A refreshing lime, cream cheese dessert for St Patrick's Day.

They are actually a remake of a recipe for lemon cream cheese bars that I have been making about 30 years.  The original recipe was on the side of a cake box.  I still make them frequently and was thinking of that recipe again last week.  I decided to change a few  ingredients and created lime cream cheese cake bars.

STREUSEL TOPPED CRANBERRY EGGNOG CAKE BARS

5 Comments

Streusel Topped Cranberry Eggnog Cake Bars are so easy and delicious. The perfect recipe to start your fall baking with.

This is an easy and delicious recipe to get your fall baking started.  Last year at the end of the holiday season I had some eggnog and some cranberries leftover so this recipe was created.

The base is a box of yellow cake mix with additional ingredients including eggnog.  It is topped with fresh cranberries, a streusel topping and baked. 

To add even more goodness, a glaze is drizzled over it at the end.

This recipe is excellent to serve for large groups or for taking to a  covered dish as it makes 40 bars.

Sharing this Peanut Butter Chocolate Texas Sheet Cake recipe today.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Texas Sheetcake is an awesome dessert. The 2 kinds of sheet cakes are combined and topped with 2 kinds of frosting.

A few days ago, I was in the mood to make one, but I was also in the mood to make a peanut butter sheet cake.  This crazy thought popped into my head that maybe I could make them both in one cake! That is how Peanut Butter Chocolate Texas Sheet Cake was created. It is so good!
