A healthier muffin. You can make cream cheese frosting for these with half a package of 1/3 fat or fat free cream cheese and 1/4 cup of powdered sugar.

If you don't use stevia (Truvia), you can sub about 1/3 cup brown sugar in the muffins, but don't forget to add the extra calories.

Cherry Pie Lara Bars are one of my favorites, but at almost $1.50 per bar and with the ingredients listed as dates, almonds & unsweetened cherries - I thought to myself...hmmm...couldn't I just make these.....the answer...YES...and here is the recipe.

This recipe is easy to adapt with other dried fruits so feel free to play around with some of your favorite flavors!!! Add unsweetened coconut, a dash of cinnamon or cocoa powder....whatever your healthy heart desires. Enjoy!
