Pumpkin Cake

Each bite of this moist and spicy two-layer pumpkin cake just melts in your mouth. A combination of molasses and brown sugar is infused throughout the fluffy cream cheese frosting which provides a wonderful caramel undertone to the cake. A generous amount of frosting is sandwiched between the two cake layers and applied to the outside of the cake as well, without overwhelming the pumpkin flavor and the spices in the cake.




















Yields: 10-12 slices.

Not Your Ordinary Banana Bars

These soft and moist banana bars get their great flavor from ripe bananas and a special blend of spices which includes cinnamon. The topping of these bars consists of apricot jam and white chocolate shavings. The slight tartness of the jam and the vanilla aroma in the European white chocolate shavings offer a pleasant contrast to the natural sweetness of the bananas. Believe me, you'll go bananas over them!




















Yields: an 8"x8" pan or 9"x13" pan.
