Today we made Cream & Spice Muffins, and the amazing aroma that it created in my home was enough to make me a fan! We are in the middle of major remodeling after the flood in our home, and the smell these muffins created was a nice distraction from the dust and construction chaos. These muffins are very light and would be perfect with a cup of coffee or tea. I must admit that I was out of allspice so I substituted pumpkin pie spice for the allspice (using 1 teaspoon instead of 1/2).
Tomorrow, I encourage you to let your kiddos help as we will be making a muffin that they are sure to love-Rocky Road Muffins. I am going to have to make sure my little helper doesn't eat all the marshmallows while we cook ;-).
"Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.
Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you."
