When I was a little girl I loved to visit my aunt Wanda’s house because somehow she knew what foods and snacks I liked. If it has sugar, caramel, or chocolate there’s a good chance I’m going to love it. I still remember the first time she made Caramel Chex Mix because I fell for those sweet little squares that have had a special place in my heart. I don’t know why I haven’t shared them with you yet, but today, that changes.

White Chocolate Trail Mix

White Chocolate Trail Mix is one of those snacks you can make in less than thirty minutes. I know some people only make it during the holidays, but you can make it any time and enjoy with your family. I think it’s things like this that make the holidays fun so why not make some anytime you want.

The M&M’s aren’t necessary, but I love the cheerful color they add. If you make this recipe at Easter you can add those cute Easter colored M&Ms. Make them on the 4th of July and add the red, white, and blue. Think about it, this can be really fun.

How to Make this Simple Chocolate Ganache Recipe

Lisa Snyder — Tue, 28 Aug 2018 15:39:46 +0000

Does baking from scratch scare you? When I was growing up I didn’t hear words like chocolate ganache, or modeling chocolate, or fondant. I had no idea what they were. If I saw something chocolate on a cake I assumed it would be delicious frosting. Now things are different. We live in a wonderful world that has the internet with all kinds of baking information at our fingertips.

Let’s take a look at the beautiful chocolate ganache. If you’re going to make it you’ll only need two ingredients. How great is that! Wait. It’s almost like magic because you can make different things depending on the amount of chocolate and cream you use. If you use more chocolate than cream you can make delicious truffles. If you use more cream then chocolate you can make a beautiful glaze you can pour over your desserts. Seriously, this is an easy way to make your desserts look gorgeous.

I know, you’re wondering how you can make a truffle and a glaze with the same two-ingredient recipe. It’s easy. Adjusting the amount of those two ingredients and how long you let them rest will determine how your ganache will behave. I know one thing, it’s simple and we’re going to make some today.
