I am so excited to have joined in the Surprise Recipe Swap this month!! I love trying out new recipes & finding new foodies friends! I feel like I got pretty lucky this month with my SRS partner ~ I got to pick a recipe out from our wonderful coordinator Jutta from Hungry Little Girl! I was first introduced to Jutta’s blog during the Iron Chef Challenges, which she won the chocolate round by the way!
So I knew I had to try out one of the many desserts that Jutta has to offer! There were a few I was torn between but when I saw her Cotton Candy Bars which she so perfectly called Smurf Bars, I knew I had found my recipe!
These were so good! Princess P absolutely loved them! She looked like a smurf after she got done eating them too!! 😉
