Heart Munch Snack Mix

heartmunch_final2

I’ve seen so many cute treats for Valentine’s Day – from cake pops and cookies, to elaborate cakes. But I needed something NOW. Something that I could whip up fast that will stay fresh for at least a couple days and something that will hold up when being shipped in mini flower pots… Just stick with me, it will all make sense.

Love Bites

Love Bites - Heart Cake Bites

I decided to name these ‘Love Bites’  for one reason and one reason only. They can be called Love Bites as in, a small delectable treat made with love. Or Love Bites as in, love blows, stinks, sucks, etc. And I find this sorta funny. Sorta? Well, especially for you anti-valentine’s people. I happen to love [Read more >>]

Chocolate Kiss Cake Bites

I made these last year for Valentine’s Day and decided they needed a post of their own. They are so dang cute and although I made them for Valentine’s – they are universal and customizable. Here I had thought that I had came up with an awesome, original idea (if there is such a thing)! [Read more >>]

Vanilla Peppermint Pops

I really hope you have all of your holiday shopping done. Because I just went to Target. It felt like my Black Friday (that I somehow was convinced to participate in) nightmare all over again. Never again. Maybe it’s that I get overwhelmed with swarms of people,  feel claustrophobic when waiting in line and can’t [Read more >>]

Peppermint Oreo Lollipops

I was thinking about this the other day… Kids typically want to keep all of their treats to themselves. When I was younger, I would have gladly devoured all of my treats, candy, etc. by myself. And then parents come along and suggest sharing and blah, blah, blah… you know the rest of the story. However, as adults, the [Read more >>]

I found these at this super cute blog, Sweet Tooth. Warning: be prepared to want to bake your heart out for the next week year after visiting her site. I seriously printed out 5 recipes and added them to my Recipes I Must Bake Real Soon queue. That queue is huge by the way. I [Read more >>]

Cherry Coconut Bonbons

It’s just about time to start posting fall inspired recipes and then umm, that season that follows fall. Yikes. Let’s not talk about that yet. Let’s talk about cherry chips, coconut, chocolate, and all the goodness they can produce. I’m usually not a huge fan of cherry flavored stuff – I know, I’m weird. But if you’ve [Read more >>]

Whoopie Pies

Whoopie Pies. Ok, sorta whoopie pies. But please save the “these aren’t realllllyy whoopie pies” comments. I know. You know. We know. (Feelin’ a little feisty today can you tell?) But they kind of look like whoopie pies, which is close enough for me. Mock whoopie pies. There we go. Like the mock ice cream pops made a [Read more >>]

Espresso Cake Bites

Warning, do not feed these to: small children, your dog, or yourself… if you are wishing to sleep soon. ESPRESSO CAKE BITES ohhh – mee – ohhh – myy I almost didn’t share these. They are rich, chocolatey, and not very “summery”. But who cares? Espresso, chocolate, cake, more chocolate, bite size. Need I say more?! Even if [Read more >>]
