With that evil temptation of a holiday coming at us this Friday, I had to take preemptive measures.
Otherwise, I knew I’d be doomed.…
Gingersnap + White Chocolate Truffles {7 Days of Festive Holiday Treats}
If you had to choose only one flavor that embodies fall, what would it be? For me, it’s ginger, without a doubt. (I’m pretty sure this is because of these cookies, which I vividly remember my mom frequently making in autumns gone by.) Even when I don’t have homemade Molasses Crinkles on hand, I can usually find a box of store-bought gingersnaps in my cupboard (which are surprisingly delicious!)....
Superfood Spiced Autumn Truffles
Look…they look like fudge inside! If you’re trying to avoid regular (read: sugar-coma-inducing) candy, this recipe will be your saving grace on Halloween night. Halloween at my mom’s house is like a free-for-all when it comes to sugar. She always has an insanely huge amount of candy on hand for giving away to kiddos trick-or-treating. She fills a stockpot (which is about four times as big as my normal big soup pot!) to the point of overflowing, and then it’s a frenzied dash for stuffing your bag (and your face) with candy. It is so hard to avoid that evil pot of temptation....
Autumnal Afternoon Tea
A couple weeks ago I hosted a cozy afternoon tea with an autumnal flair. It was so much fun and there was talk of making it seasonal affair, which I think is a wonderful idea! I’m going to be sharing the recipes I made throughout the next month or so, but for now I’m going to let the photos do the talking....
Raw Coco-Nutty Truffles — In the Raw…Daily Dessert Indulgences
After I made my Raw Sugar Cookie Dough into truffles, I was inspired to make another raw truffle…only this time topped with chocolate! The main flavors in these truffles are peanut, coconut, and chocolate…they’re kind-of like a cross between a Zagnut (a peanut butter/coconut candy bar) and a Clark Bar (a chocolate-covered peanut butter candy bar). With a combo like that, you really can’t go wrong....
Fall & Gingered Truffles
What could be better than a crisp fall day (full of flowers and chocolates!) that I get to spend with my hubby? To me, it doesn’t get any better than this. ;) My full recipe for Gingered Truffles can be found over on All Through the Year Cheer.

Chocolate Hazelnut Truffle Cupcakes with Hazelnut Buttercream, A Sweet Award, & An Announcement
I want to announce that the wonderful people at CSN Stores offered to let me do a review of one of their products. Choosing a product was hard since they have so many wonderful things…they literally have everything from bar stools to cookware to shoes! I decided on a cast iron skillet with a lid since this is such a versatile kitchen tool…I like to use it for fried eggs (it makes literally the best fried eggs, ever), frittata, potatoes anna, pancakes, or even sautéed veggies. I can’t wait to review this product and let you all know how it is! Now for these fabulously […]...
