A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
I’m still on that salty, sweet, tart, totally yummy margarita inspired recipe kick. And let me tell you, this Key Lime Margarita Pie might just be my favorite combo of those flavors to date. This pie not only tastes amazing, but it’s oh so easy to make. I’m an Arizona girl, so I am all about no bake desserts once the triple digits hit (which would be today)! It’s funny. If you asked me if I loved lime, I’d probably {Read More}
Do you know what today is? Let’s play multiple choice… A. It’s Pi Day – 3.14 B. It’s my 17th Wedding Anniversary C. It’s my brother’s 4th Wedding Anniversary D. All of the above If you went with D, All Of Above, you would be correct. And yes, my little brother stole my wedding date. So in honor of all of this awesomeness, I have to share a pie recipe with you, and it just so happens that I recently {Read More}
Sometimes you just have to go totally over the top with a dessert. This is one of those times. Let me introduce you to Peanut Butter Crunch Brownie Mousse Pie {also known as the birthday dessert I made my hubby}… Did I mention it’s over the top, just a little bit? This dessert was inspired by a dessert made by the incredibly talented Chef Joe DiPaolo that I enjoyed last year while visiting the Duncan Hines Test Kitchen. You can {Read More}
November is here and the dessert that always comes to mind is pie! I have shared that pie is one of the desserts that I don’t make often and that I’d like to change that. I thought we would kick off November with a look at over 50 great pie recipes that have been shared by bakers and bloggers around the web. I will start with a few of my own… Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie Pie Pops One Great Apple {Read More}
If there is one thing you probably do not see a lot here on Love From The Oven, it’s pie. Pie has always been a bit intimidating to me. But the variety and options that you can create with pie are almost endless (and my husband LOVES it), so I need to kick my pie making into a higher gear. It’s something I’ve been reading up on and learning more about and starting to branch out into more. I think {Read More}
Pecans + Pie + Cupcakes. Why the heck not? I don’t bake with nuts very often. It’s not because I don’t like them (love them actually), it’s because I have a nut allergy kiddo. My husband and I still use peanut butter (our daughter’s allergy is to tree nuts, but she also avoids all peanut products), but baking with tree nuts requires a good amount of extra time to make certain that there is no chance of cross contamination. Dessert {Read More}
This weekend we will be celebrating my Grandfather’s 90th Birthday and I took on the task of creating the desserts for the event. I wanted to try some new recipes, and work with some flavors that made me think of fall (I’m kind of desperate for fall right now). I whipped up three kinds of cupcakes, Pecan Pie Cupcakes, Snickerdoodle Cupcakes & Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes. Everyone in my house had a different favorite, my husband liked the Pecan Pie ones, {Read More}
I was walking through the grocery store the other day, minding my own business and this landed in my cart… Dark chocolate cream cheese? Sure, you can come home with me. I will say, this stuff would be fine straight out of the tub, there really is no need to do anything with it aside from consuming. But given this is a blog about desserts, I figured “eat straight from tub” wasn’t going to cut it. So how about Easy {Read More}
The date 3.14 is important for four reasons… Our wedding anniversary – 16 My brother’s anniversary – 3 Pi Day – 3.1415926535897932384626433832795… Einstein’s Birthday – 133 Can I just say that my brother got married in a MUCH more stylish decade, and had a better photographer (moi!). So CLEARLY we need to celebrate. And we need PIE. I mean it’s PI DAY – it’s our obligation to have pie! Since it’s been two years since my husband and I {Read More}

I need to start this post with a confession. A deep dark secret of mine. Time to just put it out there… Before today, I had NEVER made a pie crust from scratch. Ever. You’d think that someone who bakes as much as I do would have made many pie crusts in her day, but Pillsbury and their refrigerated pie dough have enabled me all these years. The worst part is that I’ve often been complimented on my pie crust {Read More}
