16 Margarita Recipes

May 5, 2016 by Holly 6 Comments

These 16 Margarita Recipes are perfect for spring or your Cinco de Mayo celebration! Is there really a better excuse to have a few (or more)? The margarita is one of my favorite cocktails and I love all the fresh fruit flavors for spring. I only wish I could try ALL of these today! You can kick the flavors up with a bit of jalapeño or go sweet with pineapple, watermelon, or mango flavors. Thankfully, most margarita recipes can be made SKINNY by adding fresh fruit juices and agave nectar instead of sugar! The only thing that I am worried about, is finding a glass large enough to accommodate my thirst. Enjoy and stock up on that tequila!

Pina Colada Poke Cake

April 27, 2016 by Holly Leave a Comment

I have transformed one of my favorite summer cocktails into a dessert with this Pina Colada Poke Cake. This recipe is so simple to make with the addition of rum and crushed pineapple into a yellow cake mix (alcohol + cake = major yummalicious moment). After baking, the cake gets drizzled with Cream of Coconut, topped with an easy Cool Whip frosting, and sprinkled with toasted coconut flakes. …

Strawberry Margaritas with Candied Jalapeños

April 22, 2016 by Holly 4 Comments

The Strawberry Margaritas with candied jalapeños are the perfect addition to your Cinco de Mayo celebration. I just love the combination of sweet and spicy to change things up a bit.

Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes with Lemon Glaze

April 20, 2016 by Holly 2 Comments

These Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes with Lemon Glaze are perfectly fluffy, citrusy and sweet! The lemon glaze is a welcome change from the usual maple syrup routine. I am in love with all things lemon right now for spring and these really hit the spot! They will make the perfect addition to your Mother’s Day brunch and are easy enough for the kids to help make.

A miracle occurred after I made these pancakes…my picky daughter ate them! That’s right, the pickiest person in the world had a bite and then requested to eat a whole one after already eating her usual plain pancakes. Oh my yummy surprise…maybe I can actually make pancakes without having to make 3 different varieties for a change! It is always exciting to be able to change things up a bit after being in a complete pancake Sunday rut.

My daughter loves helping in the kitchen and was so excited to be able to pour some of the ingredients in the mixing bowl (and floor). I am just relieved that she didn’t insist on cracking the egg this time. That can quickly escalate into a very dangerous situation for any nearby objects! A hazmat suit needs to be available close by for such situations…huge sigh of relief.

Be sure to check out my Raspberry Cream Cheese and Andes Chocolate Mint Pancakes for more cakey goodness. I am thinking a pancake buffet is in order for Mother’s Day brunch at my house this year!
