I did that thing where I bought a specific ingredient for a specific recipe and now have a bunch of the special ingredient leftover I need to get rid off. This time it was pecan flour. I added the pecans to a few other recipes but this is the one …
Homemade Maple Cinnamon Candy Corn
I thought it would be fun to make homemade candy corn for Halloween again this year. Last time I made my own, I experimented with a few different flavors but I really liked the maple and cinnamon combination. Since I didn’t want to make multiple versions of the candy this …
