Skinny Pumpkin Pie Cannolis

Let me first start this off with a fair warning from my husband. These are not filled with actual pumpkin pie. {apparently it came as a shock to him when he took a bite} I would also like to take this moment to clarify that these cute little things are not actual “cannolis” either.

Caramel Pecan Pie

150

My almost-two-year-old is driving me nuts. And not the “pecan” kind of nuts. She used to be this sweet little girl. She’s absolutely adorable, don’t get me wrong… but she has one heck of a scream to her. She was a binky kind of girl up until two weeks ago. I got so sick of her talking with her binky in her mouth that I tied it to a balloon and made her let it go. I’m mean. Apparently she’s trying to get {Read More}

It’s pie season folks! This recipe uses only butter, and no shortening. I found it real easy to make, simple to work with, and baked up to a flaky, delicious crust. A few things you’ll want to know when making pie crust is that it requires the butter to be cold. Really cold. I found the best thing to do is to take your butter out of the fridge and cut it into little pieces, place it in a bowl and put it {Read More}
