This will just be a quick little post - it's Christmas Eve after all! Actually, since it's past midnight, it's CHRISTMAS! Merry Christmas everybody and happy holidays! It's a bit late for you to make this pie for Christmas dinner, unless you're not the one cooking the dinner, but it is a stellar pie nonetheless.

Another quick, easy, and super tasty stocking stuffer! You can add whatever nuts or seeds you want to this recipe, just keep it all within the weight limits. This makes a good-sized batch, so if you're only making it for one person, go with half of a recipe.

Christmas is right around the corner, everybody! Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few weeks, you already know this. Are you prepared? I... sort of am.

I have gifts for almost everybody. These cookies were part of a little goodie bag for my friends, including these marshmallows, these cookies, and hazelnut brittle (which will be on the blog in a couple days). They're easier to make than they look, but they taste and look amazing.

Have you been running around, doing your last-minute Christmas shopping in the freezing cold and crazy crowds? Have you been wrapping presents all day long and have the paper cuts and two empty rolls of tape to prove it? Have you been figuring out your Christmas menu and are freaking out at all the ingredients you have to buy? 

You need a break. You need some proper hot chocolate, a couple marshmallows, and a comfy blanket.

Peppermint and Chocolate Swirl Marshmallows

When I was a kid, my brother told me that marshmallows were made out of ground up hooves, horns, tails, and bones of cows and pigs. I hardly ever ate marshmallows as a kid, to no surprise. To be honest, I never bothered to actually look up what marshmallows were made of or how they were made until about 6 months ago. Embarrassing.
