Halloween Chocolate Candy

My family and I love homemade chocolates…From Atlantic city, New Jersey to Ooti, India… any place that said homemade chocolates, we were there . We would try almost all kinds, cashews, coconut, caramel and our most favorite Almond. I would always look forward to our trips or spend a fortune online to have them shipped to us.

Finally, one day I got down to trying my own and Oh boy! They were out of the world. And since then, everything changed… Now I make chocolates for all different occasions. These were made on Halloween 2020. With the global Pandemic hitting us all so hard, Halloween isn’t that spooky anymore. I am just totally spooked out since the start of this year watching businesses shut down and so many sufferings. But like there is always a ray of hope hidden behind dark clouds and we should always look at the brighter side and so these chocolates were made with a happy heart full of hope.

I made this with dark chocolate, added cream and shortening. Making it a little colorful, I mixed in a few m&m’s, sprinkled some crushed nuts and sprinkles. I drizzled some candy melt in Red and Orange. Finally, decorated it with some bat and pumpkin decoration for cupcakes. I only used things that I had at home, but you can always go fancier.

I made these and cut them uneven like homemade chocolate bars. But you can always get molds and make them any which way you desire. Enjoy!!!

Waffles With Cream

Waffles are one delicious breakfast. Be it any type, Plain, Belgian, Chocolate or fruit. They are always so satisfying and delicious. My boys can do anything to get their favorite waffles. The American food kind of wins over my paranthas every time. I call that to be the blessings of settling down in USA…LOLzzz. The fact that my boys have huge variety to pick from is a delight in its own way and as a mom who loves cooking, I always find their food demands wonderful.

Waffles are super easy. The recipe below is for Belgian waffles. Basically, this recipe can be used for any waffle by adding your favorite fruit or chocolate and the flavors are always so delicious and warm.

I have even served my boys waffle as an after school snack. They always taste extra scrumptious during winters, they love the warm waffles drizzled with maple or chocolate syrup. You can also add some whipped cream and drizzle some chocolate sauce on it with some colorful sprinkles.
