I posted about this a few weeks ago and forgot to share the recipe. I’m sorry! Unfortunately, I can’t take full responsibility for coming up with this creation, but I am happy to give credit to Ashley! It’s been a huge hit at our house and I hope it will be at yours as well!

Anna’s birthday party last night was so much fun! With 11 little girls and 2 little boys, it was quite the celebration! I will do a whole post on the party but until then here is a great recipe for you to make this week!
