Skinny Pumpkin Spice Dark Chocolate Truffles

September 11, 2018 Amanda Plott
pumpkin-spice-truffle11.jpg

Pumpkin spice and everything nice, that’s what these truffles are made out of! These little cuties are surprisingly easy to make and are pretty impressive, if I do say so myself. Making candies is sort of one of those kitchen fears of mine that ranks up there even higher than most baking projects! I suppose that’s because candy making and baking are the more scientific limbs of cooking. And I am no scholar.

Even so, I like to push myself to limits and test my skills when I can. Nothing good ever came out of fear of failure! These sweet treats are as simple as candy can be to make, filled with a delicious pumpkin spice cream cheese mixture that everyone can enjoy this fall! (Or any time of year really!)…

Marbled Chocolate & Matcha Candy Cups

This post was sponsored by Crisco® Coconut Oil as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.

So, over a year ago now I had made these amazingly delicious PB&J Cups that were some of my most favorite homemade candies ever. Party because they were so good, and partly because they were - well - more wholesome for being homemade. These Marbled Chocolate & Matcha Candy Cups are no different.

They chocolate used here is a dark chocolate, which instantly gives you a few more benefits than most other chocolates. And to make it even better, I filled them with a matcha butter that is perfectly balanced with the swarms of white chocolate to give just the right amount of sweetness without being an overkill...

Dinosaur Snack Mix

June 21, 2016 Amanda Plott

Eee! I'm so excited to be sharing one of my most cherished childhood movies with my little girl this week that I just had to celebrate with the perfect movie night snacks! The Land Before Time movies are ones that I watched regularly when I was about my daughter's age. I've been spinning my wheels trying to come up with some fun movie night ideas and popcorn recipes to tie into the theme and The Land Before Time characters. We're all about themes in my family, if you haven't noticed.

This Dinosaur Snack Mix is full of sweet and salty add-ins to make those little (and big) mouths happy during the movie! Plus, I've added in some better-for-you tidbits that make for a great blend of what you want and what you need for yourself and your little ones alike...

Frozen Yogurt Cake Batter Bites

Yes, that's right... M&M's® Crispy are Back! They're so good that the brand brought them back because we asked for it! Now you can finally taste what you've been missing - whether it's because you've never tried them, or remember them from years back.

I've had them before and trust me, they are every bit as delicious as they once were! How can you go wrong with delicious milk chocolate with a crispy rice center? Easy, you can't!

My daughter's 5th birthday is just around the corner and she is just in LOVE with cake batter or 'funfetti' inspired things. I really think this girl lives off rainbows of one kind or another. So, I decided to make use of M&M's® Crispy in a fun and colorful way. A couple of years ago, I came across the wonderfully sinful cake batter chocolate bark that I've definitely eaten my weight in since then. With M&M's® Crispy being just 180 calories per serving, I thought this would be a great opportunity to make a slightly less indulgent version of that lovely cake batter bark in the form of bites...
