Do you ever have those moments where you experience something throughout the course of your day and it immediately sends you flying down memory lane to an event that occurred in your life many years ago? I can’t help but smile from ear to ear during those sweet moments when something triggers a fun memory that takes me back to my childhood – especially when that memory involves food and family! I recently had an encounter with some pretty delicious candies that did just that, and inspired me to create these decadent Triple Caramel Candy Doughnuts to keep the smiles and memories going strong!
