"Try this fun twist on a traditional fair food any time of year. It will satisfy your craving without ruining your waistline.\nPinterestFacebookThese mini fudge puppies are SO easy to make, you guys. They&amp;#39;re pretty much just toasted waffles dipped in chocolate that can be topped with whipped cream or crushed nuts. Oh, and there&amp;#39;s no need to feel guilty; these teeny fudge puppies are portion-controlled and made with heart-healthy nuts and chocolate.\nFor added sweetness, the brilliant foodies who wrote the Tiny Food Party cookbook (where this recipe is featured), suggest dipping them in crushed banana chips. So. Good.\nRecipe for Little-Bitty Fudge Puppies:\nMakes 24You&amp;#39;ll need:\n11/2 cups sweet banana chips\n1 cup dark or semisweet chocolate chips\n24 mini waffles*, toasted\nSweet Whipped Cream or store-bought whipped cream\n*Mini waffles are available in the frozen-foods section of most supermarkets and grocery stores. They come in regular, whole wheat, cinnamon, and blueberry variations, to name a few. If you&amp;#39;re a serious waffle lover, consider investing in a mini Belgian waffle maker.\nDirections:\n\nPlace banana chips into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground. {Tip: Alternatively, place them in a plastic zip-top bag, seal it, and smash chips with a rolling pin.} Pour crushed chips into a small shallow bowl.\n\n\nLine a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler over medium heat, stirring occasionally until smooth. {Tip: Be careful not to let even a drop of water get into melting chocolate, or it will seize up and become unusable.} Partially dip each waffle into the melted chocolate, gently shaking off excess, and then dredge in the crushed banana chips until well coated. Place on the prepared sheet and let chocolate set for about 30 minutes. Serve fudge puppies with fresh Sweet Whipped Cream on top or on the side.\n\nOnce the chocolate has set, you can drop Mini Fudge Puppies into cellophane baggies for gifting or packing into lunchboxes. Just twist the bags closed and tie with a ribbon or baker&amp;#39;s twine.\nYum! Will you be trying these little-bitty fudge puppies anytime soon?\nMore sweet stuff this way...\n\nGals! You will LOVE this cookbook to tiny little bits! I promise.\n\n\nDessert Recipe Idea: No-Bake Blueberry Cheesecake\n\n\nHealthy Recipe: Lower-Sugar Cinnamon Rolls\n\nPhoto Courtesy of Tiny Food Party"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
