It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

My muffins took a little longer to bake but turned out fine. Might just be my oven. The flavor of the muffins had plenty of the coffee flavor and the cinnamon was a nice touch. I liked that the espresso spread wasn't too sweet.

I used white chocolate flavored instant coffee and this was amazing! The muffins are very good.
