Easy and quick are two words that I think every single person likes to hear. Especially someone like me that has a three year old toddler running around like a raging bull, a new born baby girl requiring my attention every 5 seconds, and a husband that is almost as bad as the 3 year old and newborn combined . Frantically searching for my cup of coffee has become an everyday necessity for me. I don’t just enjoy drinking a cup of coffee, I need a cup of coffee or two or four or ten just to survive my day. Whenever I don’t have the time or energy to get up and make a pot of coffee for myself, these coffee infused energy bites are a great alternative. They are not only easy and quick but also give me my coffee kick!
