Broiled Grapefruit, Crispy Prosciutto, and Ricotta Crostini

This post is sponsored by Winter Sweetz, but all opinions are 100% my own.

Crostinis are the perfect appetizer to bring to any gathering which is why I partnered with my friends at Winter Sweetz to create this delicious broiled grapefruit, crispy prosciutto, and ricotta crostini. The combination of flavors with the creamy ricotta, crispy and salty prosciutto, and caramelized sweet grapefruits is just out of this world. These crostinis are easy to make, so pretty, and the best part is all of your friends and family will rave about them.

Holiday Entertaining Made Easy

The holidays are upon us, and I don’t know about you but it truly is my favorite time of year! Family and friends gathering, crisp air, yummy food, and toasts to be made about the past year are just a few of the reasons that the holidays are so fun for me. With Layer Cake, throwing the perfect holiday gathering can be simple and beautiful! I love to entertain and truly believe that nothing brings people together more than eating and drinking together. And the good news is, entertaining doesn’t have to be stressful when you have a few tricks up your sleeve to make the day of the party a breeze!

Rosemary Cran Smash

Is it just me or does the week following a holiday seem like the longest week ever? I have no idea how it is not Friday yet, and I am just trying to get through one more day!  To top it all off, Canean has strep throat and a double ear infection so I am on solo parent duty all weekend.  Don't even get me started on how I have been a mad woman running around disinfecting the house trying to make sure that Parks and I don't catch it too.  Lysol mania is is FULL effect around here. Needless to say, a cocktail (or three) is just what the doctor ordered!  My rosemary cran smash is the perfect drink to not only calm those "why isn't it Friday yet" nerves, but you can also use up any of your leftover cranberry sauce from Thanksgiving!
