With Peanut Butter Buttercream

Featured Love From The Oven Peanut Butter Ball Cupcakes-5111

We are huge peanut butter lovers in this house, but you don’t see a ton of peanut butter recipes on here because our daughter has a nut allergy.   We still eat it, but I don’t bake with it that often, which is a shame because it’ SO good.  Buckeye Balls.  Peanut Butter Cups.  Chocolate + Peanut Butter.  It’s such a wonderful amazing perfect combo.   Every now and then I give in and whip something up… Something like chocolate cupcakes with {Read More}

April Fool’s Food & Recipe Ideas – Bites From Other Blogs

Apirl Fools Foods And Recipes

I’m not sure how, but April is just days away.  I think I’d like a recount, because I am certain that it can not be April yet.   If it was, then clearly I’d be prepared for things like Easter and my little one’s second birthday (both arriving in the first week).    Putting my issues with the calendar aside, April seems to think that it’s going to arrive on Sunday. Which brings us to April Fool’s Day.  A day to mess {Read More}

Let’s talk coconut.  I find it’s one of those things that people either like or don’t like and there isn’t much middle ground.  I fall into the like category.  No, wait, I fall into the LOVE category.  Lately I’ve been kind of coconut obsessed, so when McCormick asked if I would like to try making their Easy Coconut Macaroon recipe and share it with my readers and Pinterest followers (as well as a giveaway – keep reading!), obviously I was {Read More}
