In this episode of GoGreenfields, the challenge was simple - create a holiday favorite sweet treat that takes ten minutes or less to prepare. For the sake of full transparency, we did not time River’s decorating, but considering this is the season of giving, we accepted his entry with the understanding that we all got to taste test it. 

Quick Sweet Treat - Terran’s Approach

The holiday tradition of bacon wrapped dates continues in the Greenfield household.  With some speedy assembly, the prep was done in less than ten minutes and the treats were a big hit (on camera and off!). Serve with a cup of rich, creamy, and sweet cocoa!

Quick Sweet Treat - River’s Approach

River was not going to be adding any savory into what was a SWEET competition.  Your sweet tooth is sure to be indulge by his ten minute brownies (give or take fifteen minutes of decoration!) Layer your sweetness by serving with a cup of cocoa!
