Just like the rest of America, I too went and saw the Hunger Games this weekend. I new that from the moment I heard they were making a movie out of the book I wanted to make a recipe from it. But I just couldn’t decide what to make. There is so much food portrayed in the book and the film, the choice was hard. I was stumped until I saw Katniss’ big moment on the screen where she shoots the apple out of the pigs mouth, earning her an 11. This is where the inspiration for Plum Candy Apples was born. Alright, lets get started!

Back in April I reviewed a very cute and absolutely delicious cookbook called Cake Pops (You can see the review here). This past week I took a trip down to Los Angeles to go to a friend’s wedding and visit some good friends I haven’t seen for a while. As a gift for letting me crash on couches I brought along some cake pops. As always cake pops get gobbled up pretty quickly and it dawned on me that I needed to share the recipe! With a few tweaks from the book this recipe will absolutely please anyone you place them in front of. Plus they look just so darn cute.

Reese’s has come out with new mini peanut butter cups and I just had to give them a try. After a few, I couldn’t help but think how perfect they would be inside cupcakes! Because I didn’t have too much time to put these together, I opted to use a cake mix (Boo! Shun!). I know, I know, but before the baking world judges me the recipe includes some frosting from scratch. So without further interruption enjoy this recipe for a little bite of Reese’s in cupcake form.

When I’m not in the mood to bake or cook (which isn’t often) I turn to the tube to get my foodie fix. I’ve limited the list to food shows that are currently running or are about to start a new season because there’s just too many to choose from if I don’t. Ace of Cakes is out of the running even though it’s one of my favorites and Martha, I hate to say it, but your show was much more enticing pre-jail (but I still love her). So without further adieu here are my favorite television shows about food.
