Cupcake Recipes
Cupcakes are a simple dessert that is easy to make but can be made elegant by adding special designs to the frosting, fun extracts, decorations on top, colors and liquors to the batter and frosting. They can be altered to make them gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan and sugar-free or no processed sugar added. There is no end to deliciousness here.

Pie Recipes
Pies are one of those desserts that are not made too often unless it is the holidays. Pies are also one of the most served desserts in restaurants. I really enjoy making them in Mason Jars.

Creme Brulee Desserts are a little trickier to make. You usually need to bake them in a water bath. They are smooth and creamy and most have a crunchy top made by a kitchen torch.
