I am excited to share that Monica from HappyandBlessedHome.com <\/a>asked me to help co-host the Family Fun Friday Link Party<\/a>. The party includes hundreds of links from different bloggers every week! Each week I will select 6 recipes linked up on the party page to feature, and they will all be shared in every hosts blog as well. The Family Fun Friday features links from bloggers around the world. We ask that the blog links pertain to the following categories: Recipes, Encouraging Posts for Moms, Family Fun, and Homeschooling. Every week may have a different theme and are tailored to current trends. <\/p>\n

This week, I’m sharing with y’all some simple, delicious looking recipes involving CHOCOLATE! (and they’re not all<\/em> bad for you!)<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What could be easier than a 4 ingredient Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie? This post from Fun Money Mom<\/a> has my mouth watering just by looking at it. S’mores & Chocolate Chips Cookies? A dream come true!! Check out the Easiest Ever S’Mores Chocolate Chip Cookie Pie<\/a> from FunMoneyMom.com<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. A recipe that takes regular popcorn and turns it into an irresistible caramel covered treat! Reese’s Caramel Popcorn<\/a> from Kleinworth & Co. <\/a><\/li>\n
  3. A healthier alternative to Nutella made simply with 5 ingredients. Check out the Choco-Tahini Spread<\/a> from CulinaryGlavors.gr<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  4. With fall sneaking up on us, pumpkin recipes are popping up everywhere and there’s nothing we can do about it.. What we can<\/em> do though is indulge in some Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins<\/a> like these from Debbie at onelittleproject.com<\/a>. <\/li>\n
  5. Skinnyfitalicious.com<\/a> submitted a tasty looking gluten-free Chocolate Chickpea Brownie<\/a> recipe that you may not feel SO guilty about. The base is chickpeas, almond butter, and maple syrup, but you add plenty of chocolate chips to fill the chocolate void (I know I sometimes have).<\/li>\n
  6. These Snickers Fudge Brownies<\/a> are a combination of two delicious treats: Snickers and Brownies!! – a brilliant looking creation from Urban Girl Bakes<\/a>. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
