Two Irresistable Chocolaty Holiday Sweets

I've moved these two great recipes to my Crafty Lady Recipes blog.  So head on over there if you're planning to  make them.

I didn't want to delete the post entirely because of all the lovely comments!

  1. Oh yeah, both the clusters and the bon bons look and sound like they would be delicious. I checked out the blog you linked to and there are some good recipes there. You have a great photo of your bon bon. Nice presentation.

  3. Apart from loving your photo, I loved the fact that they were photos of Chocolates, because I'm a chocolate freak.. I adore chocolate..

  4. Thanks, TechnoBabe...chocolate is good stuff.

    I think you'd like those cashew clusters, Blissed-Out Grandma. Thanks for stopping by!

    Well, I'm glad you enjoyed the virtual chocolate treats, M. And glad you enjoyed the photo, too. Thank you.

  6. Now I WANT chocolate! lol The first one is a must try for me, thank you for sharing this recipe and I'll see if Micheal's has the star glitter, that's be amazing and very impressive. I prefer the dark chocolate, I'm going to alter your recipe a tad bit and I'll get back to you on what I think of these, for some reason I just know I'm going to love them!

    I love your photos, they make the chocolate treats so desirable, they look like they're made for royalty. :-)

  12. YUM. I think I'm going to need me some of those peanut butter yummies. What really stands out are your photos to illustrate. Nicely done!

  13. Blueviolet, they're so easy. Hope you like them, too.

    Thanks, darlin. I love tweaking recipes, too. Let me know how yours turn out.

    Well, Hilary, my logic is this: granola is good for you and cashews are protein and dark chocolate is good for you, too. Now if I could just keep it at one or two, I'd be fine. :-)

    Thanks, Zuzana. The photo of the bonbon is a little dark but otherwise, it was fun shooting from a different angle. I hope you try the recipes...will you need to convert the measurements to metric? There's a good chart here: http://www.epicurious.com/tools/conversions/

  14. So glad you are going to try these, Betty. I don't think you'll be sorry!

    Hi Ramona...let me know if you do try these. Bet your hubby will love 'em.

    Thank you for stopping by, Fran...enjoy! These are really easy treats to make. Enjoy.

    Thanks much, imbeingheldhostage. They're just as delicious as they look. If you make 'em, you'll love 'em.

  15. Tomorrow is apparently National Chocolate Covered Anything Day, so everything in this post would be perfect. Not that we need an excuse to eat chocolate. :)

  16. Hi Danelle...Welcome and thanks for stopping by. You're right...don't need an excuse for eating chocolate. Dipping squares of your yummy Nutella fudge in chocolate would qualify, too. Might have to try that!

  17. The Bon-Bon looks very delicious . . . Yummmmmmm :-D

    Greetz,

  19. I just happen to have some extra cashews in the freezer. What a delicious treat!

  20. Cheryl, these are delicious! I added a wee bit more chocolate, used raspberry and blueberry granola and YUMMY. Instead of a teaspoon I used a melon baller and it worked wonders. Thank you for this fantastic recipe. I've got a wonderful recipe for Nanaimo bars if you'd like it.

  21. Xiaolu, this would be a great time to use those cashews! Thank you for stopping by.

    Well, that's terrific, darlin...I'm always tweaking recipes so I know where you're coming from. I'd LOVE the recipe for Nanaimo bars...why don't you do a post on them?

I just love reading your comments. It's part of what makes blogging so much fun, don't you think?

Unfortunately, because of a recent spat of spam, for awhile I'll be reviewing comments before publishing them.

Thanks for understanding.
