I’m a total dessert fiend, but I’m not just a sucker for anything sweet. My ideal dessert has to have a little bit of a kick, and in my case, that kick is a combination of sugar and salt. The sweet and salty trend is nothing new, but keeping it in mind can take your desserts from basic to next-level. Here are just a few fun combinations of salty and sweet that will make you want to get in the kitchen ASAP:
- Sweet And Salty Nestle Tollhouse Cookies
Potato chips, pretzels and chocolate chip cookies might sound great on their own, but they’re even better when you combine all three for one seriously amazing dessert.
