This recipe is the result of leftovers from our Extreme Patriotic Milkshakes. When creating my milkshakes, I had leftover melted white chocolate and patriotic M & M’s.

Anyone that has spent the day with a toddler knows they’re generally super picky eaters (my kids are no exception). During the baby stages, I was able to puree everything and put it in a pouch (I could kiss whoever created reusable pouches). We introduced our boys to all sorts of foods early and they …
