Light Chocolate Chip Muffins

March 14th, 2014Tina50 Comments

I love muffins, I love chocolate, and I love chocolate for breakfast. If you’ve seen some of my recipes then this is not a shocker. A few weeks ago I challenged myself to try to make more healthy recipes, especially baked goodies. My quest started with some awesome Light Chocolate Chip Cookies. A couple of weeks ago, someone left me a lovely comment about the High Domed Chocolate Chip Muffins that I made last year. That got me in the mood to make them again, but instead I put my thinking cap on. Wouldn’t it be great to continue on my personal quest by making a …

Chocolate Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake

I think people fall into one of two categories with their feelings about birthdays. Either they want the whole world to know about it (generally reserved for kids I think) or they want to avoid them like the plague and make sure no one knows when they are or how many times they’ve happened (almost everyone else I think). Which category do you fall in? I’m solidly in the birthday avoidance and silence group. I recently had to bump that obnoxious age number again and as retaliation against the flow of time I am using that as an excuse to eat …

French Toast

Ah, February… the most romantic month of the year. I think romance comes in many forms. Perhaps it comes when your partner does a household chore, randomly, when it’s typically your responsibility. Maybe it’s when your best friend, who lives a few hours away, sends you a text saying they miss you. It’s not always about chocolate and flowers (although don’t get me wrong, I love that too). I’m the one who makes 98% of the meals in our home so for me, so when my husband voluntarily makes breakfast on the weekend, I feel like I’ve been swept off …

Double Chocolate Banana Bread with Peanut Butter Icing

A few weeks ago my youngest sister came over so that I could help her make Almond Biscotti for her boyfriend. Well, I mostly sat by and supervised. She did all the work. (Since that time, she came over again to make those same almond biscotti for her boyfriend’s family. Yup, they’re that good!) We talked and laughed so much. It was a great day in the kitchen. 🙂 I wanted to bake something for her to take home and I’d been looking for an excuse to make this quick bread. This is the best quick bread that I’ve made so far. Intrigued? This is a sweet …

Pumpkin Doughnut Holes

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 …
