2 Ingredient Air Fryer Snickers

These 2 ingredient air fryer Snickers bring the county fair to your kitchen in less than 10 minutes.

Is there anyone out there that doesn’t love fair food?

The blooming onions, pronto pups, chicken on a stick and turkey legs are some of my favorite savory dishes. But if you know me, you know I’m really there for the sweets.

Funnel cakes, ice cream, cotton candy and just about any candy, cookie or Twinkie you can dream up – deep fried!

When I was pregnant with my daughter, I literally dreamed about fair food. And since these 2 Ingredient Air Fryer Snickers are puffed up in the air fryer instead of grease, they are ever so slightly better for you than the real deal at the fair.

See how I made you feel good about this delicious dessert? That’s what friends are for.

Ingredients

1 Package Refrigerated Crescent Rolls
16 Mini Snickers (Unwrapeed)
1/4 Cup Powdered Sugar *Optional for dusting

Instructions

Preheat the Air Fryer for 3-5 Minutes at 350 Degrees.
Place one crescent roll triangle flat on a cutting board.
Place 2 mini Snickers in the large part of the crescent roll.
Using your fingers, fold and pinch the dough until the candy is covered with dough. Be careful to ensure that you "seal" the seams by pinching the dough. This will prevent the chocolate from spilling out during the frying process.
Place each bundle into the air fryer.
Cook at 350 degrees for 6 minutes.
Since the bundles are too heavy, they won't fly around in the air fryer. After 6 minutes, flip each bundle and cook for another 2 minutes.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving if desired. Serve immediately.

Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet

September 22, 2019 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

A tangy and sweet strawberry lemonade Bai sorbet to satisfy your sweet tooth without added sugar.

I am really wanting to get into the fall spirit. We have been making mummy granola bars and Frankenstein brownie bites over here in hopes that fall and Halloween are just around the corner.

But in reality, we had the hottest day of the year here last week and this upcoming week isn’t looking a lot better. A “cold” front is going to lower us down into the high 80’s. Not exactly what I am looking for in a cold front but I guess it beats 100 degrees!

So since it has been so hot and in between my fall decorating, I have wanted something cool and refreshing to end my meals. Last week I made a Bai Mango Sorbet (THM E) and it was so yummy. Since that one turned out so well, I wanted a Trim Healthy Mama S option too.

This Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet is slightly sour and sweet and kind of reminds me of the frozen lemonade cups you can buy at a baseball game or the grocery store.

Strawberry Lemonade Bai Sorbet – THM S

I like to create healthy desserts for my family with no added sugar that they will love. This sweet frozen treat will please your whole family and it uses only Trim Healthy Mama on plan ingredients!

Ingredients

Strawberry Lemonade Bai
Frozen Berry Blend or Frozen Strawberries
Heavy Whipping Cream
Reddi Whip for Garnish (optional)

Free Weekly THM Meal Plan

Making the Blender Sorbet

Add the frozen berries, Bai and heavy whipping cream to your blender. Blend well until smooth. You can serve once blended for a soft serve consistency.

My preferred method is to spread the strawberry lemonade Bai sorbet in a small pyrex dish. Then place in freezer for 1-2 hours.

After freezing for a couple of hours, scoop into a bowl and serve with a squirt of Reddi Whip.

Tips for the Perfect Sorbet

The sorbet is sweet and tangy and from the lemonade. Adding the rich and creamy Reddi Whip will offset that a bit.
I used a mixed berry blend when I made this recipe. The seeds didn’t blend completely in my blender. If that bothers you, you might want to opt for strawberries only.
Freeze sorbet for 1-2 hours prior to serving for a firmer consistency.

Place frozen berries, Bai and HWC into the blender.
Blend until smooth. Add an additional 1/4 cup Bai if the sorbet is too thick or won't easily blend.
Eat immediately as soft serve or spread into a small container and freeze for 1-2 hours.
If left in the freezer longer than 2 hours, you will need to leavit on the counter to soften before eating.

Dulce De Leche Dessert Cheeseball

May 2, 2019 by Stacy Craft 3 Comments

Caramel, cream cheese and churros. Roll it up in a ball and serve it with more churros for a simple and festive treat on Cinco De Mayo (or any day of the week!).

Cinco De Mayo! It is almost here and I have a simple and delicious Dulce De Leche dessert cheeseball to share with you today. Add an easy sweet treat to your celebration and dessert table at your 5/5 party.

If you know me, you know that I would eat cake over steak any day. But when it comes to Mexican food, cheese dip and tacos usually win out over sweets. So this year, I think I will have my queso and then my dessert “queso” ball – the best of all worlds. See what I did there? I promise the cheeseball is better than my jokes.

Dulce De Leche Dessert Cheeseball

I had been eyeing the new Cinnamon Toast Crunch churro cereal at the store for the last few weeks. The box was doing a little Cinco De Mayo dance on the store shelf every time I passed it. Begging me to buy it and make some type of seasonal treat.

I was originally thinking about some kind of churro trail mix but then I thought about using those cinnamon sugar sticks as a dipping agent for a rich dessert cheeseball.

The dulce de leche dessert cheeseball is stuffed with caramel and served with the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Churros. It is rich and full of all the traditional tastes you love in Mexican dessert cuisine.

What You Need:

You only need a few ingredients to make this dulce de leche dessert cheeseball for your Cinco De Mayo party. Here is your simple grocery list:

8 oz Block of Cream Cheese

4 Tablespoons Butter

Nestle’s La Lechera Dulce De Leche

1/4 cup Powdered Sugar

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Churro Cereal

Directions for Dulce De Leche Dessert Cheeseball

Add the softened cream cheese, softened butter and powdered sugar to your bowl and mix until smooth. (This mixer will be your BFF)

Spread the mixture onto parchment paper (I use a reusable silicone mat) and place in the freezer for 15 minutes.

Open the dulce de leche and spread 1/3 of the can (up to 1/2) on top of the cream cheese layer. If you use 1/2 can it will be very caramel heavy. If you prefer to taste more cream cheese over caramel, go with only 1/3 of the can. Save the rest and make mini no bake dulce de leche pies.

I went with 1/2 a can to give you a visual reference.

Place it back into the freezer for 15 more minutes.

Fold the parchment paper or silicone mat in half making the cream cheese mixture into a “sandwich.” Then working quickly start to mold it into a ball form.

Crush 1 cup of the Cinnamon Toast Crunch churro cereal and roll the cheeseball in the mixture.

Return the dulce de leche dessert cheeseball to the fridge for about 2 hours so that it can finish setting up.

Serve with additional churro cereal or even cinnamon sugar pita chips for dipping.

No Bake Dulce De Leche Caramel Pie

November 13, 2018 by Stacy Craft Leave a Comment

No Bake Dulce De Leche Caramel Pie will be the star of your dinner party or Thanksgiving dessert table. Only 3 ingredients and less than 5 minutes of prep make this recipe easy as pie.

No bake dulce de leche caramel pie was developed from my love of the O’Charley’s caramel pie. Anywhere that gives away free pie every Wednesday deserves a special place in your heart. But sometimes you just need to be able to make your favorite restaurant pie at home. And that is where this recipe will change your life. Ok, maybe that is a little dramatic but i think you will really like it!

You may have seen the recipes where you boil the cans of condensed milk for 3 hours until they turn into caramel. You can’t let your water run below the can or it can and will blow up. And your kitchen will be covered in caramel. Your easy pie will be ruined in a flash.

Before I had kids, I made a caramel pie using this method. It is good. It tastes pretty dang close to the O’Charley’s caramel pie. But I knew that I could not do that boiling method with a very busy 12 month old and a chatty 4 year old running through my house. My kitchen surely be covered in caramel that had blown up while I was changing a diaper or fixing a cup of milk.

So I was on the hunt for something easier that would still give me a decadent caramel pie.

No Bake Dulce De Leche Caramel Pie

A caramel pie was on my Thanksgiving meal plan. I knew that if I could get brave enough to boil the condensed milk with 2 kids running around, it would be an easy, make ahead dessert to add to my dessert spread.

I was standing in the grocery store, staring at the condensed milk and picturing all the things that could go wrong with this boiling milk project when I had a revelation. Staring me in the face was a little can of dulce de leche. Do you know what that means?

Some nice little company boiled your condensed milk for you, stuffed it in a can and it can all be yours for a couple of bucks. Genius! Here is what you need in order to make this 3 ingredient no bake dulce de leche caramel pie .

What You Need:

1 Can Dulce De Leche

1 Graham Cracker Crust (I used a pack of the mini crusts)

8 oz container Cool whip

(Optional Toppings: Mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts)

Preparing the No Bake Dulce De Leche Caramel Pie

Open your can of dulce de leche. Spread it into the pie crust.

Refrigerate for a few hours to chill. Top with cool whip and serve.

It is so easy your kids can do it. It literally takes less than 5 minutes of prep to make the pie. The longest part is just chilling it which isn’t even totally necessary but I do like it better chilled.

How Much Does It Cost?

Depending on sales at your local grocery store, you should be able to make this pie for less than $6. Making this no bake dulce de leche caramel pie simple and affordable!
