A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
Chocolate covered pretzels are one of my go to treats. The combo of salty and sweet is always a crowd pleaser. You can easily dress up your chocolate covered pretzels for Easter by simply adding on some sugar decorations or even some PEEPS. Here is a video showing how I make my chocolate covered pretzels… I typically let my pretzels and toppings dry, then add a bit of the chocolate coating to the bottom of whatever I’m attaching, such as {Read More}
This weekend I made some super yummy Mint (or Vanilla, your choice!) Chocolate Chip Buttercream Bites. Well obviously if I’m going to make Bites, I have to make Pops. Hello Frosting Pops! To me this is like a dream come true, because as much as I love cake, and cake pops, what I really truly love is the frosting! In this case, Mint Chocolate Chip Buttercream Pops. Yum, yum, YUM. On the outside they look like regular cake pops… But {Read More}
When it comes to all things in the baking world, one of my favorites has always been frosting. Sweet, delicious, creamy, wonderful, buttercream frosting. I’ve often joked that cupcakes are simply carriers for frosting. It’s all about the frosting. Which is why I decided it was about time that my pop making focused on my favorite part of this baking game. The buttercream. I wasn’t sure if it would work, but it did, and it did well. Let me introduce {Read More}
Another super easy sweet for you – Valentine’s PEEPS S’mores! Or, you can forgo the stick and just make yourself some sweet s’mores… To make these… 1. I dipped graham crackers into chocolate coating. 2. I dipped my straws/sticks into chocolate, and then put them into my PEEPS hearts. 3. I sat the PEEPS hearts onto the graham crackers while the chocolate coating was still wet. That’s all there is to it. If you are skipping the sticks, you just {Read More}
Sticking with my keeping it simple theme this week, here are some sweet & simple Valentine Marshmallow Pops for you today… These are made using the Jumbo Mallow Hearts from Jet Puffed, Chocolate Coating, Mini Heart Sprinkles and Party Straws. Like everything else I turn into a pop, I start by dipping the sticks in chocolate and then inserting them into the soon to be pop, in this case the marshmallows. Then into the freezer they go to chill for {Read More}
So the treat I have to share with you today combines a whole lot of stuff that I love… Rice Krispies Treats. Cute Paper Straws. Valentine’s Day. Sprinkles. Alternative Holiday Colors. And best of all – they are super simple to make. Ah, how cute are these little guys? Love! And best of all – no baking! I used premade Rice Krispies Treats to make these (you can totally make yours from scratch – whatever works for YOU!). I simply {Read More}
One thing I make and share often on here are Oreo Cookie Pops… They are one of my favorite no bake treats, super easy to make and always well received. When I share them, I usually refer back to an earlier post showing how I made them, and often I get comments about “wait, those aren’t the same”. The fun thing with these (and so many other treats) is that the process to make them doesn’t change – all that {Read More}
A quick and easy idea for you today – White Chocolate Dipped Valentine Cookies… Remember the Sweetheart Pink Heart White Chocolate Chip Cookies I made last week? These are those same cookies (literally, same batch!) but instead of putting them into the heart shaped whoopie pie pan, I just made them as I normally make drop cookies. After baking the drop style cookies and letting them fully cool, I dipped them into a white chocolate coating and added sprinkles. As {Read More}
Yay, it’s Friday! Of course with the whole mom gig I’m not sure that actually really makes a difference, but somehow Friday still always feels better. So how about a sweet treat this fine Friday? Conversation Heart inspired S’mores Pops. These are really quite easy to make and you won’t have to turn on the oven. You will need graham crackers, marshmallow creme, chocolate for inside your s’mores pop and chocolate coating for outside your s’mores pop, along with lollipop {Read More}
Just a quick little sweet to share with you today. Valentine Oreo Cookie Pops… Oreo Pops are one of my very favorite quick and easy no bake treats. I had some winter Oreos with the red filling sitting around, along with some red chocolate coating and sprinkles – and well, with that combo, these happened. If you haven’t done a lot of cake pop making and baking and want a quick and easy semi-homemade sweet “pop” – I highly recommend {Read More}
Sam’s Club recently asked me if I would like to share with you how we celebrate New Year’s Eve at our home. We tend to be homebodies, and one of our fun traditions we started a few years ago was to enjoy fondue on New Year’s Eve. We all love it, I mean what’s not to love about dipping delicious food into cheese and chocolate? And it’s a heck of a lot cheaper to do it at home than it {Read More}
I thought I would look back and share some of my very favorite recipes from 2012. Here are the ones I loved the most from January, February and March. Starting off is a lighter one, my More Fudge Less Pudge brownie recipe (like the box, but homemade!). I shared a video tutorial about how to make one of my all time favorite, easy to make, no bake, everyone loves to eat desserts, chocolate covered pretzels. Seriously, these are so {Read More}
