These seem to be everyone's favorite holiday candy recipe. Could be the melt in your mouth texture, or perhaps the sweet peppermint taste. Could also be the fact that this is the easiest candy recipe around! If stored in airtight container, these can be frozen for a couple months. These can also be made into pretty shapes by rolling in granulated sugar, pressing into candy molds, and dropping them out.

Lemon-Lavender Cupcakes
Delicious lemon cupcakes with a hint of lavender and creamy lemon frosting. These are not your Mama's cupcakes. Updated with a light, moist texture and just an 'ever-so-subtle' Provencal taste. My husband did not know there was lavender in them. He loved my 'secret' ingredient. Try to eat just one... I dare you!
Chocolate Almond Breakfast Donuts
I'm showing you how to make gluten-free, grain-free, low-carb, high-protein donuts that are healthy enough to eat for breakfast, without all the guilt and shame. You might think "that sounds great, but they must taste terrible like all 'healthy' donuts," but that's the thing--they don't! They taste really good, especially if they're covered in chocolate. These donuts may be topped with melted dark chocolate and garnished with toasted coconut, chopped almonds, or dark chocolate chips if desired.
Crispy Chocolate Cookies
I made up this recipe but it tastes very good. The outside will be crunchy. It sort of tastes like an Oreo® cookie without the cream. I love the recipe and shared it with many. I hope everyone loves it.
