I HAVE to share this recipe. I totally wish I could say it's mine, but it's not at all. It's the Pioneer Woman recipe. I can not even explain how soft the "bread" part is. It's not that hard, chewy dough that a lot of cinnamon rolls tend to have. The frosting is MAPLE! My favorite!! This recipe was probably the best thing I've ever googled. Thanks to my client, Laura, for the suggestion. She's awesome. I just wanted to share this recipe with everyone because it is tried and true. It also doesn't take near as long as some other homemade cinnamon roll recipes that I've tried. Totally worth it to take the little time these do take to make them. Hands down, winner winner chicken dinner.

Autumn Cake Dip
This is a spin off of the Cake Batter Dip. I love fall. I love all fall flavors. It was finally below 90 degrees today. It was cloudy, windy, rainy, stormy at times, and around 65 degrees. Perfect. So I needed to make something fall like. Ta-da! I give you Autumn Cake Dip!
-1 box Spice Cake Mix
-1 container (about 2 cups) Cool Whip (I used fat free)
-1 cup plain non fat yogurt
-1 t. maple extract
Mix cake mix and yogurt together first with a spoon. Add in cool whip. Stir in maple. Serve with cinnamon graham crackers!
I made a smaller version of this so I didn't have a giant bowl of dip sitting around my house waiting to make a permanent home on my thighs...even though I used fat free cool whip and yogurt.. there's still calories in this stuff. Or is there.. Eh let's not spend too much time on that tiny fact. Maybe if you get up, dip your cracker, go back to the couch, eat it, and then repeat, it would be kind of like celery and that whole negative calorie thing or whatever. Ok I'm tired and babbling. Go make this dip and thank me later.

I've been seeing this a lot on pinterest and finally decided to give it a try. After making it as directed, I made a few changes that I think made a huge difference!

-1 small container (about 2 cups) Cool Whip (I used fat free)
-1 c. plain non fat yogurt
-1 t. clear vanilla extract
Mix cake mix and yogurt together with a spoon. Add in cool whip. Add in vanilla.
Serve with animal crackers, vanilla wafers, graham crackers, fruit, etc.
