CakeSpy Note: OMG! The 46th Annual Pillsbury Bake-Off is coming! Since I so deeply loved attending the 45th Bake-Off, I thought I would get you excited early by sharing some of the finalists' recipes. Narrowed down from zillions of entries, I'll profile some of the 100 finalists--but of course, based on the subject matter of this site, I will focus on sweets! You can follow them by clicking the bakeoff tag below the post to see which ones have been posted so far. Enjoy!
These cinnamon roll cups contain a mixture of fruit and nuts stuffed inside. You know what that means: HEALTH FOOD! And the best kind, because it's all wrapped up and delivered to your belly in a cinnamon roll and copious icing wrapped package. This fine contribution to the world of health food comes at you from Becky McKay of Boulder, Colorado.
