Triple Berry Cake Mix Muffins

Friday, May 26, 2023
These Triple Berry Cake Mix Muffins are bursting with fresh or frozen berries and are one of the easiest perfect muffins you'll ever make.

Our muffins are made starting with a cake mix with the addition of instant lemon or vanilla pudding, they bake up moist and tender.

Perfect for a red, white, and blue Patriotic Holiday party or just because they're so delicious!

They're even great as a dessert muffin just by adding a scoop of your favorite ice cream and a dollop of whipped cream.

The recipe comes together quickly using an electric mixer, folding in the berries, and baking in cupcake tins with or without liners.

I really love how interchangeable these muffins are and you can adapt them to any fruits you prefer using the same amount specified in this recipe.

We even included a streusel topping if you prefer a touch of delicious cinnamon-style coffee cake muffins!

Raspberry Oatmeal Bars

Thursday, July 13, 2017
These easy Raspberry Oatmeal Bars, are one of those easy-peasy recipes that's perfect when unexpected guests come for coffee.

One of the first cookie bar I ever made on my own as a child.

My dad and I would hardly leave a crumb for anyone else, they were just so delicious.

Raspberry was one of our all-time favorite flavors and these were quick to make in no time.

Here over 30 years later of making them, they're now a favorite of my grandkids.

It really is such an easy recipe and you can change the flavor jam to whatever you love.

I have done these with fig jam, blueberry, and cherry, and the favorite always comes back to raspberry.

You can't go wrong with these raspberry oatmeal bars. Come to take a look I promise you will love these and make them time and time again!

Berry Filling Recipe

Friday, May 13, 2016
I just got some wonderful fresh berries from my Blackberry and Raspberry bushes. I decided to make some berry filling that could be used in pies, topping for ice cream, added to pound cakes with whipped cream or even a filling for a turnover with puff pastry. This was a great filling I will make time and time again!



 Berry Filling Recipe :


(note I had lots of berries cut the recipe in half for less)

1 cup sugar or more if you like sweeter by taste

4 cups raspberries

3 cups blackberries (you can use blueberries also if you want triple berries I would do 3 cups red 2 cups black and 1 cup blue )

3 tablespoons cornstarch

2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca

1/4 teaspoon each salt and cinnamon

1 tablespoon butter

water if needed

Puree 1 cup berries combined or just the raspberries set aside.


In a medium saucepan add the puree, cornstarch, and tapioca. Place on medium heat. When it starts to boil add the sugar until dissolved and start to thicken it's just a few minutes. Add the salt, cinnamon, and butter. Fold in the berries gently. If too thick add a little water.


Use on cakes, cheesecake topping, two crusted pies on ice cream, tarts, cookies, turnovers or anything else you like.

All through my childhood I grew up with jam coconut cake and that was Dad's favorite cake.
Simple but really delicious when combined with a golden yellow or white cake, spread with jam topped with coconut.
We all loved coconut cream pie also, so I thought lets put all these flavors together! Coconut filling, golden cake, raspberry jam and shredded coconut!
Are you with me? Well here it is!
