Creamy Peanut Butter Dip

I try to balance out my treat intake by eating healthy snacks during the day, but finding healthy and yummy snacks that I don't get bored with is a challenge.  I had this recipe on the back burner for a while but didn't get around to trying it for a few weeks after I bought the yogurt.  I didn't have too high of expectations for it so I was taken by surprise by how much I liked this!  Brynlee loved this as well so I am sure we'll be making this quite a bit.  It's so yummy and packed with protein so it will keep you fueled for a while.  If you don't like peanut butter or have allergies, just omit it and you'll  still have a delicious vanilla yogurt fruit dip.

 *Makes four 2 TBSP servings

 Ingredients:

 1 5.3 oz container of Oikos Non-Fat Greek Vanilla Yogurt
2 TBSP Peanut Butter
1/2 TBSP Honey
1/8 tsp cinnamon

 Directions:

 Mix ingredients together.  Serve with apples, bananas, or pears.  Place any leftover in the fridge in an airtight container.  

 P.S.  The yogurt is awesome as a healthy snack  by itself too!  If you haven't tried out Greek yogurt yet you need to!  Even                     my 4 year old prefers it over regular yogurt and it is a lot healthier for you.  My favorite brands are Oikos and Chobani.

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!
