Cake Batter Truffles

Holy Cow.

Where did this summer go?  I swear I blinked and it was over.

My house was so quiet today because my boys all started back to school today.

I was lonely for about five minutes and then I got over it.

Don’t get me wrong.  I lOvE my boys, but it was so nice to get my house all cleaned today and have it actually stay clean for more than 10 minutes.  You see, my boys seems to have a hard time remembering to do simple things like throw away their string cheese wrapper, put their shoes away, hang up their wet towels, put their dishes in the dishwasher instead of the sink, etc. . .you get my drift?

Enough about that, and let’s move onto more important things like cake batter.  In case you didn’t know, I LOVE cake batter.  I don’t know what it is about the flavor, but I am in love with it.  It’s a dangerous thing when I make anything involving cake batter, like these cake batter buddies When I saw these cake batter truffles I knew I was a goner.  They are amazing.

Take my word, if you love cake batter like I do, you absolutely, positively need to make these.
