    Easy Cashew Bark

    I bought some Christmas themed coffee mugs that I plan to fill with cashew bark and wrap with pretty cellophane for the kids to give as teacher gifts.

    Mexican Cocoa Fudge

    A delightful combination of dark chocolate and cinnamon with just a tiny bite to it from cayenne pepper!

    Peppermint Divinity

    Divinity is much easier to make than you might think! Try this peppermint version!
