Happy New Years!!! Probably if you're anything like us you've been looking forward to the end of this weird year fro a while now. And though we might be bringing in the new year differently than normal this way, you can still bring some fun to the home with this easy take on a fancy champagne cocktail, perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth!
Ingredients: - Champagne - Vanilla Icing - Sprinkles - Cotton Candy How To: 1. On the very edge of you champagne glass spread a thin layer of vanilla icing, then roll the edge of the glass in some festive sprinkles. This is optional, and just really for extra looks! 2. Grab off a small section of the cotton candy and put in the bottom of the champagne glass. Whatever color/flavor you decide is how the champagne will taste! For best flavoring the cotton candy should go halfway up the glass (while fluffy) 3. Pour champagne directly into the glass over the cotton candy, which should make the cotton candy melt. If there are still chunks at the bottom, feel free to mix it until fully dissolved. 4. Serve and enjoy! This is a super easy way to make a fancy cocktail at home, and make it look super fancy! If you're a kid at heart (with a huge sweet tooth) like us, feel free to give this a try! We know this past year has been hard and crazy for all of us, and it's been hard not having our usually sense of normally being stuck at home. We hope the year 2021 is much better for all of us, and brings everyone much more joy. We thank you all so much for being patient with us this year, and hope that soon next year we can get back into more food adventures to bring to you all. Stay safe and healthy, and happy New Year. -Love from us both, E Squared

We LOVE Christmas! From the beautiful decorations and lights to the presents to the overall holiday cheer, it's our favorite time of year! One of our favorite things to do is bake at Christmas. This recipe is for Spritz cookies which are a traditional holiday cookie made every year. There are many versions of Spritz cookies, but this one is the best one that we have found so far! It makes 6 dozen cookies, so you'll have plenty to share (or eat, we won't judge 😉)
It's important to try to continue holiday traditions as much as possible, especially this year. This year has been hard for so many people, and we could all use a little holiday cheer. We want to encourage you all to reach out to others if you are feeling depressed or anxious and know that there are helplines out there such as NAMI and the national suicide prevention hotline that you can call to receive support as needed. If you would like information on these resources, send us an email at: [email protected] or google "NAMI" for more information. Without further ado, here is our Spritz cookie recipe! Please let us know in the comments if you make these cookies. We would love to see pictures of your holiday baked goods, even if they aren't Spritz cookies! Spritz Cookies Makes 6 dozen cookies Ingredients:
Directions:
Maybe I’m the only weird one, but even in the winter I tend to prefer cold drinks. Don’t get me wrong I love the classic hot cocoa..... but I just prefer it cold sometimes! Here is a easy fun spin on hot cocoa, which ends up more resembling a slushy or Starbucks Frappuccino.
Ingredients: - 4 oz. Chocolate (this could be chocolate chips, your favorite chocolate bar, anything the is easy to melt!) - I tablespoon of your favorite hot cocoa mix (I personally love the one by Ghirardelli if you haven’t given that a try yet) - 1-1.5 cups of Milk How to make this into something delicious: 1. Melt down the chocolate either by microwave or stovetop until smooth 2. Add in the hot cocoa mix 3. Stir in the milk and let it cool to room temperature. 4. Once cool in a blender add your mixture and ice and blend until smooth. Add more milk if needed to get the right texture. 4. Drink away! P.s- if you find this too savory for your taste you can always add a little sugar to sweeten it up! |
Both of us really love to cook, and we each have come up with some pretty good recipes. We will share them here!
