Cupcakes, fudgy brownies and a yummy Giveaway

I am not a fan of  baking mixes, and please do not get mad at me! If a box has more than 14-15 ingredients in which half of them I have no clue how to pronounce,I kind of get scare. I love to bake from scratch, but sometimes we are so busy and we do not have the time to shift or measure and we want to go the easy but still nutritious way.

Have you heard of Naturally Nora?
Their products  are made entirely from all natural ingredients. No artificial flavors, colors, preservatives or hydrogenated oils. They also can be prepared dairy or soy-free and are kosher. Now we are talking!

I made cupcakes using the vanilla cake mix and the result were moist and fluffy cupcakes. The frosting was really good and not too sweet.


And if you are a chocolate lover, the Fudgy Brownie mix is for you. I added to my brownie mix 1 cup of cream cheese, I just love the combination of chocolate and  cream cheese. The brownies tasted delicious and  they were moist and not too rich.


 Naturally Nora send me a big box of goodies and they also want to send some your way, I even added a packet of regular and mini cupcakes liners along with a 1M tip so you can frost your cupcakes or your cake.



To enter the giveaway for a box of goodies from Naturally Nora:
