Not quuuuuiiiiite a Recipe Find

As you can tell by the title, this isn't quite a recipe find...more of a...tip.
Okay, so have you ever had the sudden urge for a muffin?  
 {No? Really? Not once have you had an inexplicable desire which could only be quenched by a muffin? ...Well, just pretend. For me.}
                                              ......
                                          *crickets*
                                              ......
Sooo, where were we?
Ah, yes. You want a muffin, but you don't want to make an entire batch. {well, of course you won't be able to get out of making the whole batch, but...just imagine you're you. From the future. At a time where you've already made the whole batch}

So, here is my solution! {but first a lovely strawberry muffin}

{via}

• First, find a basic muffin recipe, you know,a sort of sugar cookie of the muffin batter world  :){this one or this one should probably work}
• Second, whip up the batter
• Third, empty the batter into a large plastic refrigerator/food container.

Some thing you can add to make it even more tasty:

• blueberries
• chocolate chips
• cinnamon sugar
• peanut butter :)
• jam
• to make it "healthier" you can also add a bit of ground flax seed...
• strawberrrrries ...yummmm
• really anything I guess...

Whenever the mood strikes you, take out a small ramekin or even a mug, put enough muffin batter to fill it at least a third of the way, add your mix-ins. Microwave for 2-4 min. Enjoy! :)

So, I hope this helps! ...Just remember to make the batter in advance... :)

Okay, this recipe is pretty good, we made it for Christmas, and they were just about everyone's favorite!

                   
                       OREO TRUFFLES
Ingredients:

• 1 package of Oreos-any kind
• 1 package of cream cheese {regular stuff, not the whipped}
• one package of melting chocolate

You will need a food processor and a mixer for this recipe.
Put the Oreos in the food processor and "process" till they are fine crumbs.  Put crumbs and cream cheese into mixer and mix till cream cheese is fully incorporated.
Spread a sheet of wax paper on a cleared counter or table and use a very small cookie scoop to scoop them out. Don't worry about separating them as you would cookies; you won't be baking them, therefore, they won't spread! Put them in the freezer for a few hours or until they aren't as soft.
When you think they are hard enough, take them out, and start melting your chocolate! You can use a chocolate melter, or a double boiler {if you don't have either, melt in a glass measuring cup in the microwave, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn}. As soon as the chocolate is melted, dip a cookie ball in the chocolate and make sure it's completely covered. Don't leave it in the chocolate for too long, or else it will start to melt.
Carefully place on another sheet of wax paper and let cool.
Happily eat. :)
Notes:

• You can use regular Oreos, mint Oreos, white Oreos, or even Nutter Butters :)
• Likewise, you can use white chocolate, milk chocolate, or dark chocolate.
• If your house is warm, it would be a good idea to, once they are frozen, plop them into a plastic container and slip in the freezer, only taking a few out as you dip them.
• It would also be a good idea to store them in the refrigerator {or if the outside is cold, the "outdoor refrigerator" ;)} as they are made with cream cheese.

PS: remember this post? Well, I found a page with ten different mug cake recipes!!!!
PSS: Thanks so much to my new follower, memory!

Okay, so the other day I was in the mood for some chocolate chip cookies. But it was late, and when I make cookies, I usually take hours. Sooo...I almost gave up my hope for the yummy goodness.
                                  ...Until I remembered THIS recipe.   
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Mug Cake


As the name suggests, it's more cake-like than cookie-ish. But I'm fine with that :)
The recipe is pretty versatile, I think, so you can add other ingredients like vanilla extract, cocoa powder, cinnamon, or peanut butter. :)
It's really quick, and while it's not the best cake in the world, it'll satisfy your sweet tooth. :)
Tips: 

• Make sure the butter is really soft, or else you won't be able to mix it well.
• Also make sure you mix the butter in evenly, and make sure there isn't much near the top.  I didn't, and it ended up with a small pool of butter on top. :P
• You should probably add at least a pinch of salt to it, it somehow works with the flour to make it turn out better, and it even improves the taste of the chocolate! :)
• If you want to add cocoa powder, I would advise measuring the flour into a separate bowl, taking out a tablespoon or so of flour, and adding in a tablespoon {or the same amount as you took out of the flour} of cocoa powder. Then mix it up and add it to the rest! :)
• I would also advise that you add vanilla extractb. 'Cause vanilla makes everything better, right?
• If you want to make peppermint flavor, just add a splash of peppermint extract instead of vanilla. {Though make sure it says Peppermint and not just Mint or Spearmint.}
• Oh, and also, this makes a pretty big peice of cake, it'll fill up a medium sized mug. So, you might want to share it with someone :)

Have a good day, girls, and make sure to try this!

Heya girls! Check out this recipe, it is soooo good. Chocolate chip pumpkin cookies. They're kind of fluffy and cake-like rather than cookie like, but they are sooo good....if you like pumpkin that is....
In mine, I don't put the nuts, and I put 4 drops of red food coloring in the batter to make the cookies orange. Oh, and I also put in about a teaspoon of nutmeg. 

Okay, that's all!!!

{Oh, and that pic isn't mine, I got it off the website:}
