Gingerbread Muffins
It is officially December, which mean’s it is time to start some holiday baking. For me this usually means a jeans size worth batch of peanut butter blossoms and butterscotch haystacks.
But this year, I am going to try to watch the sweets I make and eat…which is going to be extremely difficult. And I can’t promise I won’t slip up a couple times…but I do promise that this year I will be trying and sharing some new recipes. So to start, I made these fun Gingerbread Muffins.
