These Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies are filled with mint chips and semi-sweet chocolate chips. No mixer needed and no long chilling the dough needed!

These cookies are a must for the holidays, along with my Chewy Snickerdoodle Cookies top the list and the Perfect Sugar Cookies are right behind them.

MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Warm, gooey cookies loaded with chocolate in every bite is what I am craving right now. One look at these beauties and you will too! This is my favorite recipe for cookies with the chocolate and mint flavor combo. It’s perfect for any time of year, but certainly for the holidays. These cookies are filled with Andes chocolate chips and semi-sweet chocolate chips all mixed in a chocolate cookie dough. Simply irresistible! This recipe comes together really quickly because we are using melted butter so no mixer is needed. Just a mixing bowl and a whisk.

Easy Homemade Nutella – you won’t believe how easy it is to make your own chocolate hazelnut spread at home! All you need is 7 ingredients and a blender or food processor.

You can spread this Nutella on a toasted bagel or use it to make my Slow Cooker Pumpkin Nutella Granola or my Nutella-Filled Pumpkin Muffins.

HOMEMADE NUTELLA

A generous layer of homemade chocolate hazelnut spread on a warm bagel. Doesn’t that sound like a good breakfast? It sure does to me. I’ve wanted to make Homemade Nutella since I made the peanut butter. Because once you try making your own nut butter, it’s hard to stop! It is so easy! No more run-outs in the middle of the night! Oh wait, that’s probably just me. 🙂

Chocolate Pumpkin Cake

Easy Chocolate Pumpkin Cake – quick and easy pumpkin-spiced chocolate cake with two-ingredient chocolate ganache topping. No mixer needed!

Pumpkin desserts fans will enjoy this cake, as much as the Pumpkin Coffee Cake or the Pumpkin Pie Bars.

PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CAKE

Pumpkin spice and chocolate make for a delicious combo in fall desserts and this cake is the proof. The two-ingredient ganache is the perfect topping for this cake. For this cake, I used my pumpkin coffee cake recipe but made it into a chocolate version by adding cocoa powder and chocolate chips. This cake is quick and easy to make and doesn’t require the use of a mixer. Just whisk everything together in a bowl and bake. This cake is soft, fluffy and moist. I always prefer ganache over sugar and butter frosting. It’s silky and delicious. It really complements the cake well.
