Recipe: Pumpkin Bundt Cake

*Original recipe from Buns In My Oven*

I found this recipe in August and modified it a little. I love it. Here's what you'll need.

For the cake:

1 Box yellow cake mix

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup canola oil

1 can pumpkin

1/4 cup water 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

4 eggs

For the Glaze:

4 tablespoons butter

1 cup powdered sugar

2 tablespoons milk



Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour bundt pan.

Mix all the cake ingredients together for 2 minutes on high, or until it's all combined and smooth.

Bake for 40-50 minutes. (I always do 40)

Let cool in pan 15 minutes. Flip onto cake plate, and finish cooling.


For the glaze, brown butter on low. (It takes forever!)

In small bowl, whisk in milk and powdered sugar.

Pour glaze over cake.



I hope you enjoy this recipe. It's pretty simple and very yummy, also super moist. I don't do recipes often on here, but this one is practically begging to be shared with the world!

Here's a picture of one I did. Not the greatest pic, forgive me!

Easiest Christmas Punch Ever (Blogmas 15)

Here is a super simple, way easy recipe for punch. You just need two ingredients. You can use Sprite or Ginger Ale and you'll need sherbet.

1: Don't refrigerate the soda, or it won't melt the sherbet.

2: You can use any flavor of sherbet you want, because it works with any of them. We usually just pick the color that goes with the party. Ruby Red for a 40th anniversary, green for Christmas, whatever works for you.

3: Put the sherbet in the punch bowl and then fill in with soda. As the sherbet melts or you serve the punch, add more soda. If you run out of sherbet, just put another container in the bowl.

Hope you love this super easy punch recipe. Happy Blogmas!

Family Fruit Salad Recipe (Blogmas 11)

This is a recipe that belonged to my great-grandmother! I hope you enjoy it as much as our family does. This is written how she wrote it, not organized by ingredient or step. But stick with, okay, because its super yummy!

This makes a large fruit salad.

Buy & drain 2 large cans of fruit cocktail, 2 average size cans pineapple, and 1 large jar maraschino cherries.

Let these drain while cutting up: 4 oranges, 4 apples (unpeeled), 4 or more bananas (cut up and add the bananas last).

Also add 1 cup of walnuts and a small bag of marshmallows.

Optional: Small bunch of green grapes.


Put the drained juices in a saucepan. Set aside half a cup of these juices for later. Heat the rest of the juice.

Meanwhile, mix up 4 heaping tablespoons of cornstarch and 2 beaten egg yolks with the cold juice (the juice you set aside earlier). Stir, and when blended, now add slowly to the boiling juice (take that off the stove while mixing, unless you want scrambled eggs stuck in your fruit salad). Then put back over the heat until it is very thick. Then add one cup of sugar, stir over low heat until the juice is glossy, cool until cold, then slice the bananas and mix all things together. Chill/Refrigerate.

Happy Blogmas Guys and I hope you enjoyed this recipe!!!

Best Home Made Apple Cider (Blogmas 3)

This is the best, easiest recipe for apple cider I've found. It is Paleo with no artificial sugar!

What you'll need for this great holiday treat:
1 Bottle of apple juice

2 Of those shorter cinnamon sticks (if you use ground then the cider gets all gritty)

8 Whole cloves (Strain those out before you drink... Trust me on this one!)

1 Tablespoon of honey

1 Teaspoon of pure vanilla extract

Put it all in a big pot on the stove burner and simmer until it reduces. It's that easy! (Just remember to take out the cinnamon sticks and cloves when you're done) Comment below and tell us if you enjoyed making this recipe! Don't forget to subscribe, follow, and share!
