So, I decided that I needed to make some amazing homemade bread, finally. I’m always trying to find new things to make that we usually buy from the store. I was reading some articles about how the bread that we're used to isn't actually real bread, and it’s so true! The bread that’s in the store is filled with preservatives so that it can last on shelves longer. There are basically no nutrients in it because of all the bleach that's in it.
Reese’s are my favorite and have been my favorite for a long time. I never thought to make homemade peanut butter cups myself, but I’m so glad that I did. They taste so much better than the store-bought stuff and you can make them in your own unique way.
I made these on Valentine’s Day, for myself, in 2016. At that time, I had not met my husband and I didn’t have a boyfriend. I am a huge advocate for “Treat yourself day”, so that’s what I did.
These are the best gifts if you do choose to share. I’m a sucker for things homemade. It shows that you invested time and put thought into making the item. Even if you aren’t looking to make something for someone else, just make them for yourself! It’s simple, easy and delicious.
My husband devours peanut butter like a madman. Don’t get me wrong, I love peanut butter too. Every once in a while, I’ll have a spoonful of peanut butter and it’s so satisfied. Now, I am a sucker for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich any day and at any time. BUT my husband, he takes it to the extreme. He adds peanut butter to his waffles, to his cereal and to anything else he thinks of. We literally have to buy a jar of peanut butter every time we go grocery shopping.
With that said, is it really good for you?
