I’m fairly certain these would look adorable sitting on a dessert platter for your New Year’s Eve party. Although my New Year’s Eve plans have gotten dramatically less exciting every year after age 25, we still like to get together with a few friends and celebrate low-key. This year I’m bringing these NYE chocolate party [Read more >>]
I’ve been wanting to make chocolate shot glasses for longer than I’d like to admit! I kept tossing different ideas around on how I’d like to make them and then was forced to realize that a silicone mold is the only way to do it without creating a major project for yourself. These were so [Read more >>]
These strawberry santa hats are the perfect thing to have sitting on your table (or in your mouth) this week! They are super simple and taste awesome as well. My favorite kind of treat. All you need is Vanilla CandiQuik Candy Coating, mini marshmallows and white pearl sprinkles. Oh, and strawberries of course. I purchased [Read more >>]
Take a deep breath, bacon fanatics. This just happened. Diced bacon atop chocolate peanut butter truffles. And it happened very well. Trust me on this one. There were a couple special ingredients that I believe made these truffles extra awesome. 1-Bacon. Duh. The whole salty+sweet combo – you with me? 2-Chocolate Peanut Butter. Heaven by [Read more >>]
Do you ever eat like eight bagillion of something and then you realize there’s only TWO left, which turns into, “What the heck…I’ve already ate this many, what’s two more!?”?! THESE. These do that to ya. Caramel Apple Pie Grape Poppers. My life is complete. I’m usually fairly confident that I can resist the treats [Read more >>]
I just love these little turkey pretzels! These pretty much use the same instructions as my turkey cake pops I made a couple years ago. Only 10x easier and faster. Not that I don’t love cake pops, but you know… Plus, I’m kind of on a make-a-pretzel-for-every-holiday kick, if you haven’t noticed. All you need to [Read more >>]
I’m a fairly picky cookie person. The dough to chip ratio must not exceed my liking. I can’t stand when there are TOO many chocolate chips in a cookie (yes, this is totally possible). Plus, too fluffy of a cookie is not okay (this happened once when I subbed greek yogurt for half of the [Read more >>]
Cookies are in high competition around here lately. Yesterday we had sugar cookies, Halloween decorated cookies, lemon cookies, lemon cookies with cherry chips, pumpkin cookies, AND these Harvest Corn Cookies in the lunchroom at work. Decisions, decisions. How’s a girl supposed to resist ALL of that?! Impossible. These by far were the cutest of them [Read more >>]
Are you ever scrambling to pull a dessert or snack together last minute to bring to a party, friend’s house, or just something that you can make A LOT of and FAST?! I do it all the time at trade shows and so I thought I would share the treats that I tend to always make [Read more >>]
These candies are quite simple. I followed THIS Rolo Stuffed Ritz Cracker idea from Ashton at Something Swanky and then took it to the next level by dipping them in chocolate. Let’s call them Ritzwiches. I really needed these this weekend after running in the Spooky Tails 5k; a local Twin Cities 5k hosted by Wags [Read more >>]
