Mini Cinnamon Crumb Cups

Tina46 Comments

Crumb cakes are one of my favorite things on earth.  I always say that I could eat the crumbs by themselves because I love them so much.  Can you see where I’m going with this?  Oh no she didn’t?  Um, yes, I did.  I decided to make a crumb cake that skips the cake part.  Don’t get me wrong, cake is yummy, but sometimes a girl just wants the crumb part. These bite size cups are filled with 100% crumbs and topped with miniature cinnamon chips to make them a little more interesting.

Ham and Potato Soup

This past weekend was cool and I was in the mood for a cozy soup to warm me up.  I seem to be on a soup kick lately.  If you love a classic baked potato with toppings then you’ll love this creamy soup loaded with chunks of potatoes and ham.

Cornbread and Spanish Olive Spread

Tina20 Comments

What goes better with soup, crackers or bread?  This has been an ongoing discussion between me and my husband for the past few months.  I can go both ways, but when we have guests over I like to put out bread because I feel funny putting out a basket of crackers.  I’ve been making a lot of soups lately (if you couldn’t tell from previous blog posts) so I figured this was a good time to whip up some cornbread to go along with it.  With this delicious cornbread in the house, neither one of us is reaching for boring …

Pumpkin Doughnut Holes

Tina42 Comments

I love doughnuts and pumpkin flavor so these pumpkin doughnut holes are a match made in heaven.  I’ve made Mini Powdered Sugar Doughnut Muffins and German Chocolate Cake Doughnuts.  Both were based on recipes from Sally at Sally’s Baking Addiction.  (She has a bazillion awesome recipes so you have to go check her out if you haven’t already.)  These pumpkin doughnut holes are also a variation from Sally.  She’s officially my “doughnut baking guru.”     🙂  Thank you so much, Sally! These doughnut holes are full of great pumpkin spice flavor and covered with cinnamon powdered sugar. Pumpkin Doughnut Holes Recipe (Makes 34 doughnut …

Baked Chili

Tina46 Comments

My husband and I are big fans of chili, especially The Perfect Chili recipe.  I could be partial since it’s a recipe that we created.     😉  That recipe makes a huge batch so it’s an awesome make-ahead meal that reheats wonderfully right out of the freezer.  Besides the obvious bowlful of chili, you can eat it in so many different ways, like on top of a hot dog or a baked potato or stirred into mac n’ cheese.  Which got me thinking…  what’s another way to enjoy chili? This baked chili has layers of pasta, delicious chili, sour cream, provolone, and mozzarella …
