Better Butter Happy Hour, Anyone?

It came up one night, like nearly all good things do, over dinner and drinks. Why not try Better Butter in a cocktail? Well-crafted cocktails are in high demand right now and bars all over the city are getting creative with their drink menus.

The major challenge? The texture of peanut butter and how to incorporate it into a drink. It could be done. Think of how successful and well-loved the peanut butter smoothie is.

The obvious choice was the Maple Pumpkin flavor, which could pair nicely with whiskey. The drink tastes exactly like Fall and it certainly shows just how versatile Better Butter really is. Mix it up at your Thanksgiving dinner and your guests will be impressed by your innovative drink.

Maple Pumpkin Mini Tarts

You've likely got a social calendar that's starting to get full. And, I'm willing to bet you've been signed up to either host or bring a dish to quite a few of the events. By mid-November you'll be short on time and your pants will be tighter.

I've got a great recipe for you that takes 10 minutes to put together and its about 50 calories per serving! To top it off, you only need 3 ingredients to get an enviably cute mini-tart.Ingredients

• Mini fillo shell tarts (15 per package)
  
• Maple Pumpkin Better Butter
• 1/4 cup walnut or pecan bits

Directions

1. Heat fillo shell tarts at 350 for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown.
2. Add about a teaspoon of maple pumpkin peanut butter. If you have a pastry bag and tip at your disposable, use this instead of teaspoon for a more structured look.
3. Sprinkle nuts on top.

The tarts are a delish two-bite goodie that won't leave you with a need to loosen your pants!
