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.

Oven Fries

My kids could eat oven fries every day. They're so yummy! We love to use yellow potatoes, but white or red potatoes would also work.





Oven Fries

Ingredients
  • potatoes
  • olive oil
  • seasonings
Directions
  1. Cut some potatoes into fry shaped strips. 
  2. Soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes. I have soaked them for a few days so I don't have to cut potatoes every day. Soaking makes a huge difference. The fries don't dry out inside like they sometimes do if you don't soak the potatoes first. 
  3. Dry the soaked potatoes thoroughly with paper towel or a clean kitchen towel. 
  4. Toss with a touch of and seasoning of choice. I like dried rosemary, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. 
  5. Bake in a preheated 425F oven until golden. Flip once during cooking, and be sure to use parchment so they don't stick.
