Super Boogie - Halloween 2014

[minayadesign]

❤❤❤❤❤

      Pumpkin Spice Muffin

1/4 cup melted butter

1 can of pumpkin 

1 cup splenda

10 drops of ez sweet

8 eggs

1/2 cup Heavy Whipping cream

2 teaspoon vanilla

Pinch of salt

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1 teaspoon pumpkin spice

1/2 cup coconut flour

1 1/2 cup almond flour

      Cream Cheese Frosting

12 oz  cream cheese (softened)

1/2 cup butter (softened)

2 teaspoon vanilla

10 drops ez sweet

1 cup Splenda

     Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350. I used a greased cupcake pan but you can use cup cake liners to make it easier

Mix together the eggs, butter, pumpkin, heavy whipping cream, splenda, vanilla. In another bowl mix all the dry ingredients, then fold those into the wet ingredients

Pour into the cupcake tray. I was able to fill up an entire tray (all the way to the top) plus had enough for an additional 4 cupcakes

I baked them for about 20 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted into the middle came out clean

For the frosting I put all the ingredients into the food processor and let it run for a few minutes. 

Once the muffins cool down, pile on the frosting. 

These should be stored in the fridge but taste better at room temperature. I heated mine up a bit and thought they tasted amazing

The texture is very dense, but not egglike which is surprising with the amount of eggs that I added. One muffin will fill you up!

Ahh, the migration of the rare golden retriever fish. What a rare and beautiful sight in nature.

The only carbs in this pizza are from the tomato sauce. The crust? Chicken. 

Crust

2 chicken breasts

1.5 cups shredded mozzarella

2-4 cloves chopped garlic (I like mine really garlic-y, so I used about 4)

Pizza Top

4-5 tablespoons tomato sauce of your choice (I try to keep it as low in carbs as possible)

Shredded mozz

Pepperoni

.5 cup ground italian sausage (I freeze the left-over sausage either for breakfasts or for pizzas in the future)

(or whatever toppings you fancy)

- Preheat your oven to 375 F. Boil your chicken in a pot of water for about 25-30 mins, until chicken is fully cooked. Run the cooked breasts through the food processor, blender, or chop with a knife until it resembles “meal” or dense crumbs. Do the same with the shredded cheese. Combine the chicken and the cheese and press in to an oven safe pan (I used a 10 in. spring form pan, but an 8x8 square pan could work too), forming a crust. Sprinkle the garlic over the top of the crust. I promise you, it won’t burn in the oven, and it smells amazing. Bake this crust for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile start cooking your italian sausage. I cooked it in a pan until it was just browned, because it will continue cooking in the oven later. After your crust is done spread your sauce around, add sausage, cheese and pepperoni any way you like, and continue baking for another 20 minutes.

Let cool and serve.

Seriously, this is so delicious.

So I am one of those obsessive people that can’t look at just one item, like it and buy it. I actually have to look at EVERY SINGLE ITEM to absolutely know that THAT is the thing that I want. Cruising through some shoes on a website turns into two hour of scrolling that results in neck pain and...
