A sweet treat that comes together in no time at all, Mini Lemon Cherry Cakes are fruity and adorable!
Let’s talk about perfect potluck desserts…what’s your favorite thing to take? I like to take things that don’t take a lot of fuss and are simple to make and easy to transport. Chocolate Chip Butter Cake, Double Chocolate Rice Krispie Treats and Favorite Brownies from Scratch are a few of my personal faves. I made a batch of Mini Lemon Cherry Cakes recently and they were a big hit!
You can file this recipe under the ‘super easy’ category of your recipe box. Mix together a few pantry staples, add a dallop of cherry pie filling and bake. When they’re cooled, drizzle on a lemony glaze and you are done. I love the cherry and lemon together, so summery and delicious!
