Call me cliche, but I may have overdone it just a little over the holidays. It is hard for me to say no to the cookies, and fudge, and my grandmother's apple sauce cake.  And just like most of you all, I am ready to get back to better and healthier eating once I break out that new 2015 calendar on the first day of January.  

I have no problem swapping out potato chips for hummus and baby carrots, and those decadent cinnamon rolls for a bowl of whole grain cereal. 
What I do have a problem with is giving up the sweets.
In fact, I just can't give up the desserts.  Anyone else also have a mean sweet tooth that seems to always thwart your best efforts at healthier eating?
That is why I have come up with an arsenal of healthier, low fat sweet treats to tame that sweet tooth without the guilt.  Like this Skinny Tiramisu Smoothie...

Mini Tiramisu Chocolate Cakes {A Guest Recipe from Busy Mom's Helper}

I am so excited for Day 2 of guest post recipes in celebration of my Birthday Week!  Danielle from Busy Mom's Helper whipped up these amazing little bites of Tiramisu heaven to celebrate.  Tiramisu is my all-time favorite dessert... like ever.  It even trumps pumpkin cheesecake, folks. ;) Thank you so much, Danielle for being a part of the celebration!

Happy Wednesday Ya'all! I'm so excited to be here at Frugal Foodie Mama today, and especially glad to help celebrate Carrie's upcoming birthday - woohoo!!! It's really neat to make friends in the blogging world, and Carrie is such a wonderful friend with one of my absolutely favorite blogs, so it truly is a delight to share this week with her!

So, in case you didn't know, one of Carrie's favorite desserts is Tiramisu (delish!). In honor of her upcoming fun-day, I've shared not only ONE but TWO Tiramisu recipes on my blog today! Now, these aren't your normal pieces of Tiramisu.....and I'm only going to tell you about one of them here (ya, I'm a tease).....Mini Tiramisu Chocolate Cakes.

Oh - and did I mention they're SUPER easy to make? Well, they are! Head on over to my blog today to check out the recipe, plus see the OTHER delicious Tiramisu treat. Toodles!
