This weekend we celebrate, remember, and embrace each other. Here are 15 Mother’s Day recipes to show mom how special she is, even if that mom is you. ♥

Scones

My scones recipe is a go-to for brunch. With over 15 varieties, I’m confident you’ll find one mom loves. Blueberry scones and chocolate chip scones are two favorites! Top scones with lemon curd (pictured above) for an extra special treat.

Raspberry Almond Crumb Cake

Readers obsess over this raspberry almond crumb cake recipe. I’m not exaggerating! I love the flavors! Not a raspberry fan? Try my sour cream crumb cake instead.

Madeleines or Petit Fours

Light & airy, my homemade madeleines feature a delicious buttery lemon flavor. But if mom is more of a cake person, she would love petit fours. They’re a little more involved to assemble, but I have a video tutorial that walks you through each step.

Almond Poppy Seed Tea Cakes

Filled with sweet almond flavor and drizzled with a light lemon glaze, these almond poppy seed tea cakes are extra special for an extra special mama.

Mini Cheesecakes

9 individual mini cheesecakes are not only easier than a full cheesecake, they take half the time to prepare. If you’re feeding a crowd, try my classic cheesecake recipe or no-bake cheesecake.

Rose Cupcakes

Little cupcake bouquet with rose cupcakes is fun to make and I guarantee your cupcakes have never looked more lovely. You can even try two-toned buttercream roses, too!

Easy Cinnamon Rolls

The easiest cinnamon rolls! They’re perfect for yeast beginners and only require 1 rise. Other cinnamon roll favorites: My overnight cinnamon rolls and cinnamon roll cake.

Lemon Berry Trifle or Lemon Blueberry Cake

Lemon berry trifle is the most dazzling layered dessert that you can prep ahead of time!!! But with the same flavors, you can prepare a lemon blueberry cake instead. It’s one of my favorite cakes.

Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Let’s face it, all mom wants is chocolate. These chewy chocolate chip cookies are the most popular cookie recipe on my website! Or maybe she just wants a giant cookie all to herself? Make my giant monster M&M cookie.

Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes

One happy stack of Greek yogurt lemon poppy seed pancakes for mom on Sunday morning! They’re fluffy and incredibly flavorful, made with whole wheat flour and protein-packed yogurt.

Mini Vanilla Pound Cakes

This mini pound cakes recipe is perfect for your mini bundt cake pan or even a loaf pan. Just like my regular pound cake recipe, these mini pound cakes are moist, flavorful, and wonderfully buttery. Top with raspberry icing and sprinkles for extra pizazz, of course.

Pink Party Donuts!

True love at first bite. Pink party donuts begin with a vanilla cinnamon batter baked in a heart donut pan, topped with pastel pink glaze and rainbow sprinkles!

Chocolate Coconut Almond Tart (GF)

Made with only 7 simple ingredients, this chocolate coconut almond tart is naturally vegan and gluten free But you won’t even realize it! It’s decadent, fudgy, and very easy to make.

Homemade Strawberry Shortcake

Simple to prepare, the classic strawberry shortcake celebrates the season’s freshest flavors. And shows mom just how special she is.

Have a beautifully delicious weekend!
