Number Five: Peanut Butter Fudge Treats
For those moments when you decide to kill your noisy neighbors by gifting them an epic sugar rush in the form of these super charged bars. Not a crime, right?
Number Four: Red Velvet Black and White Cookies
Because red dye makes everything… red velvety!
Number Three: Pumpkin Pie Bars
Why add rolling out pie crust to the monstrous holiday to-do list? Plus, butterscotch chips!? Success!
Number Two: Lemon Whoopie Pies
Two cookies brought together with cream cheese frosting!? Every meal, everyday? Ok!
Number One: Easy Cinnamon Roll Muffins
Like a cinnamon roll loophole. Also, is it weird that I always type cinnamon rolls as sinnamon rolls before correcting myself. Yea… that happens.

Thanks for bringing these 5 recipes out to look at again. Would it be strange to make those pumpkin bars in June? Possibly bring them to a 4th of July picnic and get a couple head turns? They sounds so good, I do not want to wait for its appropriate season :)

You had me at number 5!

Joy, you are the only blog that I think is worth reading- and I have one of my own so…
Annie- Apologize to Helen, Maggie Gyllenhaal was the actress- Helen was referring to the character she played: whose name in Stranger than Fiction was Ana Pascal. I’m sure you realize the difference.
la vie est belle
How did the brownie cookies not make the top 5??? We’ve made them at least 10 times. But I see now there are others to try. I’m in for Joy the Stranger than Fiction girl. Do you sing too?

You always make me want to bake! Yes, the lemon whoopie pies are heaven, going to make them again RIGHT NOW. :)
p.s. Helen: it was Maggie Gyllenhall, not Anna Pascale!

FABULOUS! Thanks so much for sharing! I’m drooling all over my keyboard… :)

Those all look amazing! I want to make those whoopie pies for real. But mini!
Michelle
Oooh I love the Top 5! I think I’ll start with #1 – they look scrumptious!

Yum! I want to share my cinnamon roll recipe that uses biscuit dough to cut down the wait time. I highly recommend using plain non-fat yogurt as the liquid. It gives the dough a nice tang to compliment the sweetness – also adding a little orange zest to the dough!

I think your filling with this dough will be killer. I love cardamom.

PB fudge treats for sure!

Those lemon whoopies are my favorite thing ever. I put them in the freezer to hide them from my family, but they taste SO good all cold and pillowy.

I love your red velvet cookies! I made them for friends and family – they were a huge hit!!

Those pumpkin bars are to die for! I love them. Have to make them again sometime soon. The cinnamon muffins look great too. Will have to try those.

I am proud to say I have made four of Top Five. Looks like I need to get on those pumpkin bars and complete the job.
