So unfortunately this isn't something chocolate.....

However, I do have some adorable little snacks to share. There really wasn’t any particular inspiration for these other than the fact that my mom and I have a mutual love of wasabi and I’ve been dying to use it recently. In fact, I didn’t quite get my wasabi fix with these so I might have to make something else with it for next week.

I made these because a few days ago the kids had some friends over and I was making kid-friendly snacks for them to fuel all of the inevitable energy that gets burned when you get a group of kiddos together. Pigs in a blanket are always a safe bet with kids. I mean, who can turn them down? Anyway, I thought I’d try a variation while I had the stuff ready, so I added wasabi to some of them, hence the green color.

Of course, as I was editing pictures I realized that these would have been perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. You know, with the whole green thing. Totally missed it, didn’t I? I’ll have to catch it next year. Well, and these are kind of green and red so they’d be great when Christmas comes around again. I’m pretty far off with timing my recipes sometimes.

They’re really simple and fun to make. I used powdered wasabi in the dough and I stuffed them with white cheddar cheese (which never fails) and I think they were a big hit. With the older people, that is. I didn’t even try to get one of the kids to eat something that green.

So these had a pretty good amount of wasabi flavor but not quite enough kick in my opinion so next time I’m going heavier on the wasabi. You can also dip them in wasabi paste for that great nose burn that every wasabi lover looks forward to.

As always, the recipe is available upon request. The first request gets an upvote.
