Winter is already here and there will be Christmas parties,holiday events, or just you watching home alone at home with some food and drinks.
I decided to come up with these dips simply by looking for stuff in my cabinet in my kitchen for a nice warm snack. I came across the usual oreos,chips and granola bars. I got board of this so I decided to come up with certain constructions to make sweet dips. Sweet dips that are great to dip any sweet food in there, trust me it is delicious.

Simply this is great for snacking, I dipped everything from twinkies to strawberries in my dips because they are all sweet and sensational, it is a change from the usual snacks you eat it can basically be a revolution.
Today I am going to recreate accessible snacks / treats into dips which are simple, and also beautiful. Marshmallows,peppermint,oreos,chocolate. Everything wintery and snackish. This is also obviously great for parties,pot lucks,gatherings,etc as people will want more and more from this. smile because the revolution is coming.
