I’m always searching for a bite-sized appetizers (or entrees) that would be great for a party… or a quick meal to make if you don’t have a lot of time that still feels fancy.
These Lasagna Bites in Wonton Shells are both, and they’re well-loved in our home because they’re delicious and SO easy to make.
For Halloween every year, I pick up those big bags with a variety of fun sized candies – like snickers, milk duds, taffy, sweettarts. It’s so hard to get rid of all the candy I end up buying. Looking on the bright side, it’s good that the kids aren’t greedy and don’t think to take more than 2 or 3 pieces. But then my hips and I end up with everything that’s left . . .
Of all the recipes I’ve shared on my blog, the ones that get the most comments, likes, shares and views are always the sweet ones! And with all the holiday parties fast approaching, I thought I would continue the trend and share my Hazelnut Toffee.
This Hazelnut Toffee is sweet and buttery with plenty of crunch. You could use dark, white or milk chocolate and substitute almonds for the hazelnuts.
I can remember the first time I used a candy thermometer. I was shaking in my shoes! And it was all for naught! If you’ve never made toffee before, have no fear! This recipe is easy and fail proof. You just need a good candy thermometer and a large heavy saucepan and you’re in business.
I am 26. My sister is four years old. And yet, we are a lot a like. For example, we definitely share a sweet tooth. When I saw the idea for a bark on a friend’s blog, I knew I would make it for her and send it as a Halloween treat with all her favorite candies inside of it. This bark is hearty stuff and then I decided to add gummy worms–something she loves but rarely gets to eat because for some reason she likes them in ice cream which means a lot of mess for her parents to pick up (hey, I’m the sister. I get to do the fun stuff. Ha.)
