Chocolate Truffle Cheesecake
Recipe Reviews 4 reviews
Holiday Peppermint Bark
I also added a chocolate base layer. I used Ghiradelli bittersweet and it worked really well. I didn't realize that white chocolate is much harder to melt into a smooth consistency- I had to add oil and it was still kind of clumpy, but it worked fine. Next time I will try the double boiler method to get better results. If your white chocolate is a little thick like mine was, make sure you press the peppermint into the chocolate so when it hardens it stays in there well. Lastly, next time I will use a bigger cookie sheet so the bark is thinner. I doubled the recipe and used a small cookie sheet. The bark was a little thick and hard to break. Can't wait to make these again!

Cinnamon Apple Pancakes
We really enjoyed this recipe. I substituted the oil with 1/2 cup applesauce, and I think next time I'll use more apples. To avoid them becoming wrinkly (others complained of this), cook the pancake completely on one side before you flip it. It took a little practice to make them look pretty, but these were great! Definitely making them again.

Apple Dip
I had this at a bridal shower and it was a big hit. One suggestion: chop up a couple Scores Bars candy and mix in the dip. It adds a great crunch!
