Other Holiday Treats

Mint Oreo Cream Cheese Ball

You’re only eight ingredients and five minutes of prep away from the BEST Mint Oreo Cream Cheese Ball. Cream cheese + pudding mix + mint extract and loads of Mint Oreos? This dessert is easy and delicious!

Best Puppy Chow aka Muddy Buddies

This is the best puppy chow recipe! Now, I know you probably just rolled your eyes, because who doesn’t know how to make puppy chow?! Here’s the thing. Most people don’t make it right! In my recipe, the ingredients are the same, so what makes my puppy chow even better? The ratio! More chocolate, more peanut butter, more powdered sugar!

Red Wine Chocolate Pudding Pie
