Fall is all around I am totally in need of pumpkin spice coffee and a few little pumpkin treats!!!
Bryce and Matt did a little baking today and whipped up these yummy treats!!! They are easy to make, they really really taste awesome. Like so awesome that you really have to ration out a serving size and then put the rest away! If you are looking for something different for your fall rotation and snacks this is one we highly recommend.
Feel free to share and give your feedback on what you think!
