Skinny Vanilla Cake Pops

January 7, 2015 Amanda Plott

Who doesn't love these sweet little treats on a stick?

Seriously.

I'm pretty sure that almost everyone had their first taste of a cake pop at Starbucks. Yeah, you know the ones I'm talking about too. The pinkalicious birthday cake flavor of pure heaven on a stick... and hell on your thighs.

I've attempted to make any versions of these over the years, and I will say that they are quite easy to make, but also very time consuming. It's definitely a labor of love though; mindless work that takes just about forever to do with a phenomenal end result.

And what better to devote your labor of love to other than your adorable child, right? My little girl is absolutely stuck on cake pops, so I figured it was long since time to get another of her favorites out there...

Spooktacular Whole Wheat Mini Pizzas

This post was brought to you by the makers of Fleischmann’s Yeast. I received compensation to write this post … but, all opinions expressed are my own.

These fun little pizzas are sure to fright and de{light} your family around Halloween. My daughter had so much fun helping me in the kitchen to make these perfectly spooky mini pizzas. Of course, as with most kids, she is a pizza aficionado... so the fact that she scarfed these pizzas down surely put a smile on my face!

But, I couldn't blame her. These little pizzas are... to die for. Muahaha!

Pun intended...

Skinny Maple Bacon Cinnamon Rolls

April 20, 2013 Amanda Plott

And so the blissful week of bacon inspired recipes continues!

These cinnamon rolls are the perfect morning treat. Reminiscent of pigs-in-a-blanket or pancakes with bacon. The house smelled absolutely wonderful while these were in the oven.

If you're not all about bacon, and I know that there are actually a few of you out there, you can definitely substitute the bacon for another ingredient such as dried fruit or nuts. Yum!...
