I have SUCH a huge sweet tooth in the afternoons. I can’t be alone here. It’s so hard to not just grab a handful of cookies or chocolate! I love yogurt though, and generally don’t think of it as a dessert…unless it’s in one of these mini cream pie cups. Aren’t they cute? I had a bunch of these plastic cups leftover from a party and they are just the right size for an individual portion.

These mini cream pie cups would be the perfect dessert to serve at a shower or afternoon luncheon. They are simple, but so pretty at the same time. You can use whatever flavor of yogurt you’d like, but I like sticking with the pie flavors: banana cream, key lime, and lemon meringue. The tart from the lemon and lime flavors blend perfectly with the sweetness of the whipped cream.

I asked my son what he’d like for dessert for his birthday recently (my kids aren’t huge fans of cake) and he said, “Can you make a pie?” I asked him what kind and he asked for key lime. I told him I hadn’t ever made key lime pie before and he said, “How about those mini ones you made?” Haha, he was referring to these. I made them with key lime yogurt a few years back and he loved them. Using yogurt is a heck of a lot easier than making the real deal, but it’s best to make mini pies vs. a large one unless you plan on serving it frozen so that the slices keep their shape.

Mini Cream Pie in a Cup

This kid knows a good thing when he sees it. Anyti This kid knows a good thing when he sees it. Anytime my camera and tripod go up, he’s right there waiting. Today we made our favorite green smoothie. It’s all about balance—-just kidding. We all know that’s a lie. I have like 10 healthy recipes on my site and 800 breads and desserts. 😂

Tip: when buying produce, buy extra to freeze. I buy an extra pineapple, an extra package of grapes, an extra bunch of bananas and an extra bag of spinach and freeze them for smoothies. I slice everything up and freeze it on baking sheets then bag it up. It makes it easy to grab a handful to toss into a blender. You can freeze entire bags of spinach too and add a handful to smoothies. I always blend my spinach and water first then add the rest of the fruit. No little spinach chunks in the smoothie that way. 🙌🏻

This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother This cutie is working on a hat for her big brother for Christmas. We love this little set of round knitting looms. A great project to work on during Christmas break. She’s making herself a pink one after Christmas. We bought several colors of bulky yarn at Walmart for $2.97 each. Each skein makes 1 hat. Linked in stories. ❤️

Tomorrow is all about gingerbread cookies for Sant Tomorrow is all about gingerbread cookies for Santa (although the Santa who comes to our house prefers sugar cookies. He can share these with Mrs. Claus). Ruby has them all picked out—-gingerbread boys, gingerbread girls, and ninja-bread cookies. Should be fun. Had to go out and get more molasses and it wasn’t easy to find! Everyone else must be making gingerbread, too!

Gnomes and llamas made their way to our Christmas Gnomes and llamas made their way to our Christmas cookies this year and I’m wondering why we didn’t use them before! So cute ($1 at Target). My 9 year old decorated most of the cookies that you see in this photo. I taught her how to use a piping bag, a star tip, and a round tip last year and she hit the ground running. Check out our stories for 6 cookie tutorials for kids using the same frosting tips!
