Lemon Pudding Cakes Recipe: Perfect for Any Occasion
We had the sweet blessing this weekend of enjoying dinner at our daughter and son-in-law’s when they were hosting some of our precious missionaries. I love fellowship with my girls and their husbands in their homes. They are both terrific homemakers, cooks and bakers, and it’s a joy to watch them serve their families and others with their gifts.
When Alli invited us to join them for dinner, I asked what I could bring to contribute to the meal. She said she hadn’t planned anything for dessert, if I would like to make something sweet. I was happy about that!
She told me she was making baked chicken thighs, mashed potatoes, asparagus, carrots and rolls. Since it was going to be a filling menu, I wanted to bring something that tasted a little light. Suddenly, a recipe came to mind that I hadn’t made in a good while – Lemon Pudding Cakes.
Lightened up Blueberry Pound Cake
When I had a need last weekend for a dessert for a church gathering, I decided on a southern classic – Pound Cake! However, instead of the recipe that calls for a pound of butter, I went to a tried and true version that we have come to love from Cooking Light! It’s much lighter in fat, and it also includes blueberries, which makes it a perfect summertime dessert!

Peach Cobbler for Two
Because there are just the two of us eating most meals at our house, and because we try to eat healthy most days, I attempt to not keep sweets on hand! But when a celebration comes along, it seems that dessert is a special addition to the meal!
Recently on Father’s Day, I went to Taste of Home’s site to scroll through their recipes created specifically for two. I love that they offer scaled down portions! When I came across a small Peach Cobbler, I knew I had found the sweet treat we would enjoy! This was so easy and had amazing final results!

No One Will Know These Are Gluten-Free Brownies!
When I was ready to throw in the towel at making gluten-free desserts for my GF friends, I went to King Arthur to try one more recipe. I settled on Small Batch Brownies. You can make this recipe using regular all-purpose flour or gluten-free. I followed the recipe’s suggestion and used the Measure for Measure Flour. They were delicious! I loved them so much that I left a review saying, “This recipe is a keeper!”
I love that it makes four nice-sized brownies, rather than a large pan full. I was taking dinner to a gluten-free friend and only needed enough dessert for her and her husband. Perfect – all the way around!
