Maple French Toast Muffins

Maple French Toast Muffins

If we’re going to get technical, these Maple French Toast Muffins are more like a Maple Bread Pudding in muffin/cupcake form. But I think these are splendid for a weekend breakfast, so I am sticking with the “Maple French Toast Muffins” name. You can thank me later. A couple weeks ago my kids brought home two bags full of random types of rolls from school. I had so much bread on my hands and I didn’t think we would be {Read More}

Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Cake

Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Cake

I’m going to be honest with you right now. When I set out to make this fabulous dairy filled dessert I was hoping to create one killer Strawberry no-bake Cheesecake. But sometimes mistakes in recipe development can turn into beautiful disasters.

If I had to pick my all time favorite dessert it would be a cheesecake. Any sort of cheesecake will do.

So, to continue with my “Birthday Week” theme, I decided to make one heck of a cheesecake – in dip form. It had to include that delicious {Read More}
