Coffee Cake
4 cups Original Bisquick mix
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. almond extract
3 eggs
1 can (21 oz.) cherry pie filling
Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
1 to 2 Tbl. milk
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom and sides of a 15x10x1 inch pan with shortening or cooking spray. In large bowl, stir all coffee cake ingredients except pie filling; beat vigorously with spoon 30 seconds.
Spread two-thirds of the batter (about 2 1/2 cups) in pan. Spread pie filling over batter (filling may not cover batter completely). Drop remaining batter by tablespoon onto pie filling.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until light brown. Meanwhile, in small bowl, stir glaze ingredients until smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle glaze over warm coffee cake. Serve warm or cool.
Can substitute any pie flavor of pie filing.
This recipe is easy to cut in half. Use one 9-inch square pan, 2 eggs and substitute a 10-ounce jar of fruit. Divide remaining ingredient amounts in half.

4 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups half & half
2 cups whole milk
Place bread cubes in a buttered 9x13 glass pan. Drizzle the melted butter over the bread. Do not mix into the bread. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs until broken up and blend in the sugars, nutmeg, half & half and milk. DO NOT OVERBEAT THIS MIXTURE, JUST COMBINE. Pour the mixture over the bread cubes and let it all soak in, gently patting the bread down into the milk every now and then. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake pudding for 50 minutes, checking it at 40 minutes to make sure that it's not getting too brown. If it is, cover loosely with foil. Pudding is done when it is puffy all over and golden. Let cool.
CARAMEL SAUCE
1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup evaporated milk
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with the brown sugar. Bring to a boil and remove from the heat. Whisk in this salt, vanilla and milk. The sauce can be made ahead of time then warmed in the microwave. Cut putting into squares and top with warm sauce. It can also be served with vanilla ice cream.
This recipe was delicious! We've served it with ice cream and without , it's great either way!!! I used croissants in place of the white bread. I'm sure it would work well with any kind of bread you have.

Lemon Buttermilk Sheet Cake
Cake:
2 1/2 cups cake flour (no substitutions)
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup buttermilk
3 Tbl. grated lemon zest
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups sugar
12 Tbl. (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted, softened butter (I have used salted butter)
3 large eggs plus 1 large egg yolk
Glaze:
3 cups powdered sugar
3 Tbl. lemon juice
2 Tbl. buttermilk
Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour 9x13 baking dish. (You can also make it in a cookie sheet - sheet cake style.)
Whisk flour, powder, soda and salt in medium bowl. Set aside. In a measuring cup, combine buttermilk, lemon juice and vanilla. Set aside.
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat sugar and lemon zest on medium speed until moist and fragrant (about 1 minute). Remove 1/4 cup of sugar mixture, cover and set aside.
Add softened butter to remaining sugar mixture and beat until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes). Beat in the eggs and yolk, one at a time, until incorporated. Reduce speed to low. Add the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk mixture in 2 additions. Mix until smooth (about 30 more seconds).
Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (about 25-35 minutes). Be careful not to overbake. Cool cake for 10 minutes.
While the cake is cooling, whisk the glaze ingredients together until smooth. Gently spread glaze over the cake and sprinkle with reserved sugar and lemon zest mixture. Allow to cool completely, at least 2 hours.
This recipe is from America's Test Kitchen and it has become one of my favorites. It sounds harder to make than it is. If you zest the lemons and squeeze the juice, you can freeze them until you are ready to make the cake. If you like lemon, I think you'll love this cake!!

Fudgy Chocolate Cake
1 cup butter or margarine
1cup water
1/2 cup cocoa
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
Melt the margarine, water and cocoa to boiling, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Add rest of ingredients. Beat until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour into greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes.
I usually frost it with a butter icing recipe off the back of the icing sugar bag. Sometimes I just frost it with whipped cream. Sometimes I put little holes all over the top of the cake while it's still warm and put a layer of Carmel sauce on the cake. After that cools I put whipped cream on top.

Crock-pot Cake
Crock-pot Cake
1 large box instant chocolate pudding
1 small box instant chocolate pudding
3 cups milk
(for richer 'filling' use 2 large
boxes and omit the small box)
Whisk together and pour into your crock-pot. A crock pot liner works great but if you don't have one, be sure to spray it good with pam.
1 box chocolate cake mix (prepared according to the directions)
Pour this slowly over the pudding in the crock-pot - DO NOT MIX THESE
TOGETHER!!!
Cover and cook for 2 ½ hours on low setting. Let it sit, covered, for an
additional 30 minutes so the pudding will set up. You can serve it warm with whipped topping or ice cream. It is good chilled too. I'm sure you could experiment with different flavors too.
Tip: put a couple of paper towels between your crock pot and the lid. That keeps the water from dripping onto you cake.

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 (3.4 ounce) package instant butterscotch pudding mix
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/3 cup finely chopped crystallized ginger
1 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 24 muffin cups, or line with paper muffin liners. Whisk together the flour, pudding mix, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ground ginger, allspice, cloves, and crystallized ginger in a bowl; set aside.
Beat the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Beat in the vanilla and pumpkin puree with the last egg. Stir in the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 20 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
I made these one boring Sunday afternoon last fall and they definitely spiced up the day:)! They are fantastic! I frosted them with cream cheese frosting. I didn't have a butterscotch pudding mix so I used a white chocolate pudding. I have never bought crystallized ginger so I omitted that and instead of 1/2 tsp. of ginger, I added 1 and a 1/2 tsp. of ginger. They were honestly some of the best cupcakes ever! The kids loved them!
