Peanut Clusters in holiday wrappers

Slow Cooker Peanut Clusters

I do a lot of baking at the holidays, and I love to add some type of homemade candy to the mix. These slow cooker-made peanut clusters are pure genius. You literally add all the ingredients to a slow cooker, let the chocolate melt on low for a while, mix it and dollop out the clusters. Boom. Done. You can double this if you need a large quantity for no extra effort. They’re always a hit! A friend’s mom I used to see every Christmas Eve would look forward to them each year. To me, there’s no bigger compliment than to have someone enjoy a homemade treat I’ve made.

Paleo vegan gluten free fudge cups with almond and coconut flakes

Five Minute Paleo Fudge

If you’re following a Paleo, vegan, or gluten-free diet, sometimes it’s challenging to find delicious recipes for anything that feels indulgent. This is it. Whether you’re following a specific special diet or not, this fudge is so easy, and SO yummy. Make a quick batch for yourself or someone you love. They are absolutely amazing. I’ve made them with both peanut butter and almond butter and they are straight-up wonderful in the best possible melt-in-your-mouth way. A little bit of Maldon salt on top? Chef kiss.

Homemade Rice Krispie Treats

Brown Butter Rice Krispie Treats

I realize you may have made Rice Krispie Treats before, AND yes, the easiest way to a Rice Krispie Treat is to buy one, but let me try to convince why you should make your own. These treats are SO yummy, and so easy to make! The browned butter just elevates these, unbelievably. I always love when a dessert gives you an unexpected amount of flavor. These don’t just taste like sugar. They are NEXT LEVEL. I’ve made these with butterscotch chips and peanut butter chips. Both delicious – your pick!

Halloween bark with candy corn and sprinkles

Chocolate Toffee Halloween Bark

Nothing scary and no special tricks needed to make this easy treat!  This toffee brittle is a blank canvas just begging for you to go all Jackson Pollock on. Switch it up and use what you have on hand.  Milk chocolate, white chocolate, semi-sweet or dark. See what I used to make this, or use your own imagination for toppings. Keep this cold so it doesn’t become a melty (albeit) delicious mess!
