Butterfinger BarsToday for the Sweet Taste of Saturday I was on the hunt for something different to make, something rich, delicious and decadent. Score! These bars are just delicious and if you love the taste of a Butterfinger candy bar these will be your new favorite. I warn you though; you absolutely cannot eat just one little serving at a time. |

Here’s my quick version or you can add blue cheese and bacon… |

I replaced the canola oil in the recipe… |

My mom was a great pie maker and apple was one of her favorites. She made the best pie crust ever. As a kid the part of the pie I loved the most was the crust that she trimmed off after she fit it into the… |

Peanut Butter Kiss CookiesWhat do you do when it is 100 degrees outside? Bake of course. I know I know crazy right. Thank goodness I have a nice open kitchen that stays cool even with the oven on. These cookies smelled so good baking and are just so tempting that waiting to let them cool slightly was torture! |
