Ready in 15 minutes with just 3 ingredients, this strawberry butter is about to become your new obsession!

Here in Alabama, we go strawberry picking at the end of March every year. My kids wait all winter for those sweet, juicy berries. Just mash them, whip with softened butter and powdered sugar, and you’ve got a versatile spread that’s fabulous on biscuits, scones, toast, pancakes, or English muffins. Store in the fridge for up to 4 days (if it lasts that long!), and don’t forget to try it on your next brunch board, your guests will be impressed! 🍓🧈✨

I need help settling a debate my husband and I have had our whole marriage. Google says carrot cake is an Easter dessert (and so do I) and my husband says it's a Christmas dessert. Did you or would you more likely eat this dessert at Christmas time or Easter time?
I mean the correct answer to this if pertaining to the Carrot Cake Poke Cake linked here is literally any day you want to because it's insanely delicious, but I need to know if Google and I are right. You know, for research purposes... 😉

What food do you associate with Mardi Gras most? For me it's King Cake.
In Finland they have an indulgent treat associated with Fat Tuesday too and it's called Laskiaispulla (or shrove buns). It is my ALL TIME favorite thing I ate in Finland and I developed a recipe for it while we lived there.
I re-did my pictures and made the post more helpful for making this yummy treat and I hope you'll give it a try!
Give this post a share or save it so you don't forget about it!

I'm so excited to share this recipe with you!

It can be so hard to find holiday activities that don't end up with a completely messy house from all the fun. Or a holiday themed food that doesn't require random ingredients or kitchen tools that I need to buy. Or recipes that take so, so long to make. So this year I set out to make a fun, simple, and easy Valentine's dinner or snack that you can make with your kids.
My 3 kids had so much fun helping me create these cute little puff Pastry Pizza's. I incorporated their little hands in the pictures and it's made me think I need to do more recipes with them!

Tag all your friends who would enjoy this fun Valentines dinner!

If you make these with your kids make sure to tag me and post a link so others can enjoy this recipe too!
