Two favorite fall recipes combined into one delicious bite. Crispy brandy snaps, a simple caramel shell, filled with rich apple pie filling.

Mustard Grilled Steak with Mango Salsa

S’mores Crêpe Cake
Bringing the campfire fav into the kitchen, this S’mores Crepe Cake recipe has chocolate crepe layers topped with 30-layers of marshmallow buttercream, topped with chocolate ganache and toasted marshmallows.

If that weren’t enough, I decided to pair a favorite wine with the mix. Since I already had a glass out, I decided to throw in just a splash of this beautiful red blend…
