Check It Out: Petite Treats

Wanted to share a fun find with you for the holidays!  Whether you are looking for a nifty gift for your foodies friends or looking for some fun new treats to serve at your seasonal soirees, you should check out Petite Treats: Mini Versions of Your Favorite Baked Delights by Christy Beaver and Morgan Greenseth.

The book may be small and the treats may be tiny, but there are some big taste explosions to be found between the pages -- Blueberry-Lavender Scookies, Kiwi Upsidedown Cake, Tiraminiscule (heehee), Red Velvet Yippie Pies, and Chocolate Chipolte Cream Pie!  And that's just to name a few.  They have a chapter called "Fancy Stuff"...and it IS! 

Just because I'm a giver and I like you guys so much, I'm going to try out a couple of the recipes (Whiskey Maple Bacon Mini Cupcakes anyone?) to share with you.  Sigh...yeah, it's a rough gig, but I do it all for you. 

In case you are in the mood to do a little first-hand experimentation, here's some info to help you track down the soon-to-be newest addtional to your kitchen collection.
