Feel Good Friday- Happy Birthday!

This is a special Feel Good Friday. It happens to be my fiancés birthday. He is away for work so we already had a mini celebration. When he returns home however, he can expect a batch of these baked alaska cupcakes waiting for him. He is obsessed with cupcakes & ice cream so these are perfect! Here is to hoping I can whip these up no problem this weekend! 

Thanks To Sandee for the recipe & pictures. Check out her blog here. 

Choco-nana-fun

My soon to be sister-in-law is in town & the baking bug had bit us, hard. Searching the house for anything & everything we could throw into a bowl we came up with the idea of muffins. Not just your plain ordinary muffins, choco-nana-fun muffins! We used this recipe but made a few minor adjustments.

{We added one extra spoon full of oil, substituted the chocolate chips for dark chocolate shavings, & sweetened it up with 1/4 cup of agave nectar}

{There were not paper liners to be found so we greased the pan with vegan butter and added flour to create a non-stick surface}

{Instead of making 12 Giant muffins we opted for 15 smaller ones} 

 {We dusted the top with powder sugar to make them all perrrrttty}

{Ta-daaaaaaaaa!} 

{Red wine  & warm muffin = delightful}

Two days later they are all gone... didn't last long!
