Corn Bread Bites

Like Pam, I am excited for Autumn to arrive. Last week we made my chili recipe which I posted last year, but needed something new to go with it.  We usually make Buttermilk Corn Bread, but I happened to find this recipe not long ago and needed a dish to try it out with, so that is what I did.
I use a mini muffin pan for this recipe which turned out perfect.  The kids thought these were great and had fun with the bite size portions!  A quick and easy side dish for chili or whatever you are having for dinner.

Corn Bread Bites

 from bakeorbreak.com

  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 1 Tablespoon sugar (I added 2 tbsp)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder (I omitted this)
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 1 (8 & 3/4 ounce) can cream-stlye corn
  • 1 large egg
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray mini muffins pans (recipe makes 36 muffins) and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and chili powder. In a separate bowl, combine cheese, sour cream, onions, corn, and egg. Add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened.
Spoon batter into muffin pans. Bake for about 10 minutes or until browned. Cool in pan for about 2 minutes. Then, remove from pans and cool muffins on wire rack.

Not Yo Mama's Banana Pudding (Re-post with a picture )

Does this dessert sound familiar to you?  I originally posted it last Summer, but didn't have a picture at the time.  I'm excited to be able to post this picture now so you can see how yummy it looks!  I first had this pudding at a BBQ last Summer.  One bite and I was hooked.  This fabulous pudding sits on top of a layer of bananas and is sandwiched between two delicious cookies. Does it get any better than that?  Banana pudding didn't used to be something I craved, but it definitely is now.  It is Heavenly!  Also, it's very easy to make.  So try it out sometime.  I bet you'll become a banana pudding fan too.

Royal Icing for Sugar Cookies

While I love my Scrumptious Sugar Cookie frosting , Royal Icing is the way to go for decorated cookies that harden enough to stack and package. It definitely takes more time and patience, but the end result is so satisfying! You can make such fun cookies without having to worry about the frosting coming off.  Royal Icing can get super hard, and while this is perfect for building Gingerbread Houses, it’s not so great when you want to actually eat the cookie. Not to worry though- adding in a little corn syrup helps the icing dry firm without being overly hard.  I also like to add in my favorite butter vanilla emulsion to make the icing extra yummy, cause at the end of the day it’s not enough to just look pretty!  There are a few different ways to make Royal Icing. My favorite method is using Meringue Powder. If you can’t find this or don’t want to buy it, you can use egg whites instead. Or, if you’re in a pinch you can make some with just powdered sugar and water. You can find some recip

Brown Butter Caramel Snickerdoodles

If you try one new cookie recipe this Fall, let it be this one!! I'm not kidding when I say that this is  one of the best cookies I've ever made.  They've already received rave reviews and comments such as, "Amazing!", and "Incredible!"  These are not your average snickerdoodle, not that I have anything against the traditional ones, they are made with browned butter and extra brown sugar for a rich caramel taste.  But wait, it also has a caramel center! And of course that classic chewy texture with a cinnamon/sugar coating.  I could eat these every single day. They are SO GOOD you guys!
