It seems after Christmas the winter season drags on and on and on. . .you wake up each morning hoping the second you whip open the blinds the cold winter world would have changed overnight into a green, warm, sunny world where the birds are active again. But for the last 2 weeks or so it feels as though we are stuck in this arctic freeze. We're teased with a warm-ish day, then BOOM - the next 7 days are back to subzero temps! So this is where we are - freezing and doing our best to combat cabin fever. Being indoors has a benefit - baking. I'm don't claim to be a brilliant baker by any means. I always only use recipes that call for minimal ingredients - and even few steps to complete. So in my search for easy deliciousness I came across a recipe I had to share. Super easy, super delicious - especially just out the oven...
