TeXaS RoAdHoUsE CiNnAmOn HoNeY BuTtEr!


Hey There, so today I'm gonna share quite possibly the most delicious recipe ever! Well as far as butter goes anyway haha. I'm pretty sure even Paula Deen herself would be proud of this butter! Its the super duper top secret recipe to Texas Roadhouse Cinnamon butter... and its so easy!! All you need is a pint jar, 2 sticks of butter, 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 cup of honey, and 2 tsp of cinnamon. (I'm pretty sure y'all have that in your pantry right now!)

1. Place butter in a mixing bowl, room temp works the best so its easy to mix!

2. Pour in honey & mix together until you have a paste mixture.
3. Add powdered sugar in small amounts while mixing.

4. Add cinnimon to mixture & whip together until its fluffy and holds a peak.

5. I used a canning funel and poured my mixture into a pint ball canning jar.

6. You can certainly add a fun tag & a ribbon and give with rolls as a gift!!...this would especially be awesome for neighbor gifts for the holidays, or to sell in smaller jars at a bake sale!!                            
       
ENJOY  LICKING SOME BUTTER!! =D

fastest CaRaMeL aPpLeS ever!


Hey There
! so I'm going to share a super fast super duper easy & delicious CARMEL APPLE 
recipe with ya! 

1. I started with 5 granny smith apples... something about the sour with the sweet is just delicious. 
2. Wash all five of the apples off, now my grandma told me the trick was to sand the apple just slightly to rough up the wax to insure that the carmel didnt just slide right off ha ha.
3. Place a stick next to the core of the apple (some people get super fancy & go buy pointed kabob sticks) but little ol me just used Popsicle sticks cuz that's what I had on hand.
4. Melt your caramel....Now my grandma always made it from scratch and it was WONDERFUL, but I don't have that much patience time so I took the easy road and just bought packaged caramel. (Even better I got the kraft caramel bits, cuz these little guys are in balls and all ready to just jump in your pan... you don't even have to unwrap them)
5. I think my caramel took close to 5 minutes to get all warm and bubbly and ready for dippin' but depending on your stove it might go even faster, although I would recommend keeping it on med/low heat because it will burn if you try to rush the process.

6. Then after they are all coated with caramel and had been sitting a good 5 minutes I melted some white Almond Bark in the microwave, placed it in a zip-lock baggie and cut the tip to get a really pretty drizzle over the caramel. 
7. You can certainly add sprinkles if you have them, I couldn't find all of mine so I just left them plain. 

NOW GO ENJOY YOUR APPLES, THEY'RE ALMOST A HEALTHY SNACK! ha ha =D

DiEt CoKe BrOwNiEs !!

Hey There... so today im gonna blow your mind!! ... you ready for it? DIET COKE CAKE! yep you heard me right, cake made with nothing but diet coke (genius right) well I was searching around on the internet & found this recipe for diet coke cake & it might have possibly changed the way I bake cake FOREVER!....and hopefully it does the same for you too! (because lets be honest now you can eat double the slices) =D

1. Bake cake or brownie according to box directions but instead of adding water, oil, & eggs ... add 1 can or a cup and a half of your favorite diet beverage.... one more awesome thing about this recipe (that is if you can handle any more awesome-ness for one day, is that you can now eat the batter and not have to worry about raw eggs!!...I LOVE rainbow chip cake mix with diet 7 up & dip your teddy grams into it yummmmmy!

2. The batter for brownie mix should be slightly runnier than normal, but that's ok, bake for allotted time plus about 6 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
3. I always like to finish mine of with a little whip cream... if you get the light version that only adds 20 calories... the brownies should now be about 105 calories a slice! 

HAVE FUN EATING YOUR NEW SKINNY BROWNIES !!

FaLL cAkE bALLs !!

Hey Y'all so today I have a modified cake pop tutorial for ya... I'm sure everybody out there has done cake pops at least once...but for those tiny few of you that haven't... today's your lucky day! So we're talken about pretty easy stuff here and it will look like you spent a zillion hours on these little babies...you'll want to start off with a regular cake mix, almond bark, frosting, and sprinkles that's it folks ( I'm telling ya it couldn't get much simpler).And the super duper thing about cake balls is you can do them with any cake batter in any color with any sprinkles I pretty much just saved you a lot of time when it comes to finding the perfect tiny appetizers for your parties...you can thank me later ha ha
1. Mix your cake mix as the directions say and bake the cake in a regular 9x13 in pan
2. After cake has cooled crumble it up into small bits and dump in bowl
3. Mix in the frosting flavor of your choice, and this is the fun part because you can do it with your hands until it makes a paste like mixture... I only used about half of my container of frosting.
4. Take a melon baller and collect a small bit of the dough and place on cookie sheet, repeat this process until all the dough is gone
5. Place in the freezer for a few hours until the balls are firm.
6. Once the balls are fully frozen melt the almond bark and dip the balls into the melted chocolate, then add sprinkles as you like
There ya have it some super yummy fall cake balls that would be soooo easy to duplicate for all you holiday parties! =D
