The Daily News Sweet Spot

Nicole Myers said:Oh boy, this actually looks pretty promising... 🙂 It has that unpainted, rustic look—almost reminds me of those little peach candies—but looking closer at the ingredients, it's definitely something else entirely.

Hazelnuts, hazelnuts, hazelnuts with chocolate... 🙂

feralmoose32👍 everything you made looks amazing and I bet it tastes great.

Here’s my attempt at some treats. Usually people go with coconut, but I have plenty of walnuts on hand, so I swapped them in.

I've also got some peach cobblers in the works.😬

Rachel Palmer56, those little hedgehogs of yours are actually pretty adorable. 🙂

They aren't even that hard to whip up 😉hvala Quote🙂

If this forum dies before we get all these recipes swapped... 🕺

If I could actually copyright my recipes, I’d be a millionaire 😬

I’ve been making something similar for years and they always turn out great 👍 🙂
Here is the version from AllRecipes https://www.coolinarika.com/recept/k...9-0242ac120043 I always make a double batch because they disappear in seconds (referring to the AllRecipes one)

You really don't need butter in there, seriously, give it a shot 😉

Look, whenever I whip up a pound of chocolate treats, I usually end up having to 😂

Rachel Palmer56 has such a sweet way with words...

As for those peaches—I have to tip my hat to them... I just can't bring myself to do it...

Oh man, you guys have to see these incredible honey cakes my roommate whipped up.
Honestly, I don't even have to bake anything this year.🤣

I've gotta hand it to the peach growers, though. I just can't get myself into that scene.

Yeah, it takes a while, but I just double up on everything right away. That way I can knock out the whole afternoon in one go and be done with work.🤣

I don't even have to worry about the grill this year.🤣

Put them on, ironcobra13, and drop the recipe.🎉

Recipe? 🕺

12 oz crushed cookies
250 g mascarpone
30 g cocoa powder
80 ml milk

Just mix everything together until you can roll them into little balls. You can coat them in whatever you like—last time I used shaved chocolate and hazelnuts, but this time I’m going with chocolate sprinkles.

It's super straightforward; honestly, you can't get any easier than this. 🙂

Look, when I'm making a whole pound of chocolate, I usually end up having to make 😂
more later on anyway.

I know they're always running low 🤣 and I always have to keep making them over and over 👍

Check out what I whipped up yesterday! 🙂
It’s got this chocolate sponge inside—kind of like those classic chocolate snack cakes you find at a gas station—layered with a rich chocolate ganache...

9 oz mascarpone
1 oz cocoa powder
2.7 fl oz milk

Mix it all together so you can roll them into little balls. You can roll them in whatever you want! Last time I used chocolate shavings and crushed hazelnuts, but this time I'm thinking chocolate sprinkles.

It's super easy—I mean, it doesn't get any simpler than this.🙂

Thanks!
Honestly, I never really make truffles or those little peach-shaped candies or anything like that.
I usually just stick to cakes or pies.
But these little things with the chocolate sprinkles look so cute, I think they'd look great on the table.

Seriously, this is incredible.👍
Foundan?
Did you make this from scratch? What's in it?
That cake is definitely going to be a hit. This combo is perfect.👍Love it.

I ended up picking this up just to frost a cake since I had some leftovers from a previous project

As for the meat and veggies, I actually whipped up my own fondant from scratch—it really is such a breeze once you get the hang of it...

It looks amazing.👍 Seriously though, I can't tell if I'm craving the meat or the cake more because you nailed the look so perfectly.🤣👍
