HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
This recipe is a trick and a treat! The trick is that it’s vegan, gluten free, low sugar, and paleo but you would never guess it! The treat is that it’s absolutely delicious! Forget snacking on leftover Halloween candy and make this to enjoy tonight!
Hope everyone had a great weekend… it’s so rare I have my life together enough to post on a Monday, aka I’m actually home on a weekend without it being filled with plans. I was so grateful to have a relaxing weekend at home between 3 trips in October and 3 more, plus a marathon in November. I did a lot of recipe developing and lounging. It was so needed for a mental break and for the blog.
Were you guys out this weekend? Dress up in any fun or interesting costumes?? Maybe it’s because I turned 30 this year but I honestly have zero desire to dress up myself…. although I loved seeing all the cute kids dressed up for various events this weekend. Tonight I will miss the trick or treaters since the hubs and I are heading to the Eastern State Penitentiary to visit their haunted house- it should be a blast! Everyone be safe and don’t eat too much candy!!

Such a wise way to use your skillet. Also, nothing better than the chocolate / pumpkin combo! #Drool.
Thanks girl! I forget to use my skillet so this was a great recipe to bring it out for!
I love nut butter and pumpkin mixed together. Everyone’s all crazy about pumpkin pie, but I want chocolate with my pumpkin!
Tomorrow I’m sharing a savory pumpkin recipe if you’re into that too!
This looks amazing! I love skillet cookies… especially when they’re a little under cooked. Mmmmm!
This one is definitely undercooked- super soft and gooey!
Yummm. This looks amazing! Definitely pinning for later 🙂
Thanks! Hope you made it 🙂
