Pumpkin Spice Latte

With everyone in blogland raving over the pumpkin spice latte, I decided to search for the recipe and create it myself. Soooooooooooooo worth it! Found this recipe http://www.thekitchn.com/thekitchn/beverage/diy-pumpkin-spice-latte-096277 and went to work. I used canned pumpkin and strong coffee, and only 2 teaspoons of vanilla, (2 tablespoons, seemed like a lot), I didn't have any whipped cream so I skipped that and did add a bit of creamer. It was sooo good, I will definitely be making again soon. Now, I need to find a recipe to use up the rest of the canned pumpkin. Any ideas?

Peanut Butter & Chocolate

Ok, so the Peanut butter cup, cookie in a cupcake liners were delicious...I preferred them with no frosting or chocolate on top but to each his own. I was right about seeing them somewhere, Heather had them posted on her Pirates -n- Princesses facebook page and the recipe came from

http://cookiesandcups.blogspot.com/2010/08/peanut-butter-cookie-cups-white.html

Today, I realized I still had some peanut butter cookie dough left in the fridge, (would hate to waste it) so I turned to the ever so reliable sweet tooth fairy from http://www.pirates-n-princesses.blogspot.com/, she never disappoints. What do you know on her facebook page she has a link to these peanut butter cookies dipped in chocolate and then covered in powdered sugar. Wow, just like the puppy chow treat we all love. Anywho, had to try them...so good! I definitely would recommend these. I cheated, simply baked the PB refrigerated dough, dipped in milk chocolate (skipped the other ingredients) and dipped in powdered sugar...yum!
