Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Mini Pound Cakes!

I had the urge to make pound cake and I hadn't used peanut butter or my chocolate chips in a while (since I have been super "healthy" using fruit) so I decided to make these mini pound cakes! They were super easy to make and easy enough for my fiance to take to work, considering the portions were perfect (you can eat the mini cake in two bites!). I drizzled peanut butter and chocolate on top and it just hit the spot with a cold glass of milk. And, I always like to heat my treat in the microwave for 10 seconds to make it a but warm. Perfect! Take a look!



*Makes: 60 mini pound cakes, give or take

Ingredients

  • 3 cups (400g) all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda

Easy Chocolate Truffles

This is a super easy recipe on how to made simple chocolate truffles. I decided to cave in and make them because my fiance had requested it. He took one bite and said they tasted perfect, so I guess they were a success. They are also gluten and wheat free, how about that! I used three different coatings. You can use what I used or choose your own. Have fun with it!



*Makes: 2 dozen truffles

Ingredients
  • 2 1/4 cups (285ml) double or heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups (300g) chocolate chips or chunks
  • 6 tbsp of cocoa
  • 6 tbsp of butterscotch, chopped
  • 6 tbsp of gluten free pretzels, chopped
