Keurig K-Latte
Every day starts better with a warm cup of happiness – whether that’s a cup of joe, hot cocoa, tea or even apple cider! The Keurig K-Latte Single Serve K-Cup Coffee and Latte Maker, Comes with Milk Frother, Compatible With all Keurig K-Cup Pods, so the beverage possibilities are endless. I love the milk frother! It’s perfect for making lattes with fresh milk! The frother base flips up to save counter space which is great! You can brew 6, 8, or 10 ounces of your favorite coffee, tea or cocoa.
KitchenAid 4.5 Quart Deluxe
Every kitchen needs a KitchenAid. It’s the ULTIMATE tool for any cook – whether you are just starting out or you are an expert. And there are SO many colors to choose from! Pick one that will be perfect for YOUR home. This KitchenAid Deluxe 4.5 Quart Mixer color is Pistachio. The larger bowl size makes cooking large batches of cookie dough or cinnamon roll dough so easy. You can make enough dough for up to SIX dozen cookies! This mixer also features 10 speeds to thoroughly mix, knead and whip ingredients quickly and easily. I also love all of the attachments you can add to the KitchenAid mixer — 10 optional powered attachments, from food grinders to pasta makers and more!!
Farberware Air Fryer Toaster Oven
We love this toaster oven! We use it more than our microwave! It not only bakes, it warms, roasts, toasts AND it’s an air fryer! So you can make delicious foods without any oil. Plus there’s no oil, so no splatter and no mess. We love the pre-programmed cook settings and the automatic shut off makes it easy to use. The design fits right into our kitchen. It’s our favorite for making almost anything, from pizzas, to grilled sandwiches, even cinnamon rolls are a snap to make in our Farberware Toaster Oven – they take just a few minutes to make. Perfect for brunch!
The Pioneer Woman 10 Piece Cookware Set
I appreciate nice pots and pans. And I love having a set that goes together. You can make dinner in The Pioneer Woman cookware and take it right to the table to serve, the design is so pretty! I love that the pieces are well made, and they have three layers of non-stick coating which also is PFOA free. Food just slides off the surface. So NO scrubbing for me – yay!! There’s a pot for every size and recipe you would want to create – including a cast iron skillet. And the pans have silicone handles with a comfortable grip, no more scorched hands! I bought this set and threw out all of my old, mis-matched pans. I love cooking with these pans. And The Pioneer Woman Bakerware Set has everything you need to bake!
We had so much fun cooking a festive weekend brunch with these kitchen tools! We made ooey gooey soft cinnamon rolls These cinnamon rolls are so fast to make and you don’t even need yeast! In just a few minutes we had brunch ready!
Easy Toaster Oven Cinnamon Rolls with Creamy Icing
Ingredients:
Rolls:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 Tbs. sugar
- 1 T. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- 5 Tbs. cold butter
- 3/4 cup milk
Filling:
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3 Tbs. white sugar
- 2 tsp. cinnamon
- 4 Tbs. butter (melted)
- 1/2 tsp. almond extract (or vanilla extract)
Icing:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 tsp. almond extract (or vanilla extract)
- 3 1/2 cups confectioners sugar
Instructions:
- Combine flour, sugar, baking powdered and salt in KitchenAid Mixer.
- Cut 5 Tbs. butter into the dry mix and mix until it reaches a pebbly consistency.
- Add milk and mix with paddle blade attachment until all ingredients are combined and dough forms a ball shape.
- Put dough onto a well floured surface and use a rolling pin to roll into a 10×12 inch circle. Use additional flour on top of the dough and on the rolling pin to keep the dough from sticking to the rolling pin or counter.
- Make filling in KitchenAid mixer — combine brown sugar, sugar and cinnamon, then add butter and almond (or vanilla extract). The consistency will be thick.
- Spread the filling evenly over the dough.
- Roll the dough into a log, then slice into 12 pieces.
- Spray the toaster oven pan with non-stick spray.
- Place the cinnamon roll slices on the toaster oven pan.
- Turn the toaster oven onto BAKE 375-degrees and set the time to 15 minutes.
- Shut the toaster oven door.
- While the rolls cook, make icing.
- In medium Pioneer Woman Cookware pot, add butter and cook over medium-low heat until butter melts.
-
Whisk in milk, and almond or vanilla extract. Add confectioner’s sugar 1/2 cup at a time, whisking after each addition.
-
Remove from heat, after all the sugar has been added and whisk until smooth.
- When timer goes off, take the rolls out of the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes, then pour warm icing over the top.
-
Note – If icing is too thin, add additional sifted sugar 1/4 cup at a time until desired thickness or sit it in the refrigerator a few minutes. Take it out and whisk it until creamy again. Frosting will thicken as it cools, but it’ll be harder to spread.

Super interested in the toaster oven. Any chance on a more comprehensive review. 😉 thanks!
Jen says
Hi Jaime!
I’d love to give you my thoughts on it! I never thought I needed a toaster oven. I have friends who have always raved about them but I thought I was fine with an oven and a microwave. After using it I really am blown away. I use it all the time! It cooks things so fast. And it’s an airfryer. I have a small arifryer but it was so small that it was hard to make anything for our family in it. This taster oven is about 8 times bigger so I can air fry all kinds of things like chicken breasts. I love making pizza in it because the crust comes out so crunchy. I also love making sandwiches in it. The cheese melts and it’s so crispy. And I even made cinnamon rolls in about half the time it takes me in the oven. It’s a really handy little appliance. Let me know if you have specific questions I can answer!
xoxo

Those look so yummy!!!!
Jen says
Thanks Ellen! I have never had a toaster oven before. Now I am addicted to it. You can make the yummiest tasted sandwiches and things cook faster because the air circulates like an air fryer. Those cinnamon rolls bakes so quickly!

Melissa says
These sound DELICIOUS. I have a couple of questions: is there any cocoa in the icing, as it says to add? And for the rolls do we use 5 Tbl or 7 Tbl butter? Thank you!
Jen says
Hi Melissa!
Yes 5 Tbs. butter for the dough. And thanks for catching the cocoa. I also make it with cocoa when I want a chocolate frosting. This one does not use coca. So I’ve fixed that and the butter. Thank you!
