it and I’ve even been ‘hired’ to make it for a few people over the years.” – Angelina
Lemon Meringue Pie
“Originally from my grandmother via my mom. I’ve adjusted it through the years to make it tarter because that’s how my family likes it.” – Penny
