This is usually where I’d make a clever joke about rabbits, but when it comes to my Cinnamon Almond Carrot Cake Muffins, I don’t mess around. Trust me, the joke I had was good. Real good. Make sure you hurry to the grocery store and get everything you need—don’t forget JUSTIN’S® Cinnamon Almond Butter. Okay, I didn’t really have a joke. I couldn’t think of anything.

Great Summer Recipes
Chocolate Hazelnut Banana Smoothie in a clear cup with chocolate drizzle and chocolate chips on a wooden tabletop

I was fiddling around in the kitchen trying to find a way to make the smoothest smoothie. Some of them came out pretty rough around the edges but I think I’ve finally cracked it. My Chocolate Hazelnut Banana Smoothie is smoother than silk, finer than wine, and packed with JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter. If it was any smoother, you could skip it across a pond.

 

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookie S'mores laid out on gold cooking rack, atop white countertop

These Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Cookie S’mores really take a classic dessert to a whole nother level. It’s a chocolate chip cookie, topped with peanut butter, dark chocolate pb cups, and marshmallows. Enjoy it at your next gathering, during a summer bonfire, or just because you feel like it!

Chocolate Hazelnut Babka on a wooden serving board on a cloth beside a cup of coffee on a blue wood background

Rome wasn’t built in a day. All good things come to those who wait. There are probably some other expressions about time and working hard that aren’t coming to me right now. These Chocolate Hazelnut Babkas take a little bit of time, but they are well worth the effort. They use JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter and when served warm are a delicious snack for friends and family.

 

Almond Butter Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Dates on spoons on top of a wooden serving plate on a wood background

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!

 

Almond Coco Nutty Buddies in a white bowl on a white background with chocolate chunks and peanut butter in measurement spoons

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.

 

Chocolate Hazelnut Tart with Rosemary and Orange with 3 small pieces cut and still inside the tart on a white background

Tart. Tart. Just try saying it out loud. The word itself even sounds tart. Do you ever say a word so many times that it doesn’t sound like a thing anymore? If that’s the case, you better stop talking and start baking. My Chocolate Hazelnut Tart with Rosemary + Orange are definitely a thing. I think.
