Chocolate Peppermint Truffles
Hi friends! One of my favorite things about this time of year is making goodies to share with family and friends. These chocolate peppermint truffles are amazing. Truly. And, they are so incredibly easy. Please note that my chocolate peppermint truffles are not healthy...in any sense of the word.

I know some people don't care for dates, but this recipe isn't super date-ish. I hope you will ...

Mint Chocolate Brownies
This recipe for Mint Chocolate Brownies isn't health food - trust me. But it's a family tradition for this time of year, so I just had to make them and share the recipe with you. :) I cringed when I realized how much sugar is in them. Yikes, but once a year isn't a bad deal. Besides, when you take them to a friend's house or give most of them away, it's really okay. I’m linking up to Tasty Tuesday and Women Living ...
