It's September... Which means it's Back to School time! We hosted friends for dinner the other night and I decided to decorate the table in a "Back to School theme" to celebrate their boys Summer ending and starting a new School Year.

Crustless Pumpkin Pie
Ramekins | Gold Stand | Nail Polish I’ve never made soufflés before now! I just bought these adorable individual ceramic ramekins with lids and instantly thought Pumpkin Pies would be perfect. I couldn’t figure out how to add the crust so I decided why not try crustless pies. They are amazing! Truth is I LOVE the crust of the pie probably better than the filling. I made the soufflés just like a regular pumpkin pie but baked it a bit differently. I poured the pumpkin mixture into each ramekin and then set the ramekins into a 9x13 baking dish. I boiled water on the stove in a separate pan and added it to the outside of the ramekins … [Read more...]
Mini Flower Lemon Tarts
Last Sunday, I made these delicious Mini Flower Lemon Tarts. I originally found the idea on Pinterest but when I couldn’t find the exact ingredients, I had to add lib. This is what I came up with.

Spacing them in every other spot leaving room so the flowers wouldn’t stick together. Then, I whipped together the lemon packet from Krusteaz Lemon Bar box and poured it into the flower tarts. Popping into 350 degrees oven for 8-10 … [Read more...]
