It’s the first Wednesday in July and that means we are close to a long holiday weekend (for those of us in the U.S. anyway). My husband and I will be spending time with the family. Family and food… what can be better? Of course I’ll be bringing some goodies to our family celebrations. I can’t wait to share with you a cookie recipe that will be the perfect addition to any July 4th party. Today, I’m sharing something with you that is ideal to serve at a BBQ linner (i.e. lunch/dinner) and for breakfast (you know, for those overnight guests …

Light Mini Blueberry Muffins
Ah, the infamous blueberry muffin. Do you find yourself in search of the perfect one? You know, it’s like looking for the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe or the perfect take-out pizza place.

I love munchkin doughnuts from Dunkin’ Donuts (who doesn’t, if you’re familiar with the chain, doughnut holes for those that don’t). I especially love the ones covered with powdered sugar. Shocker, I know. For those of you who know me or have read other posts of mine, I’m kind of obsessed with powdered sugar. 😉 While I frequently by Dunkin’ coffee, I rarely treat myself to their doughnuts. They are mad tasty but they are not a friend to my …
