Homemade Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Blossom Lady

Aug 18, 2020 07:12 AM

I’ve had a Reese’s peanut butter cup obsession for as long as I can remember, and my kids love them, too. Unwrapping individually-packaged peanut butter cup after cup until there is a veritable mountain of discarded orange and black wrappers is their usual post-Halloween ritual. And I decided to find a perfect recipe to cook them at home – healthier and better. You will be surprised, but making your own homemade Reese’s cups only takes about 15 minutes and requires no cooking time at all. Ingredients 1...

Homemade Caramel Apples + Topping Ideas

Blossom Lady

Aug 13, 2020 05:39 AM

I know caramel apples are an especially popular dessert during the fall, but I crave caramel apples all year! It is a favorite family treat, we usually slice them up and share, and I’m happy to say my love for caramel apples has officially been passed down to the kids. You can serve these the old-fashioned way, like a huge lollipop, or as sliced apples covered in caramel sauce. The latter method ensures a greater caramel-to-apple ratio. Traditionally caramel is made by heating white sugar, butter, and hea...

Lemon Madeleines

Blossom Lady

Aug 04, 2020 01:36 AM

If you've never had madeleines before, they are kind of a cross between a cookie and a cake. And I would say more cake-like than cookie-like. They are almost like mini-cakes. They use a special pan to make, which gives one side a shell-like appearance. The other side gets a hump classic on madeleine cookies. The glazed variation of this recipe uses a hint of lemon in both the cookies and the glaze, taking this dessert to the next level. Choose any you like and enjoy chewy and delicious cake-like cookie, b...
