I love the holidays! What is there not to love, ok the long lines maybe, but other then that the giving spirit, family, and great food makes the holidays the most amazing time of the year. While I do admit I miss the snow here in South Florida it is a small trade off for warm weather most of the year. I remember when I was pregnant with my youngest son we visited my mom over the Thanksgiving holiday and we were swimming, golfing, and enjoying beautiful weather. Let’s get back to the amazing food. Desserts are one of my favorites, my daughter and I enjoy finding fun recipes and bring something new to each gathering. Thanks to the folks at MyBlogSpark and Better Crocker I wanted to share with you this sweet and salty recipe.
