Monkey Bread Muffins

Wahoo!  Today I am one super, lucky blog lady to be on Momma’s Meals Feature Friday!  She is making one of my recipes today.  So head over there and see if she enjoyed my recipe {HERE}.  She’s got tons of recipes on her blog that you may want to try also.  In return, I decided to make one of her yummies.  I made Momma’s Meals Monkey Bread Muffins.  They were gone in seconds.  Everyone loved ’em.  Here’s what I did:

Monkey Bread Muffins from Momma’s Meals 

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (I used cinnamon and it was a smart move for a substitute)

1/4 cup white sugar
1 (16 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough jumbo size, separated and cut into nine pieces each (I actually used a pizza crust I had in my fridge, I was hesitant on how it would taste but it was awesome!)
SAUCE:
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon water
Combine the brown sugar, butter, and water in a small saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil, stirring continuously. Allow the mixture to boil until the sugar is completely dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes.

My kidlets ate these up right away!

 I didn’t have refrigerator dough, but I did have frozen bread dough that worked great!

I set the frozen dough balls out to thaw until they were soft, but still cold. (I used 18 balls)

Baby Girl helped me.  It’s actually a very kid-friendly recipe.

 We divided all the dough balls into two. 

So we now had double the amount of dough balls.
 Tossed them in cinnamon and a little sugar.
 Stuffed them in the muffin pan.  Baby Girl loved this part.
Made the sauce as Momma said.

 Pour it over the dough balls.

 Bake at 375 until golden.  I baked mine for about 15-20 mins.
Seriously yummy.
Thanks to Momma’s Meal for this great recipe!

I left satisfied and had a fun time with my hubby and our friends. 

Purchase tickets online. Seating is first come, first served so arrive early if you want a certain seat (though there isn’t a bad seat at all). Let me know if you try this!

Date night with my hubby @amctheatres to see @thes Date night with my hubby @amctheatres to see @thesheepdetectives … Fun, quirky movie, (kinda like Babe but really like no other movie I’ve seen before). Definitely full of kid vibes but adults will like it too. A who-dun-it mystery. We laughed out loud a lot more than we expected!

Are you wondering if the Thanksgiving Point Festiv Are you wondering if the Thanksgiving Point Festival is worth visiting this year? Here’s a look at what we saw today. 

We’ve had a lot of up and down weather so I wasn’t surprised to find a lot of the tulips already finishing up their season on April 23. BUT we still found quite a few areas with some big, beautiful blooms and it was a peaceful walk with less crowds. There were signs reminding us that more tulips were going to be blooming soon, so maybe wait a week or so if you want to see those new tulips. 

Thank you @utahstulipfestival for a fun visit! @thankspoint @theashtongardens #tulipfestival #utahtulipfestival #tulipseason #springinutah #traveltips
DO. NOT. MISS. THIS. Peter Pan Goes Wrong @halecen DO. NOT. MISS. THIS. Peter Pan Goes Wrong @halecentretheatre I laughed until I cried! 
We loved this one!! 

This is the sequel to The Play That Goes Wrong.  #peterpangoeswrong #halecentretheatre #thingstodoinutahwithkids #emptynesterlife #familyfriendly
Valentine’s Day with my man at the NEW Miller Fami Valentine’s Day with my man at the NEW Miller Family Beehive Stage @halecentretheatre . It’s was the perfect day to see a rom com and my hubby was a good sport to see a play called “Hallmarked” (NOT his favorite play so far). The play definitely lives up to its name—lots of predictable moments, plot holes, and cheesy lines. 🫤 But when it makes fun of itself, you will laugh and leave feeling lighthearted.
Leave your questions in the comments section if you want to more of my thoughts about this new play. #halecentertheater #thingstodoinutah #emptynesterlife #valentinesdaydate #familytravelideas
