PARTY SWEETS

I had a New Year's eve party in Florida that consisted of fun finger food type of appetizers (i.e. turkey burger sliders and mini steak sandwiches on garlic bread) and crazy amounts of desserts. I displayed all the desserts on this gigantic lazy susan that I found and it truly looked breath-taking! The desserts ranged from cookies to brownies to cupcakes as well as some other fun treats like chocolate covered pretzels and whoopie pies. Rather than creating separate posts for each, just click on the title for their respective recipes. Enjoy!
(2) CHOCOLATE COVERED PRETZELS
There is no real recipe for these. It's super easy. I bought a mega bar/chunk of white almond bark and melted it according to the package directions. I went on to decorate them with English toffee, chocolate sprinkles, and nonpareils. You can always buy the melting chocolates and change up the colors.
These are too good to be true.

I went to Walgreen's and bought these great milk chocolate bars on sale. They were literally chocolate bars (about triple the size of regular Hershey bars) filled with a thin milky-type cream. I very coarsely chopped them up and threw them into the dough. They were a-m-a-z-i-n-g.
Beyond delicious.
An easy chocolate drizzle topped by chocolate mint cream truffle Hershey kisses, these brownies hit the spot.
