Anyone who knows anything about me knows that I love to dance. Full-on dad style. If you know anything else about me, it’s that I have a huge sweet tooth. One of my favorite ways to indulge my cravings for sweets is with my almond butter bacon-wrapped dates. I make it with fresh pitted dates, crispy bacon, and JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter. It’s so good it makes me feel like I could dance!

I love to throw parties for friends and family. Sometimes they get a little crazy and we have to tell Grandma to stop dancing on the table. But, when she gets a hold of these almond coco-nutty buddies, it’s really hard to get her to stop. With JUSTIN’S® Classic Almond Butter packed into every bite, it’s hard to blame her. Get down from there, Grandma. You’re going to break something.
You don’t have to go to France to get great French toast; and you don’t have to have to go to a restaurant to get a delicious brunch.

These Peanut Butter Cup Brownies are buzzworthy and exactly what they sound like, a-ma-zing. I’m always thinking up ways to bee more creative with my brownies. This recipe blends JUSTIN’S® Honey Peanut Butter and JUSTIN’S® Mini Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups into a fudgy brownie mix. These never last more than a couple of days at the house, they’re THAT good.
Picture a nutty crust made of almonds, walnuts, and dates, topped with sweet almond butter caramel, and a layer of chocolate ganache. I’ve spent a lot of time perfecting this delicious dessert and am excited to share it with you.
