Salted Buckeyes

Salted Buckeyes

One of my favorite gift ideas to give during the holiday season is homemade goodies. There are so many options of sweet treats to make, but buckeyes are a classic homemade sweet treat that my mom has made during the holidays for as long as I can remember. I added my own twist on this recipe by adding a little flaky salt on top to balance out the richness of the buckeyes to make them even more irresistible. This recipe for salted buckeyes is one that you are going to want to make every single year.

Cherry Peach Crumble

Cherry Peach Crumble

If you are finding yourself knee deep in summer fruit like cherries and peaches and can’t eat them fast enough before they all go bad, then I have a solution for you. A summer crumble is the best way to use up any fruit that you have on hand and it is always a crowd pleaser. I tend to get excited and overbuy all of the fruit in the summer and end up with a handful of fruit that ripens too quickly on me. Instead of letting it go to waste, I like to make a yummy dessert out of them instead. This recipe for a cherry peach crumble is truly summer in a bowl, especially topped off with a little vanilla ice cream.

Honeycomb Ice Cream

Real Deal Honeycomb Ice Cream

Honey is a pantry staple at our house and while it’s delicious on toast, in oatmeal, yogurt bowls and even dressings, I am slightly obsessed with honey in ice cream. My husband recently worked in Scotland for a few months and he couldn’t stop talking about an ice cream he had there with real bits of honeycomb in it. I knew I had to try a version myself and I am so glad that I did. Homemade ice cream is one of my favorite things to make all summer long and this recipe did not disappoint. This recipe for real deal honeycomb ice cream is for all of my honey lovers out there.
