Contrary to popular belief, zucchini actually goes pretty well as a bundt cake ingredient. The texture of zucchini keeps the cake wonderfully moist, and the mild flavor retains the sweetness added to the cake because of the chocolate chips. This cake becomes an instant hit during summer tea parties. Full Recipe: Zucchini Bundt Cake

I love everything about these muffins. The deliciously strong aroma of cinnamon with the sweet goodness of brown sugar, drizzled with the creamiest cream cheese glaze. The added bonus is that they are much easier to make than cinnamon rolls and taste just as good (maybe even better – but that’s just my opinion). Full Recipe: Cinnamon Roll Muffins

Orange Loaf Cake
