My game plan going into the holiday season always includes two things. 1. Do as much shopping as I can online. And 2. Make homemade gifts. Clicking a button takes a little bit (OK, a lot) of the fun out of gift-giving and holiday shopping. I fill that void by setting aside time to make some of my gifts.  Whether it be having a craft night to make homemade gift bags or spending the day in the kitchen making edible presents (the best kind of presents).

This cranberry almond salted chocolate bark is an easy recipe to whip up and hand out to neighbors, coworkers, or friends. I topped my bark with dried cranberries and almonds, but pistachios would be a nice addition (keep the red and green theme going), or keep it nut-free and add other dried fruits like apricots, or even candied ginger.

Bag the bark in cellophane gift bags and tie with festive ribbon and holly or pack it into holiday tins that the lucky recipient can reuse at their next cookie exchange.

If you’re on Pinterest in September or October, it’s likely you’ll come across a few hundred Halloween recipes. While there are a variety of creepy, crawly treats to make for your kids or Halloween party guests, you can’t go wrong with a festive Halloween brownie. Add these black and orange cheesecake brownies to your spread along with other Halloween party recipes like graveyard dip and jack-o-lantern stuffed peppers.

Halloween Cheesecake Brownies brownie batter

Cheesecake brownies are the best of both worlds. The sinfully rich chocolate brownie (dyed black, of course) on the bottom will satisfy any chocolate-lover’s sweet tooth this Halloween. The silky cheesecake top layer (dyed bright orange with food coloring) completes this Halloween dessert. It’s far better than any candy bar the kid’s bring home from trick-or-treating, trust us.
