FROM OUR RECIPE BOX- Pumpkin Apple Muffins, Cinnamon Streusel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pumpkin Muffins Cinnamon Schmear Many of us will have pumpkin purée on our shopping list for a Thanksgiving pie. But pumpkin purée is a versatile ingredient that gives color, flavor and moistness to muffins and cakes. In this simple recipe, we blended the purée with a little bit of spice, tart apples and cranberries to make a tender muffin batter. The topping incorporates Cinnamon Schmear to add an aromatic crunch to the muffins. Not too sweet, these muffins would be delicious at a brunch. Or when made up into mini loaves and served with ice cream, this batter makes a colorful seasonal dessert.

(Don't miss our Cinnamon Schmear offer at the end of this newsletter.)

FROM OUR RECIPE BOX - Orange Marzipan Truffles

Orange Marzipan Truffles
This simple recipe will make a confectioner out of any home cook. Gently knead our Love'n Bake Marzipan with orange rind, which gives the paste a hint of citrus flavor. Divide it into small morsels, roll them into balls then dip them in melted chocolate and chopped almonds. You can add a teaspoon or two of your favorite flavoring; vanilla, rose water or orange liqueur would be delicious. Use lemon or lime zest to change the flavor profile slightly. These keep well and are lovely as home made gifts.

FROME OUR RECIPE BOX - Chocolate Rugelach

Chocolate Rugelach
You know how some cookies on the platter always get eaten first? These rugelach are just such a cookie. The crust is flaky and buttery, a perfect foil for the intense cocoa flavor of the Chocolate Schmear Filling. This cream cheese and butter crust is foolproof and easy to make. And is works as well with our Almond and Cinnamon Schmear Fillings. Sprinkle some chopped walnuts over the Schmear before rolling the pastries if you want to add more crunch.

FROM OUR RECIPE BOX - Pistachio Harlequin Cookies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pistachio Harlequin Cookies
This butter cookie is for those who love the delicate taste of pistachios. Our Pistachio Paste is blended along with the butter to make a firm but pipeable dough. We like to make these into fat fingers piped using a pastry bag fitted with the star tip. The ridges in the cookies help hold a light dusting of powdered sugar or chocolate. But the dough works well for thumbprint cookies. Use a scoop to make round balls of dough then indent the center and fill with raspberry jam before baking.
