    Perfect for the holidays, this Christmas Gumdrop Nougat Candy is a simple, no-bake dessert. Ideal as a handcrafted present.

    Written by Jo-Anna Rooney

    Twenty-five minutes for preparation

    Time to Refrigerate: Two Hours

    2 hours 25 minutes in total

    Ingredients

    1. Two tablespoons of butter
    2. Two bags of white chocolate chips (225 grams) (AVOID USING Chipits.)
    3. Two packs of small marshmallows (250 grams)
    4. 1/2 cup chopped red and green gumdrops (purchase information is provided in the notes section below)

    Instructions

    • Line an 8-by-8 square baking dish with parchment paper to prepare it.
    • Slice each gumdrop in half. Put aside.
    • Over indirect medium heat, melt the butter, white chocolate chips, and marshmallows together. In order to accomplish this, I place a heatproof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water, creating a double boiler (ensure the bowl and pan fit snugly together). This guarantees that the mixture
    • Stir the mixture constantly until it becomes smooth and melted together, being careful not to boil or fry it—melt is the desired consistency. See the post’s advice up above!
    • Take off the heat.
    • Give it a couple of minutes to cool.
    • Add the gumdrops and stir. Blend thoroughly.
    • Transfer the blend into the ready pan.
    • Since the mixture will be extremely sticky, I spread and pat the mixture into the pan using a piece of parchment paper or wax paper that has been lightly oiled.
    • Before chopping, refrigerate for at least two hours—better yet, overnight.
    • Cut into 60 pieces that are bite-sized.
    • To prevent the candies from sticking together when storing, place parchment paper between the layers.
    • Savor this recipe for nougat.

    Tips for  Recipe:

    • A Guide to Crafting Nougat Candies Regarding melting butter, white chocolate chips, and marshmallows together, I’ve been asked a lot of questions.
    • Since it’s much harder to burn the mixture with indirect heat, I prefer to utilize the double boiler approach. Since the mixture is sticky and takes a while to melt, many people found this procedure difficult.
    • Even though I am aware of that, I believe this is the superior approach. All you need to do is keep stirring and be patient
  • Fried potatoes and onion 

    Fried potatoes and onion 

    Fried potatoes and onion 

    Fried potatoes and onions have a delightfully crispy golden brown exterior and a fluffy, moist core that is bursting with flavors from the sweet and savory caramelized onions and Creole seasoning. Comfort food that’s quick and simple to make and perfect for any time of day!
    To this day, one of my favorite comfort foods is fried potatoes and onions. I make it far too frequently because it is one of my favorites. The potatoes’ melt-in-your-mouth tenderness and crispy golden brown exterior, which are bursting with amazing tastes, are irresistible to me.

    Every bite was so deliciously buttery and garlicky—how could I forget that? Haha! So deliciously fantastic! It also gets much better because of the caramelized onions’ delicate sweetness and spiciness.

    Ingredients fir fried potatoes and onion

    1. ¼ tablespoon olive oil,
    2. ½ tablespoon butter,
    3. ¼ pound thinly sliced potatoes,
    4. ¼ teaspoon each of salt, black pepper, and Creole seasoning (optional)
    5. ½ teaspoon of minced garlic,
    6. ½ teaspoon of parsley for decoration.

    Guidelines for fried potatoes and onion

    • In a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan, melt the butter and olive oil over medium-high heat.
    • After that, add the potato slices to the pan.
    • Season your potatoes liberally with Creole seasoning, salt, and pepper. After two or three minutes, flip it over and let it crust.
    • Add the garlic and onions.
    • For about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are done to your liking, keep turning them over gently until the potatoes have a uniform golden coating and the onions have caramelized.

    Advice & Notes:

    • To ensure a good crisp exterior, soak your potatoes in water for at least 20 minutes. This will help reduce the amount of starch in the potatoes.
    • To prevent oil from spattering, blot dry the potatoes before frying.
    • Potatoes that are packed too tightly in the pan may become mushy and soggy.
    • Verify that there is enough heat in the pan. To get crispy potatoes with a soft and fluffy middle, uncover the pan five minutes before the cooking process is done.

  • Million Dollar Baked Spaghetti

    Million Dollar Baked Spaghetti

    This easy million dollar spaghetti is family-friendly comfort food!

    Ingredients:

    • 1 jar of marinara sauce (or your preferred spaghetti sauce), split into equal parts to measure 24 ounces
    • Uncooked spaghetti weighing 8 ounces
    • a quarter of a pound of ground beef or chopped Italian sausage
    • First, a block of cream cheese, eight ounces in size, softened at room temperature
    • You can substitute cottage cheese for one cup of ricotta cheese.
    • 1/2 cup of sour cream
    • melted butter equal to one tablespoon
    • 1 milligram of this Italian seasoning
    • One-half teaspoon of garlic powder
    • 1 cup of shredded Italian cheese blend, which is approximately 4 ounces (you can substitute shredded mozzarella for this).
    • Granulated Parmesan cheese, two tablespoons’ worth
    • To taste, kosher salt and ground black pepper are included.
    • Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, or thyme, chopped and applied as a garnish are optional.

    Instructions:

    Turn the oven on to 350°F. Use nonstick frying spray or grease a 2-quart baking dish. Cover the bottom of the pan with a very thin layer of marinara sauce (approximately ¼ cup). Put aside.

    Cook spaghetti in a large pot of well-salted boiling water according to package directions for al dente. Drain.

    Brown the ground beef or sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until it is no longer pink while the spaghetti cooks. Eliminate surplus oil. Add the remaining marinara sauce and stir. If desired, add salt and pepper after tasting.

    Add half of the meat sauce (about 1 ¼ cups) to the cooked spaghetti; toss to coat. Set aside.
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, ricotta (or cottage cheese), sour cream, butter, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt (if using cottage cheese, omit the salt), and ground black pepper to taste. Set aside.

    Spread half of the spaghetti mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread half of the cream cheese mixture and then half of the remaining meat sauce over top. Repeat the layers with the remaining spaghetti mixture, the remaining cream cheese mixture, and the remaining meat sauce. Finish by sprinkling the shredded Italian cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over top.

    Bake, uncovered, for about 30 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown on top and the sauce is bubbling. If you want the cheese on top to get even crispier and browner, broil the dish for one or two minutes. Ten to fifteen minutes should pass before slicing and serving.

    Classic tomatoes sandwich

    Throughout the summer, tomato sandwiches are a must. They’re a simple summer treat, with soft bread, creamy mayonnaise, and luscious ripe tomatoes!

    A TOMATO SANDWICH’S WHAT

    Though there are numerous varieties of tomato sandwiches available, my favorite is the traditional one that just has soft white bread, creamy mayonnaise, luscious, ripe tomatoes, salt, and pepper. And that’s it!

    The juice from the tomatoes, together with the creamy mayonnaise, salt, and pepper, makes a dressing-like mixture that seeps into the bread, resulting in an incredibly tasty blend of textures and flavors. I seriously can’t eat just one because it’s that delicious. I always take another mouthful as soon as I release the last one!

    BREAD TO USE FOR TOMATO SANDWICHES: WHAT KIND

    While many fans of tomato sandwiches want soft white bread, I’m a little more lenient when it comes to bread. Since I enjoy a little texture, I’ll bake my bread in the toaster if it’s extremely soft to give it a slight tan. I believe I am in the minority when it comes to my preference for whole wheat bread while making tomato sandwiches. For tomato sandwiches, most bread would fine, but I would try to stay away from extremely chewy or crusty bread, like a baguette, since it will dominate the delicate feel of the tomatoes inside

    Ingredients for tomato sandwich

    1. Half a huge tomato,
    2. Two white bread slices
    3. 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
    4. One pinch of salt
    5. One pinch of pepper

    DIRECTIONS for tomato sandwich

    • If you’re a toastier person, start by toasting the bread. Cut the tomatoes into big circles by slicing them horizontally about their equator.
    • Dredge each slice of bread in a generous amount of mayonnaise. Place tomato slices on top of one slice of bread, and then liberally season the tomatoes and the second slice of bread with salt and pepper.
    • Sandwich together the second piece of bread, cut it in half, and serve right away.
