Coconut Banana Muffins

In between all the rain showers, we have had some pretty nice days.  This past Sunday was one of them.  My husband and I actually took the kids to our community pool.  They have been begging to go since it opened April 1.  Only the neighborhood kids ventured out into the not so warm water.  The adults were all lounging around in the hot sun.  I am looking forward to some summer weather.  For now, I will have to do with some summer inspired treats.  These Coconut Banana Muffins with Tequila Lime Glaze fit the bill perfectly.

Cotton Candy Oreo Truffles

Have you guys tried the Cotton Candy flavored Oreo cookies yet?  They aren't bad.  My kids love them.  The cream does taste like cotton candy, but not overly sweet.  I thought I'd make them even better by turning them into truffles.  I even made some cotton candy flavored candy melt to cover them in.  These Cotton Candy Oreo Truffles could be a hit at your kid's birthday party.  Or you could just keep them all for yourself.

Churro Wonton Cups

Most people go south for spring break, but we went north.  It was nice to spend Easter with our family and see our friends, however, I could have done without the cold rainy weather.  We had a few warm, sunny days when we got back home, and it felt so good.  Then the weather took a turn and we are back to cold, rainy weather down here too. Yuck! I needed a little pick-me-up to get me through this dreary week, so I made these cute, little Churro Wonton Cups.  They are kind of like the Churro Puff Pastry I made two years ago, but crunchier.  There are just never enough churro recipes in this world.  These are great for any Cinco de Mayo parties you may have coming up or just as a sweet pick-me-up to brighten your day.
