Everyday I see people pinning fancy food on boards with names like, "I'm Going To Make This For My Beautiful Children," or "Simple Recipes - Under 32 Hours Cooking Time," or "Meal Plan For September," or "I'll Wear My Pearls While Cooking This."
I'm pinning fancy food, most of which are dessert items, to a board called, "Food I Want Someone To Cook For Me," because I have no illusions that I'm ever going to actually cook any of this for myself, no matter how yummy and wonderful it looks.
Cranberry & Almond Upside Down Cakes. This is an upside down muffin. With cranberries. And things like cinnamon, all spice, orange and lemon zest. And then you put whipped cream on top. I need two dozen of these to appear on my computer table right now.
Caramelized Pear Bread Pudding. I'm not sure that I've ever actually had bread pudding, but it seems like something that should be eaten in the fall. And it has pears. Pears make everything better. People don't make enough things with pears.
I'll See Your Pumpkin Spice Latte and Raise You A Mascarpone Cheesecake Pot... I have to appreciate a dessert that comes with a small side of snark in its name. I think I would want mine in a larger mug, though. Or I'll just take two, no, three of these mugs.
Baked Apple Cider Donut Holes. Am I the only one who spells it "doughnut," because it looks better that way? However you spell it, these look yummy. I'm not sure how the baking instead of frying aspect might change them, but I'm pretty sure you can't mess up a doughnut. Especially if there is apple cider inside of them. I would like a dozen immediately.
Light My Fire: Inside-Out S'mores Cake. I'm not even sure how good this will taste, but anytime someone is merging cake and s'mores, I have to at least give it a second look. And it looks good.
What fall foods are you excited to eat this year?

Yum! Those dishes look amazing! I may have to try the donuts!
ReplyDeleteIf you try them, you have to tell me how they taste, and if baking makes them completely different from frying!
DeleteDoes red velvet cake count as a fall food? They're quite popular here in the south for the holidays, and where I live in the south, the holidays feel more like fall than winter.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! It really is pretty fallish (although I reserve the right to eat it year-round) and I remember my grandmother used to make red velvet cakes in the fall.
DeleteBread pudding I forgot about bread pudding!
ReplyDeleteI really have to try it some day!
DeleteOk I'm hungry! Everthing looks absolutely delish!! I love baking but I seldom have time. I'll definitely try the Pumkin Spice Latte. If it comes out right, I can save a few buck from having to buy it at Starbucks.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for the Fall Back into Blogging. It's been super fun!
I'm so happy you have enjoyed the Fall Back Into Blogging!
DeletePumpkin Spice Lattes are so very good. I look forward to them all year.
I'm so cooking challenged that my kids think hot dogs require skill. Because I've messed them up once or twice. So I LOVE your board idea. And I want those doughnut (yes, that's much better) holes. Dunkin Donuts has something similar right now. For those of us who don't cook.
ReplyDeleteHa! I've had a few hot dog disasters myself, so I know exactly what you mean! It is good to know I'm not alone in this world of not cooking.
DeleteOh my glob, all of this looks delicious. We need our own personal chefs!
ReplyDeleteStopping by from SITS,

Yes!! I completely agree. A personal chef would be wonderful.
DeleteThose all look yummy! I could really use those doughnuts. YUMM!
ReplyDeleteThere should be some rule that we all get a doughnut every day. That would be a beautiful world.
DeleteUmm I will take a couple of the cheesecakes pretty please, minus the whipped cream bleech. Yeah I said it I do not DO whip cream at any time.. I need to hop on this one.. cause I can cook ahem coff coff..
ReplyDeleteI'll happily take your whipped creme. As long as it is the kind from the spray can - I don't like that whipped topping stuff in the plastic tubs. yuck!
DeleteYou can SO cook. *jealous*
Yummy! I am now wanting dessert!
ReplyDeleteNew three way follower from Florida. I was going to attempt some alliteration, but the first part sounded weird enough. :)

Alliteration is always fun - I was just teaching my daughter about that in homeschool the other day! Thanks for the follow.
DeleteDessert is a beautiful thing.
You are hilarious! You so have to let us know if anyone takes you up the offer to cook one of these for you. Hmmmm...maybe I will! Just realizing I haven't been over here enough. I hate there isn't more time in the day sometimes to visit everyone consistently. This is a fun post :)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. I would love to have a dedicated block of time to just visit and read blogs every day. So far that hasn't happened.
DeleteSo happy you enjoyed this! I'll let you know if any goodies appear at my house. ;-)
Um...YUM! Who can we get to come make these for us??
ReplyDeleteI don't know....but we need to find someone right away! ;-)
DeleteI think we deserve it after all our hard work.
This is a great post. Very entertaining indeed. Thanks for visiting my blog today!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you enjoyed it!
DeleteOkay, number one you just made me hungry... number two this is yet another reason you need to move to Kentucky, or I need to move to Florida. I can cook (for the most part) and would ABSOLUTELY hook you up with every one of these fabulous treats if I could... number three I'm trying to figure out if any of these would ship well, because I would so do that for you. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI think the donut holes have my vote!! Yummy!!
ReplyDelete"I'll Wear My Pearls While Cooking This." <- sarcasm? Just checking!
ReplyDeleteCome to BlissDom or BlogHer and I will stock our hotel room with copious quantities of home baked goodies! :)
These all look so good, but I'm definitely loving the sound of the caramelized pear bread pudding! And pears are totally in season right now. I love a good baking challenge and if teleportation were possible, I'd get right on this and send it over!
ReplyDeleteCame across your blog on SITS-looking forward to reading more!

That pear bread pudding looks amazing. I hope my husband makes it for me.
ReplyDeleteThat is such a funny Pinterest board. I would cook for you my dear.
ReplyDeleteI think I'd take all of these too! I'm going to make some really cute ghost meringues with my girls in a week or too. They're easy. And fun!
