Coffee Cake Muffins

Coffee Cake Muffin Inside-2

Food is nostalgic. Many dishes from my childhood still to this day bring me back to the very time and place I was when enjoying them. On weekends in grade school, I would pride myself in making Betty Crocker Cinnamon Streusel muffins “from scratch” (aka- from the box). The mix included a little cinnamon packet I would knead with my fingers to evenly mix the sugary goodness inside before adding it to the muffins and baking. MAN, those muffins were good. I think I would switch it up between making those and the “flaky” Pillsbury biscuits.

Buffalo Chicken Soup

I hear there is a big game this weekend. I also hear it’s supposed to be SOUPER cold.

Chocolate PB Oat Bars

I don’t even LIKE oatmeal, and yet I still felt compelled buy ALL THE OATS. If things got really bad, at least we could eat oats. Well. A lot of what we refer to as the “pandemic pantry,” is still stocked, and I think it’s time to start using those items. So I thought to myself, “What can I make with oats that isn’t oatmeal?” Enter onto the scene, these sweet and sticky chocolate peanut butter oat bars.
