It’s Time to Bake the Rainbow
Baking a fresh batch of white chocolate macadamia cookies for your family is a small pleasure in life. If you’re anything like me, you definitely love trying out new recipes and flavors. Now, imagine those cookies….but with a splash of color! The same goes for a batch of blondies or even that ready-to-bake sugar cookie dough you picked up at the store. Yes, it’s now possible to make them even better.
Nestle’s latest release is the perfect baking companion. Funfetti Morsels are exactly like chocolate chips—except way more amazing. They’re basically drops of vanilla frosting with colorful specks of Funfetti. You can bake them into homemade cakes, cookies and even pancakes. Who wouldn’t want to double up on the Funfetti fun?
