3-Ingredient Peppermint Hot Fudge Bites
Just in time for helping their “Mama” in the kitchen, my boys helped me whip up this tasty dessert today to take to a party. Anyone can make this recipe – it’s so easy! 3-Ingredient Peppermint Hot Fudge Bites made with Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Cups.
If motherhood has taught me anything, it’s that my sons are always willing to lend a hand in the kitchen and to even help with dishes. When I started blogging, my sons were 12 and 14, so for 7 years they’ve known that words and food and photos and a story are what consume their mother’s days. But then they get to reap the benefits, by tasting new recipes and helping in the the kitchen prepare for dinner guests. It’s a privilege to raise these 2 young men, and love on them when they come home for college breaks.
On a seasonably cool morning, I was so grateful that they were home, and that they can could step in and help make this simple 3-Ingredient dessert!
Little pastries, so small and perfect for appetizers and desserts.
Bake to perfection, following their easy directions, for 20 minutes.

I wanted to make these so badly, but 7 stores later no one carried the “cups”. I could only find the sheets or shells. :(
