Peanut Buttery Heaven Cupcakes
As I was thinking of a name to call these deliciously peanut butter cupcakes, the word heaven popped into my head. Why? Because that’s what my kitchen smelled like while these little guys were baking in the oven. My family is a bunch of peanut butter fanatics, so I can’t wait to let my brotherRead More

This time, I still used the lil’ smokies, but got some honey butter biscuits and sprinkledRead More
Chicken Cheese Ball
Here in the past couple of years, this has been the most talked about and requested appetizer that I ever make when it comes to gatherings. I joke that this is the way I can bribe my sister-in-law to come over, because she loves it so much. 😀 Literally, EVERY time this is present, I’mRead More
Brownie Cookies
These cookies are a great combination of cookie and brownie texture. Super, super yummy. My father-in-law’s birthday is coming up, and he loves any dessert with nuts in it. I tell him that he is what he eats. 😉 The last time I made these, it was just with nuts in them. This time, IRead More
