Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs Copycat

If you are peanut butter and chocolate candy fan like me, you probably enjoy the holiday candy from Reese’s. Pumpkins for Halloween, trees for Christmas, and of course, eggs for Easter. They are my favorite! Even better? This homemade version. After a few trials, I think I got the texture just right! The peanut butter filling is creamy, with a slight crunch. My secret: graham cracker crumbs!

Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies

These Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies are festive and delicious! The classic peanut butter and chocolate combo makes them a favorite for everyone.

I always bake them for the holidays, to serve along with my Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies and Gingerbread Bars.

These soft peanut butter cookies with Hershey’s Kisses candies have been a classic and loved treat by everyone for decades. I start with my trusted soft and chewy peanut butter cookie dough because it makes the best cookies. Then I top them with milk chocolate candy but dark chocolate or even almond works great too! These cookies are a must for the holiday platter!

Christmas Ham Recipe

Make the best Christmas Ham with my simple recipe and tips! This delicious ham with a sweet glaze will be the star of your holiday dinner.

If you have leftovers, don’t forget to use them and make my Leftover Ham Casserole or the Ham and Bean Soup.

Baking ham for the holiday dinner could not be easier. If you are like me and like to buy the fully-cooked bone-in spiral cut ham, the only thing we need to worry about is the glaze. The ham is already cooked and sliced, we need to add flavor. I like the combination of orange juice, spices (cinnamon, cloves, ginger and allspice) with dark brown sugar (to keep the ham super juicy). It’s perfect!
