Spooky Calzone Snake
I wanted to make some sort of spooky bread for Halloween and came up with the idea of baking a calzone in the shape of a snake. I combined egg yolks with food coloring (and made several colors) and painted it to make a colorful striped snake. It was a hit with the kids!
Mini Croissant Crust Pecan Pies
You won't need to make a pastry dough for these easy mini pecan pies. Fresh, store-bought croissants are used to line muffin cups and hold the sweet pecan pie filling. The croissants bake up into a crisp, flaky, buttery crust with a baklava-like texture. Perfect for your Thanksgiving dessert table! Serve topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or just pick them up and eat them like muffins.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Brownies
As a kid, I loved peanut butter brownies, but my adult taste buds find the available recipes overly sweet with a mild peanut flavor. This updated peanut butter chocolate chip brownie recipe relies on powdered peanuts to boost peanut flavor. I've reduced the sugar by about one-third from the typical recipes. This recipe reflects the best of the three variations that I attempted.
