almost identical,without the
powdered sugar)

Last night, at the request of a birthday tyrant for "something raspberry," I whipped up a raspberry buckle ala Martha Stewart. You can find the recipe here. It was super duper easy and even more delish. I served it with fresh whipped cream. It was a huge success and led the group of us to discuss future buckles. Marion berries were mentioned, which would be yummy. I'm thinking dark chocolate and sour cherries. Or rhubarb. Martha has a peach buckle recipe that calls for cinnamon and almonds (yum!). There will definitely be more buckles to come...
