Butterscotch Caramel Fruit Dip

I can't take credit for this amazing recipe, but I will say it is a new favorite of mine- Thanks Karri

2 containers soft cream cheese
2 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
Whip together and spread into a dish.
Pour Mrs. Richardson's Butterscotch Caramel topping over the cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle with Heath toffee bar or the Heath toffee baking bits.

Serve with apple slices or strawberries- I think the apples taste the best

I used the frozen bag of mixed berries from Costco. I tripled the recipe for BB, but still cooked it in 3 pans. And I used a couple of whole eggs where it called for just whites. ( 3 egg whites, 2 whole eggs)

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffuns

Fall is my favorite time of year to bake. There are so many wonderful recipes out there that incorporate pumpkin. I think these come awfully close to Starbuck's muffins.

Ingredients
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons brown sugar

4 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
5 tablespoons white sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons chopped pecans

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 1/3 cups canned pumpkin
1/3 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour 18 muffin cups, or use paper liners.
To make the filling: In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until soft. Add egg, vanilla and brown sugar. Beat until smooth, then set aside.

For the streusel topping: In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar, cinnamon and pecans. Add butter and cut it in with a fork until crumbly. Set aside.

For the muffin batter: In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Make a well in the center of flour mixture and add eggs, pumpkin, olive oil and vanilla. Beat together until smooth.

Place pumpkin mixture in muffin cups about 1/2 full. Then add one tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture right in the middle of the batter. Try to keep cream cheese from touching the paper cup. Sprinkle on the streusel topping.

Bake at 375 degrees F (195 degrees C) for 20 to 25 minutes.

2 Cans of Diced Tomatoes- I like Ro-Telle or other chili spiced tomatoes
