CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SHORTBREAD

CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE SHORTBREAD

I love shortbread. My Mom would make it every Christmas. I’ve taken a basic recipe and jazzed it up a bit by adding almond flour, dried cranberries, and white chocolate. I like to serve this on a plate and let people break off what they

S’MORES ICE CREAM BAR

S’MORES ICE CREAM BAR

This is one of those OMG! desserts. You can’t believe how good it is. A graham cracker crust, with chocolate fudge which is basically the fudgey part of the dairy queen cakes (double score on figuring that out), toasted marshmallow ice cream, and then brûlléed
