These double chocolate muffins are so good you will only think they taste like a lot of calories. These double chocolate muffins are delicious and with a teaspoon of cinnamon, they taste double chocolatey! What type of chocolate chips should I use in double chocolate muffins? Feel free to use milk or dark chocolate chips.  You can even use Lily’s sugar free chocolate chips! This...

My three favorite things in one muffin - banana, chocolate and peanut butter! Five points, but worth every one.

If you’ve been following along for a week, a month, a year or all ten years I’ve had this blog, then you know I love cheese.  All the cheese – goat cheese, mozzarella, ricotta, burrata – the list goes on.  I am pretty sure there isn’t a cheese I don’t love.

I made muffins over the weekend. Not just any muffins – apple coffee cake muffins!  OMG, these are hands down the best muffins I have ever made.  They taste just like coffee cake to me.   I made a batch on Friday night to take to my bosses daughters field hockey game on Saturday for them to take home.  I have a 9 muffin holder so...

My daughter and her husband are obsessed with Starbucks and typically go at least once, if not twice a day.   They love the vanilla bean scones.
