Torch ’em: 18 Delicious Crème Brûlée Recipes

Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

If I don't have these stocked in my pantry, something is wrong. These tiny dollops of sweet peanut butter encased in the ideal amount of smooth dark chocolate are downright addicting. They're super easy to snack on thanks to their small size, but they also are insanely good as a cake garnish, ice cream topping, or cookie inclusion.

Teensy Candy Bars

Like tiny lil' Snickers bars, these are another easily snackable Trader Joe's candy due to their small size. Each micro chocolate features a layer of creamy nougat covered in caramel and peanuts that provides a super satisfying texture. I fear I've demolished a bag within 24 hours a couple times now...

Gourmet Jelly Beans

Every bite of this Trader Joe's candy is different, which always makes eating dessert (or a snack... or a midnight snack...) enjoyable! This boxed medley of jelly beans actually contains 18 different flavors for you to distinguish just by tasting 'em. Plus, you can create and hone in on your very own flavor combos by popping two or three in your mouth at a time – yum!

This is one of my absolute favorite TJ's candy picks to add to my cart and share with a pal or two because we can deliberate about the exact flavor notes together! We love a bonding moment.

Candy Coated Chocolates

This M&M's dupe from Trader Joe's is just as good as the original. Each bite is what you'd expect: creamy chocolate bits covered in a crunchy colored coating – but the main difference with these is that the color in the candy shells is actually derived from natural dyes, sourced from things like spirulina, annatto, red radish, turmeric, beetroot, and red cabbage! My fave part about this Trader Joe's candy is it comes in a resealable bag that makes storing and transporting 'em entirely seamless.

Super Sour Scandinavian Swimmers

While some Trader Joe's fans will truly ride or die for the OG Scandinavian Swimmers, I ague that the sour version is way better. The sourness of it all really enhances the snacking experience – plus, you still get to enjoy all the same flavors of the "swimmers," like red berry, huckleberry, strawberry, and orange. I love sneaking this bag into the movie theater to bypass expensive prices – I refuse to snack on any other candy (other than the aforementioned iconic PB cups) these days.

Dark Chocolate Orange Sticks

I was once skeptical of combining orange and chocolate, but this Trader Joe's candy really helped me see the light. It's so tasty. The sweet, citrusy flavors of these orange jelly sticks work stunningly well with the modest dark chocolate coating, but the texture of each component is truly what makes it the best.

Lofthouse Soft Spring Frosted Sugar Cookies

These super soft cookies are way too easy to shovel into your mouth – and sometimes, that's just what you need. This $4 dozen is geared up for spring with a darling butter yellow frosting and plenty of rainbow sprinkles that bring on all the festive feels. They're perfect for bringing to the office to share with your coworkers or just keeping around at home when a sugary snacking session calls to you.

Baker's Corner Strawberry White Chocolate Blondie Mix

Name a better spring flavor combo than strawberry and white chocolate, we dare you! All this $3 blondie mix asks of you is adding one egg, some butter, and water, then baking it up to dessert-y perfection. This treat would be stunning at an outdoor potluck after you've downed a satisfying amount of hot dogs and spring cocktails.

Benton's Belgian Chocolate Easter Cookies

Easter is upon us, after all! These $3 cookies are such a tasty way to celebrate, too, since they come ready to snack on in festive egg and bunny shapes. Each one is delightfully dipped in Belgian chocolate and coated in sprinkles for added crunch. These would totally amp up any Easter-themed charcuterie board or dessert spread, thanks to their cute shapes!

Bake Shop Carrot Cake Sandwich Cookies

Eek – we need to be eating these, ASAP. Filled with an insanely sweet cream cheese filling, this $5 Aldi dessert find boasts two thick, chewy, carrot cake-flavored cookies that form a yummy little dessert sandwich.

Jar Joy Death By Chocolate Cheesecake Jar

We love chocolate so much that the phrase "death by chocolate" doesn't even scare us much anymore. That's why we're absolutely stoked to snag this $1.49 jar stuffed with chocolate cheesecake! It's presented in the best way possible – a single serving – meaning you definitely don't have to share.

Bake Shop Blueberry & Cherry Strip Danish

Yummm. We definitely want to keep this pre-baked danish in our kitchen for an easy breakfast to enjoy with our morning coffee (or as a cheeky midnight snack, if we're being honest). With brighter notes of both blueberry and cherry, each bite is filled with plenty of springtime flair. Plus, it's topped with a sweet sugary glaze that makes every serving taste like heaven!

Choceur Easter Mini Chicks Shaped Chocolates

Stop, these are so cute! Shaped like lil' chicks and wrapped in coordinating foils, these Easter chocolates bring spring joy no matter when or how you enjoy them. They'd be excellent as Easter basket stuffers, too!

What is the movie Sinners about?

When twin brothers Smoke and Stack return home for a new beginning, they're initially met with welcome arms. But as daylight turns to dusk and gives way to nightfall, unspeakable horrors expose themselves to the townspeople. Evil in the form of vampires consume everything in their path and it changes the brothers in ways they could've never prepared for.

It's set in the 1930s South which means we'll get dialect, fashion, music, and more themes from that time period.

Where was Sinners 2025 filmed?

According to IMDB, Sinners was filmed in the following Louisiana cities: New Orleans, Bogalusa, Donaldsonville, and Labadieville!

Who's Hailee Steinfeld starring as in Sinners? 

Hailee Steinfeld will be starring as Mary, the love interest of Stack. Since not much is known about her outside of that, we're assuming their romance is forbidden. What we do know is Hailee's a fan of her character and the overall themes of Sinners.

According to PEOPLE, the actress shared more of her thoughts in her newsletter BEAU SOCIETY March 28. She wrote, "...This role is far removed from what I've done, but that's part of what drew me to it! I feel like I'm stepping into my own more and more as I get older, and this role mirrors that."

She also shared that it didn't take much for her to be a part of Sinners. "The minute I heard Ryan Coogler, I was in. Then I read his script and was like, 'Holy s---, this feels like a massive undertaking.' The story is so complex and layered," calling herself "fortunate and honored to even be remotely considered." So, how does Hailee Steinfeld feel about Sinners as a whole?

She says it's "thrilling and sexy and daring and dangerous — with bold representations." Calling this type of movie a "first" for her, she continued sharing her excitement about it on the TODAY Show while chatting with Jenna Bush Hager and John Legend. She said, "This role, I feel just challenged me in ways that I was ready for." She also praised Ryan Coogler for being "the most incredible writer and director," which continues to speak to his amazing sight!

Is Hailee Steinfeld on the Sinners movie soundtrack?

Plus, the actress revealed she recorded new music for the Sinners soundtrack! She shared the news in her BEAU SOCIETY newsletter and gave subscribers an inside peek at how her song "Dangerous" was created.

She wrote, "Eleven days ago, I found myself somewhere I haven’t been in over two years: a recording studio. Not just any recording studio, but Jimi Hendrix’s Electric Lady!" Hailee then proceeded to thank everyone who helped her record the song.

She thanked Ryan Coogler for his unwavering belief in her role as Mary and "also as a musician," before expressing gratitude for Coogler's wife Zinzi, a producer for the Sinners movie. "She was a guiding force throughout the entire process," Hailee said of her and also commended her "calm confidence" for bringing "a perspective to this song that made it click" for the actress."

Setting her sights on Ludwig Göransson, Hailee noted how "his music tells stories that will burn a hole in your heart" and calls working with him "beyond a dream." She was also stoked that he "brought in Sara Aarons, an amazing songwriter (via phone call), to help with the top line."

Lastly, Hailee complimented violinist and orchestrator Serena McKinney Göransson (Ludwig's wife) for bringing "so much soul and precision" to "Dangerous." She applauded Serena's "supportive female energy" and said "watching her work with Ludwig was like watching people paint with sound."

Overall, Hailee feels her new song has a "hauntingly beautiful score" that's perfect for Sinners because it has "emotional tension and quiet unraveling" in it.

Although we can only listen to a snippet of "Dangerous," the full song releases next Friday, April 18.
