    Think cinnamon buns, but instead of a cinnamon filling, you have all the sugary cake batter flavor you’ve ever wanted!  Topped with sprinkles, of course. – – These are an easy little snack to whip up, and my goodness, they’re just de-lish!  They’re bite-sized, so watch out, because it’s so easy to say “Oh I’ll just have one or two” and find the whole pan–or two–gone in a flash!  Do I regret?  Nope. I always keep some funfetti cake batter on hand just for “cake-batter” flavored things.  I make them often enough (like cake batter pancakes or cake batter chocolate chip cookies) that…

    Happy Tyler-and-my-sister’s birthday!  (Yes, they have the same birthday: November 5th!)  I think these doughnuts are Tyler’s favorite thing of all time and it’s been three years since I’ve come into his life with full fattening potential. I like these doughnuts, but honestly if it was me personally, they’d be a touch too much work for something that doesn’t have chocolate.  They’re only too much work because I always think that I can cut up strawberries while they’re baking for the first two minutes.  DON’T DO THAT.  I’ve tried.  It takes way longer to dice up strawberries than you think.…

    Happy birthday to me!  That’s right, September 8th is my birthday!  And keeping in the tradition of making goodies for people’s birthdays…I couldn’t well leave myself hanging!  But since it was raining yesterday and I was too lazy to get some mint extract for mint chocolate chip cookies, I decided to go with what I had on hand and make some funfetti fudge!  I actually really like the funfetti cake mix in this because I like the sprinkles that come in it.  They’re crunchy and hold up well without being too hard or distracting from the cake-batter flavor!   This…

    So I was supposed to have volleyball tonight.  But lucky for you all, instead you get another recipe because it’s snowing and surprisingly dangerous for the less than 2″ of snow on the ground.  But it’s that wet, slippery kind.  I turned around before even going a mile to one of the major roads, and I passed at least 6 cars pulled over on the side of the road, and two in an accident right outside the complex.  Jeez.  And I don’t have an all-wheel drive vehicle, I have a sedan, but I also grew up in the Northeast and feel…

    These are yum and fun to pull out!  I found that the recipe I used (see below) was actually a bit sweet, and judging by my taste-test of the batter, I think the cookies lost some of their cake-batter-ness with the addition of the sugars.  No, I didn’t eat 4 cookies worth of dough … >.>.  Shhhhh.  Next time I think I’ll try leaving out the sugar. Or maybe make a full batch leaving all sugar out of one half, and adding only brown sugar to the other half.  Will have to do some experimenting.  I know all my friends…
