Graduation Time!
I’ve been invited to a plethora of graduation parties these past few weeks. And yesterday’s was really fun: it was a brunch party. I decided to make mini muffins, because muffins are quintessential brunch fare, and because mini muffins are so dang cute!
I also brought a date to the party.
His name is Muttsee, and I’ve had him my entire life. (It was a pajama-themed brunch, and I love getting into the spirit of theme parties. You can bet I wore my pajamas!)
Question of the Day:
Growing up, did you have a favorite stuffed animal or baby blanket?
Coming soon: ice cream, pancakes, and a Funfetti version of this.
omg, I`d like to try such a delicious-looking muffins!
Beans in desserts aren’t dumb! I made a smoothie yesterday with chickpeas, and it was fantastic.
My favorite stuffed animal was my Simba lion, and he came to the hospital when I had surgery at age 5. He even got his own hospital band!
Aww that reminds me of my American Girl doll. I thought it was SO cool that when she went to be fixed, she came back in a hospital gown!
Those who say beans in dessert are dumb are just ignorant to the fact that it tastes amazing! They’ll come around 😉 And growing up, I had neither. I had a doll that I carried with my everywhere. Her name was Suzie, and I think I still have her. One time, my parents tricked me into thinking they sold her at a garage sale and I was inconsolable.
A pajama-themed brunch sounds so cute & fun! And chocolate chip cookie dough is pretty much the best flavour for anything 😀
Ohkay beans in desserts equal amazing (hello black bean brownies??)
I wish I had mini muffin tins 🙁 Could I use the recipe with a standard 12 muffin tin?
I’ve had a tweety bird stuffed animal ever since I was born ( its never been my date, but it has had play dates with my Barbies before haha!).
I bet you could! I know that one commenter made muffins out of my blondie recipe, so I don’t know how this would be any different.
The only thing I’d caution is to not take them out right away after they come out of the oven. I tried to take a mini muffin out when it was still hot, and it fell apart. So wait like 20 minutes.
Aww I love mini muffins – they’re so cute! But, not as cute as Mustee!! I had a bear called Brownie Pattern. I named him that because he was brown and had patterned feet – I was simple minded hehe 🙂
I had a pig stuffed animal that I loved so much that his stuffing was popping out. I still have him!
What is funny is that I never gave him a name — he was always just called “the pig”
My sister’s favorite stuffed animal was (is!) a pig too. She named him Wilbur, so one year for her birthday I got her Wilburetta :).
These look great. I especially like the top photo. I haven’t tried beans in desserts yet, but it doesn’t really sound weird to me – just different. Now that I’m trying to eat mostly gluten-free, there’s even more of a reason to give it a go. The person who said it was stupid clearly just doesn’t like trying new things.
Ahhhh yum! Chocolate chip is the BEST. I have tons of BabyCakes chocochip cookies in mah house and they are sooo good!
I always tried to have a favorite stuffed animal or blanket but could never hold onto one long enough…I’d get bored and move onto a different one too soon!
BAH! I have a Muttsey too!!!!
And FYI, I’m currently doing a sugar-free month (nothing, not even stevia or xylitol) and your Snickerdoodle Blondies will be my healthy break at the end! I’m Paleo, though, so I plan on making them with coconut or almond flour and maple syrup instead of brown suga. I’ll let you know how they turn out :)!
Ooh definitely let me know! And good luck! 🙂
