  • JUSTIN’S® Mini Peanut Caramel Nougat Bars (milk or dark chocolate)

  • Lollipop sticks or skewers (for pops)

DIRECTIONS

    • Dip the flat edge of each cookie wing into melted chocolate and press onto the sides of a JUSTIN’S® Mini Candy Bar. Hold briefly to set.
  4. Add ears
    • Use two whole chocolate chips, pointy side up, on top of each bar. Secure with a dab of melted chocolate.
  5. Add eyes
    • Use melted chocolate to “glue” on candy eyes just below the ears.
  6. Optional pops
    • Insert a lollipop stick or skewer into the bottom of the candy bar before decorating if you want them on sticks.

Great Summer Recipes
Roasted Almond Butter and Maple Glazed Tofu, Squash and Brussels in a close up shot laid on white parchment paper

Roasted Almond Butter and Maple Glazed Tofu, Squash, and Brussels is a genuine triple threat. This dinner delight is vegetarian, full of flavor, and cooks in one pan. It doesn’t take your whole day to prepare either. At any given moment, you are thirty minutes of marinating, a few minutes of tossing ingredients together, and thirty minutes of hands-off roasting away from enjoying a flavor-packed, wholesome, vegetarian meal. Seriously. There’s really no downside to this recipe.
