Little known fact about me: I love chocolate. Okay, that might have been obvious by now if you are a frequent visitor of my little part of these here interwebs, but seriously, I live for chocolate. I’m not even in the slightest bit embarrassed about admitting to the fact that I probably eat chocolate almost every day. Most of the time, it’s just a small square, or a few chocolate chips, but I have a hard time going a full day without my much needed chocolate fix. Continue reading

Coconut Orange Bundt Cake with Coconut Whipped Cream #Bundtbakers
For the past few weeks, I’ve been making a conscious effort to eat healthy, which hasn’t been that difficult considering the endless amount of nutritious and delicious recipes on the internet. Eating more healthfully, for me, often means opting for cooking rather than ordering in, and I’ve been having a blast researching so many different recipes from some of my favorite cookbooks and blogs. I’ve been stocking up on veggies,healthier flours (buckwheat pancakes anyone?), and cutting back on sugar. The hardest part about conscious eating, for me at least, is that I can’t resist my incessant sweet tooth. As hard as I try, my hankering for baked goods can not be denied. In addition to my pathetic lack of self control when it comes to sweets, I also didn’t want to miss out on this month’s #bundtbakers theme: Coconut (one of my faves!) Continue reading
Kentucky Bourbon Cake #BundtBakers
I’m trying so hard not to talk about the weather, because it’s so boring, I know, but I just can’t help myself. It’s frigid here in NYC, and I’m just not ready for it. Yesterday marked the lowest recorded high temperature since 1882. That’s right, at a muggy 33 degrees, this time of the year has not seen these kind of temperatures in over a century. So what can we do to keep ourselves warm? I’ll tell you what – drink (responsibly of course). Because when life brings you frigid temperatures, keep yourself warm with a strong drink and a slice of this Kentucky Bourbon Cake. It’s cold outside, and bourbon keeps you warm, it’s really just science. Continue reading
Apple Butter Bundt Cake with Cider Caramel Glaze #bundtbakers
Last weekend, my sister, Sam, and I visited our good friend Lydia in Massachusetts. Lydia is incredibly talented in the kitchen, and has taken her talent and passion for all things sweet to create her own brand: Sweet Lydia’s. She’s pretty much a celebrity in her home town, and is known by everyone as the woman who makes the delectable marshmallows and sweets that she sells in her store. I really admire how Lydia has taken her passion and turned it into a successful business. She works so hard, and it’s so exciting to see her business grow. Continue reading
Carrot Bundt Cake with Maple Cream Cheese Frosting #BundtBakers
My boyfriend, Jordan, is obsessed with making lists. He makes lists for everything, his top 10 albums of all time, his top 5 trips of all time, his top 10 Cassie’s Kitchen recipes, he’s always and forever ranking items in his head and somehow manages to remember them all when asked to recite them. He’s always asking me for my favorites – and I don’t always have an answer because my tastes change pretty often. The music I listen to now is certainly different than what I was listening to in high school or college, and the things I like to do have changed as well. But something that has never changed, from the time I was little, is my favorite month of the year – September. Continue reading
