The best way to get through winter is to embrace it with the knowledge that spring will arrive again before you know it. In Minnesota, we buy warm clothing, special outdoor gear, and indoor space heaters. Then, we head outside to ice skate, sled, ski, snowboard, ice fish, snowmobile and play in the snow!

Afterward, we warm up with mugs of hot cocoa and if we are still cold, we can wrap up in warm blankets near the fireplace or by a space heater. This Hot Cocoa Cake is the perfect thing to enjoy after a day of fun winter activities!

Have I ever mentioned that fall is my favorite season? Actually, I think that is a pretty common here in Minnesota. Contrary to popular belief, our summers are actually quite hot and humid. By the time fall comes around, we are all ready for the cooler temps. Autumn is beautiful in Minnesota with all the changing leaves.

On my way to the grocery store the other morning, the sun was still low in the sky, there was fog in all the low places, the leaves on the trees were yellow and orange, the light was golden and it was beautiful out!

When I got to the grocery store, I found all of the fall produce, outside of the store on display. I spotted some mini pumpkins and thought about how fun they would be to fill with pumpkin cheesecake mousse as a fun, fall dessert. So, today I’m sharing a recipe for Pumpkin Cheesecake Mousse!

Caramel Apple Cupcakes

I created this mouthwatering fall dessert recipe for Caramel Apple Cupcakes, with cream cheese buttercream frosting and warm caramel drizzled on top, as part of a sponsored post for Musselman’s Apple Butter.

My husband and I went on a vacation to North Carolina to celebrate our 20th anniversary. While on vacation, we went to a bakery that sold only cupcakes. They specialize in cupcakes that have a warm sauce that you pour over the cupcake and it melts the buttercream frosting turning it into a really special treat. I was so inspired by all the cupcakes that I had to try some of my own versions.

With the cooler temps and beautiful fall colors on the trees, I am in the mood for apple recipes, so I decided to make Caramel Apple Cupcakes made with easy apple cupcakes, cream cheese buttercream frosting and warm caramel sauce drizzled on top.
