Inspired Idea: DIY Candy Jewelry. I was quite the candy connoisseur as a kid. I remember sitting with my friends following a night of trick-or-treating, comparing and trading our Halloween loot. From Ring Pops to rock candy to Warheads, candy was more than just tasty. It was fun! Naturally, Halloween involves less candy and more cocktails these days. But that doesn’t mean I don’t still appreciate a cute and kitschy Halloween treat. Here’s What You Will Need: A selection of gummy candies (or other treats soft enough to thread a needle through)NeedleElastic cord You can string your candy in a pattern, but I personally love how they look strung at random.

Healthy 3-ingredient Chocolate Fudge Sauce (no added sugar, vegan, GF) - Izy Hossack. Homemade Chocolate Fudge Ice Cream | GI 365. My obsession with coconut ice cream started when we were living in Calgary, AB where it was sold for upwards of $13 per pint – whew! Even though I’d become more accustomed to the high cost of living, that was still pushing me too far! Instead, I started making coconut ice cream at home, and we’ve never looked back. Even though it only costs $5.50 a pint here in Montana, that’s still quite a bit when I can make it at home for less than half the price. So…money savings vs. convenience – although the money savings should be enough for me, what seals the deal is how easy this is to make.

For the ice cream base, place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth, you may need to use the tamper to keep the mixture moving. The ice cream in the pictures is soft serve, right out of the machine. I’ve tested several chocolate ice creams throughout the search for a good one, (you see the trials I go through…).

Half Baked Harvest - Made with Love. Whoa. Can you guys believe it?!? That is a one line title up there. I honestly never thought I could do it, but I did… and it was pretty easy…. But don’t get used it. Okay, so I just have to say that I do not normally go so heavy on the the sprinkles, but something happened on the very snowy day I made these that made me feel like all the sprinkles would be a good idea.

And they totally were, but normally I am not a huge sprinkle person since I think they just get in chocolate’s way. I blame the snow one hundred percent. Again, I blame the snow. I am trying as hard as I can not to complain about the snow, but I just have to say that it has not stopped snowing (and I do mean snowing heavily) for seven whole days. I feel buried and a little stir crazy and also just in need of every ounce of color I can get my hands on. Actually, it is like that almost every day. Anyway, these truffles could not be better. No shame. Oh, and I have not idea how to say Brigadeiros, but I do love the way it looks.

How-to Make Chocolate Bark. Homemade holiday gifts are one of my very favorite things. I love thoughtful, personalized gifts that are truly made with love! Homemade chocolate bark is probably one of my most favorite edible homemade gifts to make. Whether it’s a gift for a hostess of a holiday party or your dish to share, homemade chocolate bark is super simple to make and you can customize it to no end. The possibilities for flavors and toppings is endless and you can really create something super special for whoever will receive it. This time around I made a batch of dark chocolate bark with coconut chips, dried cranberries and spiced pepitas (pumpkin seeds). When I am making my bark, I prefer to look for a high quality dairy-free dark chocolate and I look for it to be at 70%-85% cacao with no soy lectin, organic and fair-trade, whenever possible. What chocolate bark flavor combos are your favorite? What you’ll need: Once melted, pour the chocolate onto a foil or parchment paper lined baking sheet.

Well it isn't even in the oven yet and I am tempting fate monumentally by making this call, and yet I feel confidant. I have been cooking variations on a standard lemon tart for years making little tweaks and changes along the way, in fact I used to make it so often as a go-to dessert, I got bored with it (how is that even possible - it's lemon tart!?). Ayhoo, I am going to a friend's house for dinner tomorrow night and her lovely 16 year old son is a fan of my tarts (nothing euphemistic there whatsoever), so I thought, why not go for gold and make the ultimate?

Here is why I have called it that, and let me start by telling you what disappoints me in a lemon tart - I mean I barely order them if I am going out for dinner because I hate a bad tart so much! Pastry; 200g butter, out of the fridge for 20 minutes, just a bit soft, chopped into 3cm cubes 1/2 cup icing sugar 1 3/4 cups plain flour the finely grated zest of 1 medium lemon Filling: 7 eggs. Make: Vegan Apple Cinnamon Empanadas. With Halloween right around the corner, these apple cinnamon empanadas already hit the spot. This post comes from our blog intern, Monica! A family farm sits just a few blocks from the house I grew up in.

Every fall, they host a market, selling their harvest, freshly-pressed hot cider and doughnuts, while also opening their pumpkin patch and apple orchard to the public. Carousing through the field of pumpkins and picking apples right from the trees was a favorite tradition. The flavors within the empanadas embody autumn — cooked apples paired cinnamon — an aroma that diffuses throughout the house, bursting through to my nose as it bakes. You will want to use firm and crisp apples. Step 1: Make the CrustVegan Empanada Dough 1 ½ cups all purpose flour ½ teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons granulated sugar ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce ¼ cup shortening or olive oil 2 tablespoons of cold water In a medium bowl, mix your flour, salt and sugar. Step 4: Bake Them! Find more yummy fall recipes on BLDG 25! Pavlova | Cast Iron Cookie. Pavlova. A kiwi classic – Even my father can make one! (being one of two recipes I’ve seen him make – the other is toast) This one’s pretty fool proof – you put everything in a bowl at once, and beat until the mixture forms stiff peaks.

Generally makes 6-8 solid portions – but that depends who’s eating it… We like to finish it with whipped coconut cream and whatever fruit is at hand – best to keep it simple! On whipping coconut cream: There can be a bit of trial and error involved with this – some brands (due to the coconut milk content) fail to firm up/whip no matter how long they spend chilling. Pavlova Author: Cast Iron Cookie Ingredients For the Pav: 4 Egg whites --- Room temperature 2 Cups Castor/Super fine sugar 4 Tablespoon boiling water 1 teaspoon vinegar Pinch of salt Vanilla To finish: 1 Can full fat coconut cream --- chilled in the fridge for several hours before use. 1 Tablespoon icing sugar Vanilla Fruit of your choice Instructions The Pav: To Finish:
