The Easiest Piñta Cake

Back to School means back to the grind.
Homework, sports practices, meal planning...
In an effort to make the dinner routine a little more fun, 
we rely on Taco Tuesday to make our week night a fiesta.
I'm surprising everyone tonight with a treat, 
a Piñata Cake...

Store bought coconut cake is magically transformed into 
a darling dessert...

You just need a Piñata Cookie Cutter...

and colorful sprinkles...

Gently push sprinkles into the cake to better hold them in place, 
then lift cutter straight up.

This piñata is all about the prize being on the outside,
instead of inside.
Just the way I like it...

Viva Taco Tuesday!

White Peach Margaritas



There is nothing better after a long day than sipping a lively cocktail.
I had a basket full of white peaches on my counter screaming for a fiesta so the 
White Peach Margarita was born!

This fruity, fun drink, 
paired with fresh tortilla chips and salsa fresca, 
and the worries of the day just floated away...

Luscious white peaches, fresh squeezed orange and lime juices, 
mixed with tequila then served "up" with salt...

but the key to my evening cocktail is 
With zero calories, it helps give my margaritas the perfect sweetness 
without the extra calories and it's diabetic friendly.

Even the piñata looks envious of my drink!


White Peach Margaritas
(2 margaritas)
2 Ripe White Peaches, peeled and diced (or any type of peach will be fabulous)
1/4 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
1/4 cup fresh squeezed lime juice
3 packets of Sweet'N Low
2 shots of tequila (or 3 oz)

Place peaches, juices and Sweet'N Low in a blender and mix until all ingredients are pureed together.
Add tequila and peach puree to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake well.  Pour into salt rimmed martini glasses and enjoy. (can be served on the rocks as well)
