It's a chocolate and raspberry kind of week in my world. I guess that's what happens when you make a bottomless batch of Chocolate Raspberry Ganache. By bottomless I don't actually mean bottomless. Though I do wish I had some kind of magical power so I could...
Remember my bestie, Miss Sheila Longbottom? We celebrated her 25th birthday last week, (25!!! Weren't we JUST in college?) so naturally it was my responsibility to craft her birthday cake. Speaking of, back in the good-ole college days we always went to P.F. Chang's for Sheila's celebratory birthday...
Ok, so I know what you're thinking. C'mon Katie, another berry recipe? Yes, you may have noticed that I'm a little obsessed with berry desserts lately. (Like this one & this one.) I can't help it! I'm a slave to ripe, juicy berries. In my defense, I've wanted...

This Lime Layer Cake with Mango Buttercream came into creation because I had a couple mangoes in the refrigerator that were on their last legs. While trying to brainstorm mango recipe ideas, I couldn't get mango margaritas out of my head. Maybe it's because they're...
I am 100% on the mason jar bandwagon. Take something average and put it in a mason jar...
Welcome back to {Dad's Week}! Last post we tackled the all-that-is-manly mustache cake. Today's assignment? Bacon. It has been said that there are few things in life that make a man happier than bacon does. While I don't know this to be fact, I do know...
It's Dad's week here at Butterlust! In honor of Father's Day (yes, it's this Sunday) I'm going to be sharing dad-worthy recipes all week long. Let me tell you a little something about Greg. That's my dad. No, I don't call him Greg to his face, but...
