Lemon Soaked Sweet Berry Cake
Berry desserts are one of my most satisfying favorites. They’re light, fresh, and usually very moist. Add lemon to that and I’m in love.

This time I made a puff pastry version of sopapillas. (from Pepperidge Farm) Preheat the oven to 400. (Yes, I started making treats at […]
