It’s the first day of school! My girls are super excited, and I have to say that fall really is my fav. time of year. I thought it might be fun to make some little back to school treats for them as a treat on their first day. Since apples always make me think of back to school I made apple shaped truffle pops to celebrate.
I started out making the homemade truffles. The recipe is easy. It’s just chocolate and heavy cream, with a bit of vanilla. Once that set, I used a small ice cream scoop to scoop out balls of the mixture so they’d all be the same size. Once they were rolled in perfect little balls, I inserted a lollipop stick, and put them into the freezer to get really cool and hard.
Then, I melted some red candy melts and dipped them in. Top Tip: if your candy melts are too thick when melted, use a little vegetable shortening or vegetable oil to thin it out a bit.

I used a little bit of green liquorice to create a stem, and a little mini green M &M for a leaf.

Love how these back to school treats turned out. I packaged up a few for some friends and my girls in little cello bags.
Hoping the first days of school go smoothly for you and yours.
