  1.  Mini-golf sessions are only complete with ice cream; my go-to black raspberry never disappoints.
  2. Current favorite power snacks: coconut water, steel cut oats, and Bear Naked granola.
  3. The perfect pink summer nail polish: Essie’s East Hampton Cottage
  4. Not Your Mother’s Beach Spray is the perfect solution to lazy hair days.
  5. Best summer clearance find: these Juicy Couture floral wedges from Kohl’s.
  6. Fresh melons & pineapple while poolside– perfect start to the weekend.

Happy Friday!

Granola “Cupcakes”

1 Comment

Although these are not “bars” per say, making the recipe in a cupcake wrapper, makes the recipe that much easier and cleaner.  And I like clean & easy.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups quick-cooking oats
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 cup flaked coconut
  • 1 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×13 inch pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, sweetened condensed milk, butter, coconut, almonds, chocolate chips and cranberries with your hands until well blended. Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full.
  3. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, depending on how crunchy you want them. Lightly browned just around the edges will give you moist, chewy bars. Let cool for 5 minutes, cut into squares then let cool completely before serving.
