truffles
Candy Cane truffles are easy to make, and a festive treat during the holiday season. They only require a few ingredients and most of the time involved in making them is chill time in the fridge. Once these decadent truffles are done, you can leave them as is, sprinkle with colored sugar, or pipe a holiday design on top.

These would be a great idea to take to a party, give as a gift, or just a terrific way to satisfy your sweet tooth. You can check out the complete recipe with instructions on the post HERE.

When it’s chilly outside, hot cocoa is a great way to warm up – and today CenterCutCook has a great recipe that packs all the flavors into a cookie! Even better, these cookies can be made and baked in less than 20 minutes. Garnish them with a drizzle of melted chocolate to make them pretty enough for a cookie swap or gift giving.

Or – serve them up with a glass of cold milk, or if you are a chocoholic – hot cocoa. You can check out this recipe along with instructions on the post HERE. Also – next week starting tomorrow 12/6, Target will be offering Kraft mini marshmallows for just $1 (you can go HERE to see the ad scan).

Homemade pumpkin bread is the perfect dessert or snack for fall. Michelle’s recipe calls for the traditional flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger & more – but her version comes out super moist and flavorful.

It’s easy to make, and you can make a couple loaves or a bundt size cake plus 12 mini muffins. It’s the perfect way to have some for family plus extra for sharing or gift-giving! You can check out her recipe along with instructions on her post HERE.
