Sweets for a Saturday #17

I'm so glad that Blogger is back on so that Sweets for a Saturday could go up as planned. It's definitely been a good week. I just found out that I passed the Hawaii State Bar Exam. Yippeee!!! That's a load off my mind and I'm now ready to celebrate by looking at all the delicious things that you've been creating in your kitchens this week. First off, your Top 7 (with a four-way tie for 4th) and then we'll get this party started.

1. Mocha Tiramisu Cupcakes - uTry.it


2. Lemon Bliss Truffles - Awaken Your Senses



3. Fifth Avenue Bars - A Well-Seasoned Life


4. Caramel Oat Bars - Hannah in the Kitchen


4. Oreo Swirl Brownies - Brandy's Baking


4. Three-Layer Lemon Bars - My Five Men


4. Mini-Donut Cupcakes - Let's Get Cookin'



The Rules:
  1. Please link up to the URL of your post, not the URL of your main blog. When it asks for "Name", type in the name of your treat.
  2. Please leave a link back to this post in your post or Grab My Button.
  3. Share your delicious sweets from this week. If you've made more than one during the week, feel free to link them all up.
  4. Leave me a comment telling me that you've linked up.
  5. Please visit at least two others and comment on their wonderful additions to this party.

    I'm glad Blogger is back in business. I was worried, too. Just posted my Peanut Butter Texas Sheet Cake. Hope everyone likes it!

    Happy to see my Fifth Avenue Bars in the top recipes this week!
