What's Been Going on the Kitchen? Dessert Edition

This is a new series of posts about the recipes I yoink of Pinterest. 

I've been in the kitchen like a lover in a bedroom. Saucy, I know. Like chocolate sauce, cream sauce, red sauce, pan sauce...it's all here. Every drop of delicious.

Starting with dessert!

Yes. Do make these heavenly bites of decadence. The directions are wonderful. The product is tasty and anyone can make them. I made them at Christmas time when I was under a time crunch. They were beautiful. Do coat them with cocoa, nuts, ect. Otherwise they will be too rich and melt on your fingers. I coated mine in nuts and they were divine. Do share some with me if you make them. These would be great for a beginner.

Frozen Banana Bites

These are my favorite of the desserts in this post. I made them twice in the same week. The ingredient list is tiny, and the recipe is simple. Anyone can make these. I made them without any trouble and everyone in house devoured them.   The only thing...the almond butter was $8.00 for a small jar. But I can make about 6-8 batches with the jar. I will be making these banana bites all summer long.

Twix Cookies

Let's just talk a minute about Twix cookies. Mine, did not turn out looking like a baker's dream. They were sloppy and my chocolate didn't drizzle in perfect little lines. I plopped large globs on top that looked unappetizing. However, everyone liked them. Or said they did. I didn't care for them one way or another.

I do not recommend these for beginners. You don't have to be an expert but this is not a good place to start baking. If you are looking for a little challenge to throw down in your kitchen try these babies out. This is also a good recipe for a small group of 10 or so people.

Now, I know that I promised a post on my veggie garden. I'm about half way through with that posting. But I'm stuck downstairs at work away from all the downloaded pictures I have of my garden. Instead you got this drool worthy post.

Enjoy!
