Creamy Candy Cane Shake

Feeling like Christmas was already 9 months ago? I’m missing it too and the smells and sweetness of the season. Let’s take a trip down Candy Cane Lane with a sweet, creamy shake recipe!

Creamy Candy Cane Shake

1 cup ice

2 scoops vanilla or peppermint mocha Life Shake

Raspberry Filled Cookie Bites

Christmas Day may be over, but the holiday season is still in full swing! Our final cookie recipe is perfect for any celebration, and would pair perfectly with a glass of sparkling tomorrow 🥂 These Raspberry-Filled Cookie Bites are based on the classic French macaron recipe, and feature all-natural ingredients with the taste of a French bakery!

Raspberry Filled Cookie Bites

Servings: 9 servings

Ingredients

1 cup fresh (or frozen) raspberries

¾ cup + 2 Tbsp. water, divided use

¼ cup raw honey

2 large egg whites (¼ cup)

½ tsp. pure vanilla extract

½ cup sifted almond flour

Instructions

1. To make raspberry filling, combine raspberries and ¾ cup water in small saucepan; cook, over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until berries have broken down and liquid becomes slightly thicker. Refrigerate to cool.

2. To make meringue, place honey and remaining 2 Tbsp. water in small saucepan; cook, over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches 240° F with a candy thermometer.

3. While honey mixture cooks, place egg whites in a clean, large metal mixing bowl; beat until soft peaks are formed. Set aside.

4. When the honey mixture reaches 240° F, transfer it into a clean, heat-resistant pouring vessel (like a glass measuring cup).

5. Slowly add honey mixture (in a thin stream) to egg whites, whisking vigorously until completely mixed.

6. Add extract; continue whisking vigorously until the meringue forms stiff, glossy peaks.

7. Gently fold in almond flour; mix until well blended. Set aside.

8. Preheat the oven to 300° F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.

9. Transfer meringue mixture into a large resealable plastic bag (or pastry bag). Squeeze out any excess air and seal the bag. Cut off about ½-inch of the bottom corner of the bag.

10. Pipe out thirty-six 1-inch rounds, evenly spaced. Firmly tap each baking sheet against the kitchen counter a few times to release any air bubbles.

11. Let cookies rest for 30 minutes prior to baking.

12. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until cookies have risen about an inch. Remove from the oven. Cool before removing from parchment paper.

13. Evenly divide raspberry filling on the flat side of eighteen cookies. Top each cookie with the flat side of a second cookie to make a sandwich.

Servings: 4

Ingredients

3 cups low-sodium organic chicken broth

1½ cups chopped low-sodium nitrite- and nitrate-free ham (approx. 6 oz.)

1 cup dry split peas

1 cup chopped onions (approx. 1 1⁄3 medium)

½ cup chopped carrot (approx. 1 medium)

• If you prefer your pea soup extra-thick, you can reduce the chicken broth to 2½ cups.
