Ah, the day I look forward to the most of the Countdown: Best Dessert! I have the biggest sweet tooth and have entirely too many dessert recipes saved/stashed/hoarded. And that certainly will never stop me from saving more. I can't wait to see what my friends share today.
Stop by the blogs below to see more of the best desserts of 2016!
The collection has closed. Let other people know about it through twitter.
It's definitely hard for me to pick my favorite desserts because I love dessert entirely too much. I think at least half the recipes on my pin boards (if not more) are dessert. I keep pinning desserts and I don't know if I will ever have enough days to make them all. Here are the recipes that made my list this year:
- Cappuccino Dark Chocolate Cupcakes - These gorgeous cupcakes were for my mom-in-law's birthday. They were so rich and then topped with lovely mousse-like frosting.
- Best Ever Carrot Cake - I love carrot cakes with coconut and pineapple, but I also love when it's just carrots as the star!
- Peach Dumplings - Probably the most unhealthy dessert on the list, but I can't imagine anything that could taste better than it. You can use different fruits for it too.
- Salted Caramel Mocha Bundt Cake - I have made this 3 different times. It's the moistest cake and the topping is heaven. HEAVEN.
- Sour Patch Kid Cake - I made this for Nick for his birthday because he loves Sour Patch Kids. It's a lovely lightly flavored lemon cake that works so well with it.
- Biscoff Cookie Dough Ice Cream - I combined a couple recipes to make this one. The base is creamy and delicious and the Biscoff cookie dough bites are amazing.
- Raspberry Lemonade Cheesecake Parfaits - Our 4th of July dessert from 2015...I am really honestly loving lemon desserts lately.
- Pumpkin Cake Cheesecake - Literally one of the best combinations of foods ever. OMG.
- Hot Cocoa Poke Cake - I adore this poke cake because it's chocolately and chocolate. So much chocolate.
- Chocolate Cupcakes with Dulce de Leche Buttercream and Candied Bacon - Matthew requested chocolate cupcakes with caramel and bacon...so that happened LOL
- Pumpkin Cake Roll - My very first cake roll and it was really successful and gorgeous and tasted incredible!!
- Gingerbread Cookie Bars - These are so classic tasting and wonderful for the holidays. I wish I would have made them again this year!
In case you missed it...
