The holiday season is upon us. You know what that means . . . FOOD! It’s safe to say we here at Spoon are beyond excited for the holidays since they’re devoted to the very same thing our mag is devoted to. We all have our personal favorite on the classic holiday dinner spread, and if you’re anything like me, it’s always dessert. For those of us who are getting a little tired of pumpkin (is that really possible though?), or just want to extend the holiday cuisine as long as humanly possible (bonus points given for it being even healthier than the regular version), I’ve got the perfect recipe for you.
Have a few minutes? A microwave? Some basic ingredients (or access to a dining hall?)
