I consider it a win that I did not eat Halloween candy for breakfast today. Unfortunately, I’m sure my continual snacking on it throughout the day is just as worse. Those mini kit-kats are just so addicting!! Tomorrow I will try to be better… You see,

It’s hard to believe that Halloween is tomorrow. I feel like I’m just now getting used to it being 2015 and we only have two months left in the year! I love Halloween! And although I can’t remember the last time I actually dressed up for

Happy Halloween! For as much as I love fall, I never seem to get that into Halloween. I’m such a baby when it comes to scary things…it’s just not a day meant for me! On the other hand, it is the one time of year I buy myself candy. Another perk? All these adorable holiday treats! Take a look:

It’s finally Fall. That means it’s time for college football, peppermint mochas, Halloween candy (I would emphasize candy corn but I can’t stand it!), pretty colored leaves, apple cinnamon candles, apple cinnamon desserts, the World Series (sadly our man Buster Posey won’t be there…), Thanksgiving prep,

It’s been just over one week since Halloween. Here’s the moment of truth: how much candy do you have leftover? Did you have so many trick-or-treaters you ran out? Did you take the extras to work or share with someone else? Maybe the candy was

Halloween is in one week. One week! How the heck are we already at Halloween?!? Although I no longer dress up, nothing will top 6th grade when my best friend Lauren and I were a bunch of grapes and blew up purple balloons and pinned them to our clothes, I do appreciate that during the last two weeks of October mini candy bars are of abundance. Hence the need to make Candy Bar Fudge!

Again, I’ve made something I normally don’t eat… fudge. But I had the sudden urge to make fudge and I figured the only way I would eat it, without Nutella on hand, was to add mini candy bars.

Fudge may not be my favorite thing to eat but I love making it! It’s so easy and you can add anything to spice it up. Crushed Oreos would be a nice addition scattered on top, or sprinkles, or crushed candy canes for Christmas time. You name it, you can add it!

This fudge is adapted from Six Sister’s Reese’s Fudge. As the name implies, they added a generous amount of Reese’s and they look amazing! I had enough fudge for two 8×8 pans so I took one into work and it was gone in minutes. I may not be the biggest fudge fan, but it sure is a crowd pleaser. Hope you enjoy 🙂
