I have had my Keurig Brewer for several months now…and I love it as much today as when I first got it. It makes the perfect cup of coffee each and every time with no guess work involved. No measuring or guessing how much coffee grounds to use, no measuring or guessing how much water to use. It is wonderful.
No matter what your taste in coffee happens to be, there is a K-Cup that you will love with over 200 different varieties available. They also have teas, hot chocolates and ice teas and coffees available. We are loving the iced coffee blends since it has already been so hot this summer.
You may be asking yourself why a single cup brewer is better. The main reason for me is that I can’t make a decent pot of coffee to save my life. The Keurig saves me time, hassle, money, and sanity. That folks is why it is better for me. And it truly is a better way to enjoy a gourmet cup of coffee. Especially for folks like me that do not have a coffee shop nearby. Or if you want to save some money. Or if you just like to sit on the back porch to drink your coffee. Ok, so you get the picture…it’s just better in so many different ways.
One of my most FAVORITE things to make using my Keurig is Coffee Milkshakes. Yummmmmy!
To get started making a coffee milkshake of your own, brew a fresh cup of coffee. (I used a French Vanilla K-Cup…one of my favs!)
Once your coffee is finished brewing add 2 Tablespoons of sugar so that it can dissolve.
While your coffee is cooling, get your blender out and set up.
Measure out 3 cups of vanilla ice cream (or any flavor that you choose) and place in blender.
Add 1 cup of ice cubes
1 TBSP of Vanilla
1/3 cup of milk
And last add 1 cup of coffee
Blend all together until smooth and has the consistency of a milkshake.
Thanks to the great folks at Keurig, you get the chance to win a Keurig Personal Mini Brewer of your very own!

Women across the country are changing their habits to meet the demands of increasingly busy schedules and tightened wallets by setting aside life’s simple pleasures and putting themselves at the bottom of the to-do list. I know I am at the bottom of my list. Since I became a Mom, that is where I have been. I think all Mom’s feel that way because we strive so hard to make sure our families and homes are taken care of and we just take whatever is left over. In fact, a new survey commissioned by the makers of Edwards® frozen desserts finds more than nine in 10 American women have cut back on indulgences during the past year*. While avoiding extravagant luxuries may seem like a necessity these days, finding convenient and affordable ways to reward yourself daily can help bring a little sweet serenity back into your life.
Unwinding from the day’s pressures can be as simple as saving a few minutes for yourself. And treating yourself to something small, like a delicious dessert, is still important despite these tough times.
The makers of Edwards® frozen desserts recently launched Edwards® Singles Á La Modes, located in the frozen pie section of your grocers’ freezers. Baked hot from the microwave in under one minute with no mixing, even the busiest of dessert lovers can enjoy a Hot Turtle Brownie, Hot Fudge Brownie or Hot Apple Crisp topped with cold, creamy ice cream as a sweet way to unwind and reward themselves.
Simple Indulgences Spa Sweepstakes
To encourage women to share their tips on simple indulgences and how they prefer to unwind and rejuvenate, the makers of Edwards® frozen desserts are hosting the “Simple Indulgences Spa Sweepstakes” on EdwardsBaking.com from now through October 9, 2009. Participants can sign-up to receive a coupon for $1.00 off one package of delicious and indulgent Edwards® Singles Á La Modes desserts and enter for a chance to win one of 10 $500 SpaFinder.com gift cards to treat themselves to a relaxing spa experience.
For more information on Edwards® Singles Á La Modes desserts, the “Simple Indulgences Spa Sweepstakes” and complete rules, visit EdwardsBaking.com.
*The Edwards® Singles Dessert Survey is a nationally representative telephone survey of 516 American Women, ages 18 and over, conducted between June 30 and July 7, 2009. The margin of error for the overall study is +/- 4.3% at the 95% confidence level.
