A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
One more fun way to use the Mint Chocolate Chip Buttercream Frosting I made. This frosting just looks too much like ice cream to NOT use it, well, like ice cream. And what a fun & festive way to do so for St. Patrick’s Day! Oh my word, seriously these are the cutest little things EVER. I have an overwhelming desire to make a million different versions of them. I used the tiny little Joy Mini Cup Cones (found at {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}
Day two of Magic Cookie Bar Week and after going a little peppermint crazy with yesterday’s Peppermint Bites From Other Blogs, I simply had to bring some peppermint goodness to a magic cookie bar. These are loaded with just about every candy cane flavored treat I had in my house, including Candy Cane Oreos, White Chocolate Peppermint M&M’s, Jet-Puffed Peppermint Mallow Bits and Andes Peppermint Crunch Baking Bits. As my philosophy always goes, if you can’t find these items, just {Read More}
I have always loved doing the Bites From Other Blogs Recipe Round Ups here on Love From The Oven. There are so many amazing and inspiring baking and bloggers sharing such incredible recipes and I always enjoy discovering them and sharing them. With the holidays bringing so many special flavors and treats and the web buzzing with delicious and creative recipes, I think 12 Days of The Best Holiday Recipes sounded like fun. Today we will kick the 12 Days {Read More}
Made a quick stop in Trader Joe’s this morning and it’s official – Christmas (and peppermint) are in store. Woohoo! Candy Cane Joe Joe’s! Unfortunately being a few days before Thanksgiving, the staff was busy stocking and unloading everywhere, so I could barely shop, much less get photos. I tried to grab a quick few pics. Great to see many of my holiday favorites return another year… Candy Cane Joe Joe’s and Dark Chocolate Dipped Candy Cane Joe Joe’s Some {Read More}
I have a fun holiday treat for you using two of my favorite things – chocolate and PEEPS! I created this recipe for the folks over at PEEPS using their holiday PEEPS products. All your ingredients get prepared ahead of time, making this a great item to sit out at parties (hot cocoa station anyone) or you could wrap these up as super cute edible gifts. Just add a warm cup of milk and you are ready for a delicious {Read More}
Stopped in to Trader Joe’s for a few things yesterday morning and spotted some new items and a few favorites. Here’s what was in my store, which is ready for all of the Thanksgiving Shoppers… Peppermint is in store, but no Peppermint Joe Joe’s to be found just yet. These Chocolate Peppermint Cupcakes look like they could hold one over until the Joe Joe’s arrive. Or maybe some Chocolate Peppermint Brownies. Chocolate Blizzard Cookies. Trader Joe’s Candy Cane Green Tea {Read More}
Such a yummy recipe to share today. Simple to make? Check. Delicious? Check. Fabulous for the holiday season? Check. Hey, that works for me. Peppermint Stick Cake Bars. These are made the way that magic cookie bars are – a bottom layer, yummy toppings and sweetened condensed milk. I’ve found that to be quite the winning combo. To take it to a whole other level, it is then drizzled with Duncan Hines Frosting Creations Peppermint Stick Frosting. I ADORE peppermint {Read More}
A super simple sweet for you this Friday afternoon. Minty Marshmallow Pops. These could not be easier to make. You need some Jet-Puffed Jumbo Peppermint Mallows. Some Wilton Candy Cane Melts (or any other chocolate coating that you want to use). And whatever you want to use for decorating. I used sanding sugar, candy cane sugar shapes and a CK Candy Writer. I used the darling striped straws from Sweets & Treats Boutique. First I melted my chocolate coating according {Read More}
Recipes are a funny thing. Sometimes you think one will be the best things ever, and it’s okay. Other times you make a recipe expecting it to be good, and it ends up knocking your socks off it’s so great. That is exactly what the Triple Chocolate Rice Krispies Treats With Jet Puffed Mallow Bits did. I assumed it would be tasty, but WOW – unbelievably delicious. When I made them, I actually made two versions at the same time, {Read More}
I’ve mentioned before that I usually make my brownies from a box mix. I grew up on the box brownies and when I think of brownies, those are what I think of. Most homemade brownies are a bit more “cakey” than I like, or they call for melting unsweetened chocolate, which I never have on hand, so box it is. Well I think I found a brownie recipe that may change all of that. This recipe could be used year {Read More}
Look what I have… Holiday Peeps! And some special new ones… Caramel Peeps! Dipped in both milk and dark chocolate. Yum!!! So, what can we do with them? Let’s start with brownies, and make something like this… This is so fun and super easy. Start by
