Welcome to featuring you!  Our Spotlight of the Week goes to The Jenny Evolution for sharing this scrumptious Weekend Breakfast Casserole.  We have a nice breakfast every weekend and I love when I find recipes to make/prep ahead of time.  This one will be perfect and I can't wait to try it.  Thank you all for sharing this week, it is greatly appreciated!

 

Blackberry Cheesecake Bars with Sugar Cookie Crust

 

This winter has been a rough one!  We've been snowed in for days, we've had arctic air temperatures, and to top it off, ice storms.  It hasn't been a very pleasant season at all, and I can't wait for Spring to get here.  Last week the kids were off school six days in a row, I couldn't get out to the store, and they were in the mood for a new dessert.  My supplies were running low and I had no idea what to make.  I looked in the pantry and fridge to see what I had and lo and behold Blackberry Cheesecake Bars were born.  I love how something so simple turns out to be so delicious; it really can't get any easier then this! 

Pumpkin Lofthouse Sugar Tarts with Maple Buttercream

I love lofthouse sugar cookies!  So I decided to make them into tarts, but not just any tarts...Pumpkin Tarts!  I took my recipe and instead of using the sour cream that's called for, I replaced it with pumpkin.  This gave the tarts just a subtle hint of pumpkin.  Then I topped them off with a maple buttercream frosting and sprinkled on a little cinnamon.  It all came together perfectly!  They're very simple to make and they turned out cute too :)  

Sugar Cookie Cupcakes

I make sugar cookies a lot at our house.  We love to frost ours with cream cheese frosting and they're usually decorated by four kids :) So when I saw these cupcake liners and picks I knew I wanted to whip up a batch, but wasn't sure what flavor to make.  Being that we love sugar cookies, I decided to make sugar cookie cupcakes!  

Marshmallow Cookie Pie

If you ever need a quick and easy dessert, this is the one! It starts with a simple sugar cookie dough that's filled with cream cheese and marshmallow fluff! Top it off with strawberries or whatever fruit you like. This is a great go-to dessert!
