No Bake Nutella Balls (chocolate truffles)

Here’s a new favourite truffle I added to our Christmas cookie boxes this year. I’ll share with you how to make No Bake Nutella Balls covered in chocolate with a few sprinkles to make them look festive. These were so delicious. I had a hard time not eating all of them myself. You can crush the graham crackers yourself, but I just purchased a box of crumbs.

Honey Mustard Chicken

This was really delicious! I adapted the recipe a little from How Sweet It Is

One thing I did a bit different is that I brushed the honey mustard on both sides of the chicken once it was cooked, and then let it cook for a minute longer on each side. Jessica brushed hers on at the end.


Honey Mustard Chicken
Adapted from How Sweet It Is
Makes 4 servings

Ingredients
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 8oz chicken breasts, sliced in half
  • salt
  • pepper
Directions
  1. Combine honey and both mustards. Set aside.
  2. Heat the oil in a nonstick pan over medium high heat.
  3. Dry the chicken with paper towels (a nice tip from How Sweet It Is), and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  4. Fry the chicken on one side for about 4 minutes. Remember we sliced them in half so they're thinner, but if you keep yours thick, you'll need to cook them longer. Flip them over and cook for another 4 minutes. Brush one side with the honey mustard and let the chicken cook on that side for another minute. Brush the other side with honey mustard and let that side cook for another minute.
  5. I'm serving mine with salad, but you could serve it with rice, potatoes or bread. I'm sure it would make an amazing sandwich with all that honey mustard flavour!
