Fresh homemade donuts are a rare treat around our house. They take quite a bit of time, but the whole family loves them! Yes my title is melt in your mouth, because well they are. Fresh warm donuts are amazing friends! I’m a huge fan of warm glazed donuts and Dunkin Donuts’ Chocolate kreme filled donuts. So those are the two types I’m giving you the recipe for today. If you like it topped with chocolate/maple/vanilla icing though just take the base donut recipe and make it your own. Sprinkles would be fun for a kids sleepover!

Intestines Pizza and Bones Breadsticks
As a fun weeknight meal for my kiddos this week I made intestines-shaped pizza and bone-shaped breadsticks! The kids thought it was so silly and fun they loved it. These would be great served at a Halloween party or just any day for a spooky meal.
Best Yeast Rolls
I don’t usually like to title anything as the “best” anything. Yet, these yeast rolls are not only great tasting but also easy to make and versatile. When I say great tasting I mean there are never left overs… ever. When I say easy to make I mean they take very little time (aside from rising time) with simple ingredients and directions. When I say versatile I mean the dough can be made into a loaf, or used in lots of other recipes calling for bread dough. They are also great frozen!!! Yes I said frozen. I like to make a big batch and once I finish making them into balls before the second rise I freeze them on a baking sheet (not touching). Once frozen I put them in a gallon sized freezer bag and pop them out of the freezer and into the oven anytime I would like to add fresh yeast rolls to our meal. This works really well if you live alone or with just one other person. When Eric and I were first married we were together 3 1/2 years with no children. I would make these and have a freezer bag full so I could grab 4 or 5 out for dinner with no prep! So nice. Also if you have to cook a huge meal for Thanksgiving or something like that these are simple to make ahead and freeze saving lots of prep time on the day of. My mom has been making these rolls for me since I was a small girl and I will continue to make them for many years to come. Continue reading “Best Yeast Rolls”

This recipe is always a big hit whenever I take it anywhere or have it for breakfast at our house when we have company.
