Completely out of character for my baking and cooking style, but staying on the Halloween and ghoulish eyeball theme, here we have some absolutely delicious Spicy Hot Honey Almond Buckeyes, all decked out for the holiday. Despite being technicolor and ghoulish, they taste really cool — kicked up almond butter with cayenne and honey. And besides, freaking the kids out by biting into an eyeball has to be fun, no?

Long time followers of my website know that the other thing that I have a tendency to make around Christmas Time (in addition to the mountains of cookies) is candy, chocolates or fudge. Sometimes Caramels, sometimes Fudge, sometimes Truffles. So this year, I went with another couple of types of fudge: Coffee Toffee Crunch Fudge and Cookies+Cream Fudge. It’s a super-simply, absolutely foolproof fudge recipe that turns out great every time. And ready in a very short time frame. Try it!

Easter Fudge Combo: Dark Chocolate Walnut Fudge and Triple Coconut White Chocolate Fudge
I have a tendency to make chocolates or fudge around holidays. It’s often completely impromptu — like I didn’t plan on making these two types until this morning, and had I not had the ingredients in the pantry, I wouldn’t have made them at all. I am very pleased that I did have the ingredients though, especially for the white chocolate coconut fudge as it is incredibly decadent!
So these cookies don’t actually look like much, but they do *taste* delicious. The other day, I found this Salted Caramel Crunch stuff at Michael’s Craft Store. Basically, it is hard caramel candy crushed up. I threw some onto and on top of my regular chocolate brownie cookies and the caramel crunch melted, and then hardened up again to make these cookies that are almost like candy. Quite sweet, very unique. You might need some milk with these!

Holiday Fudge Combo 2019:
Salted Honey Almond Fudge and White Chocolate Cranberry Pistachio Fudge
As is my usual routine in December, I try to make some homemade chocolates or fudge as presents for Christmas. This year, I decided to go with some salted honey almond and some white chocolate with cranberry and pistachios. I’d never made white chocolate fudge before, but it turned out nice and vanilla-y. Definitely a treat!
