Bake a 3 Ingredient Cobbler

The smell of a sweet dessert can make anyone feel cozy during the fall. My grandmother's go-to hack for a simple cobbler involves only three ingredients. All you need is: canned peaches (2 8oz cans), butter (1 stick) and a yellow cake mix. Simply pour the peaches in a baking dish, pour dry cake mix over it, and add chopped up butter (not melted!). Bake until golden at 375. Also, if it is too dry add more butter as needed during the baking process.

Create the Perfect Hot Coco to Keep You Warm!

Because we all need a good mug of hot chocolate during late night study sessions! Add liquid coffee creamer to your hot chocolate to spice it up. French vanilla in a dark chocolate mix is my personal favorite!

This may sound like a given, but it is so easily overlooked! Scent can add a lot to a room and the overall mood it creates. Find a candle or plugin air freshener and choose something involving cinnamon, pumpkins or harvest related.
