Twist on an old favorite- Key Lime Cupcakes


One of my favorite things growing up was my Gram O's Lemon Cupcakes.   It was the first recipe I posted when I started up this blog.   Now there are so many new cake mix flavors and pie fillings, the possibilities are endless.    I have a embarrassingly large collection.    For this particular version, I used Key Lime Cake mix and canned Key Lime Pie Filling.   Super easy and they disappeared quickly.

Instructions

  1. Prepare cake mix according to directions. Spray muffin tin with non-stick spray. Fill 12 lined muffin cups. Bake according to package time. Allow cupcakes to cool completely.
  2. Using knife held at a 45 degree angle, cut cone shape out of top of each cupcake (like making a lid on a jack o lantern). Trim the point off the cone shape.

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites

I'm a huge fan of the Dunkin Donuts Power Breakfast sandwich, so when I started seeing ads for the new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites I stopped in and gave them a try.  They were delicious, but of course, I knew I could make them at home. 

Stuffed Waffles

I wasn't sure I was going to blog these stuffed waffles since it was the first time I tried using the new iron but since I'd already taken the pics as I went I figured, why not? They aren't perfect but they are delicious!

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Bacon and Cheddar Omelet Bites

Since I already came up with a version of Dunkin Donuts new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites for myself, I decided to make the other variety that they are offering, Bacon & Cheddar, for my husband.
