{Friday Five Foodie Finds #15}

February 10, 2012 by Amanda R DeWitt

 Happy Friday Friends!

Time for another Friday Five Foodie Finds!

If you’ve been here before, you probably aren’t surprised that there are mostly sweets on the line-up.  I have a serious sweet tooth.  I am also very into bars lately, as you can see by two of the picks as well as my Granookie Bars, Crazy Brownies and a delightfully healthy Valentine’s cookie bar I’ve yet to post but have teased you with a photo of on Facebook.

Please enjoy these lovely finds and note that I will be pinning all of these to pinterest, my new addiction.  I’ve also figured out how to add a pin-it button to each page, so feel free to use it!

Snickerdoodle Muffins by Sweet Peas Kitchen

The BF’s favorite cookie is a snickerdoodle…so why not make him snickerdoodle muffins?

Butterscotch Blondies with Chocolate Glaze by Sweet Tooth Sweet Life

 These look ooey gooey and delicious!  Can you just imagine biting into one and making a huge mess?

Chocolate Fudge Oat Bars by Finding Joy in my Kitchen

Sno White, as she calls herself, made this for her birthday this week.  Don’t you just love the people that make their own birthday treats?  (Okay, I’ve been known to do the same thing..you got me.)

Stop by her site and wish her a happy birthday! 🙂

Healthier Mexican Layer Dip by Espresso and Cream

I had some seven layer bean dip at a Superbowl party (don’t ask me what I was doing at a sports party…I have no idea) and I wanted to make some of my own.  Voila.

Guaranteed Crispy Sweet Potato Fries by The Art of Doing Stuff

I’ve always wanted to try to make my own sweet potato fries and this is apparently a fool-proof method of getting them to the perfect french fried crisp.

If you were featured, please feel free to grab a button!

Also, be on the look out for a recipe that looks something like this:

I may post this goodie later today..if I get through my insane to-do list!  My phone keeps going off telling me all of the things that I need to be doing instead of blogging.  Why oh why must I do anything besides look at yummy recipes and fantastic writing?

Have a great Friday everyone!
