It's true, I've made just about everything from a cake mix it's like a crazy challenge I've given myself or something. Normal people see a cake mix used to make easy cake or cupcakes, I see a chance to be creative or insane - however you want to look at it really. I've made cake mix cinnamon rolls, pie crust, puppy chow, dip, cookies, fudge....I'm sure I'm leaving some out but you get the point! ... [ read more... ]

I have the cutest Valentine's day treats to share with you guys today! Once again I've teamed up with the cuteness queen Angela from Hello, Cuteness! to bring you guys a fun and unique Valentines treat and printable(s). A few weeks ago I had this crazy idea to make cute little peas for Valentine's day to say "Peas Be My Valentine". I know veggies for Valentine's day?? But Angela didn't even blink ...

Snickers Cupcakes
I have this little thing for turning well loved treats into cupcakes, it's something about the challenge of taking certain ingredients and recreating them in cupcake form that makes me happy! Last year I discovered you can recreate the Snickers filling with two simple ingredients, and I just had to turn it into a cupcake. The first batch was gone before they even saw a camera...and what better ... [ read more... ]

Mocha Toffee Brownies
It's Friday...and I think we could all use a little more chocolate and mocha in our life. Why not celebrate with some brownies right, even better, how about super easy brownies, that will have you reaching for more. I actually made these brownies right before we moved to the desert. We were headed over to a friends house for one last get together and I was scrambling to find something to make - ... [ read more... ]

You guys already know our girls are Disney princess CRAZY, so it was only natural they fell head over heels in love with Frozen.

Oreo Truffles
Oreo truffles....where do I begin! I've been making Oreo truffles for several years, and they've quickly become one of the most requested treats around here (by "here" I mean all the states we've lived in the passed few years, and each circle or friend in said states, ha). While I've adapted them in my own ways, I can't claim them as my own...they've been around quiet some time. So I didn't really ... [ read more... ]

Red Velvet Puppy Chow
I've been on a mini puppy chow kick lately - my kids love it, the hubs love it, it's perfect to ship to the nieces and nephews, so easy to make, and well it's just flipping yummy! However, what keeps fueling my need for puppy chow is all the new flavors of candy melts "aka chocolate wafers". It use to be they just came in colors but now they have flavors as well! I love adding flavored chocolate ... [ read more... ]

Inside Out Buckeyes
Peanut butter buckeyes have been a favorite since childhood for me. For some awful reason my mom only made them around Christmas, then she froze them only to be pulled out for the Christmas family dinners. Oh. The. Torture. But it was always something to look forward to, and they were always gone first. This year, I didn't get the chance to go home and enjoy my mom's peanut butter buckeyes, but I ... [ read more... ]
