You know when you can picture something, where it is, what it looks like, what its purpose in your life is – and its everywhere when you DON’T need it – but when you finally, really, ACTUALLY need it it can’t be found?!?! Yeah, well, that’s what I’m dealing with today.
One of life’s cruel mysteries. This is worse than that one missing sock that the dryer ate, from your favorite pair. You know, the one that never slips down in your shoe, and no matter how many times you wear them they are still fantastic? And then one day, you can’t find it and it sets off a cascade of events that just means, today is going to be super not… fun.
I’m projecting, aren’t I?
I can’t find a magazine. It contained a recipe I was going to show you today. And well, this was the runner up in my Instagram “Reader’s Choice Recipe” post for today… and I’m the one who blew it. Forgive me?

That’s not to say that I am disappointed to be posting this gingerbread moose munch. I’m not. But you guys wanted Brandied Plum and walnut Conserve and now, I can’t find it.
It’s in a magazine. In my apartment. It was living on my kitchen counter. And now it’s not. Nor is it in the twenty stacks of other magazines in all the usual places I keep them. Nightstand, book shelf, coffee table, side table, desk, or kitchen counter.
Ben is basically convinced I am one step away from ending up on an episode of Hoarders – Cooking Magazine Edition.
But I can see it, visualize the recipe, the magazine, and EVERYTHING about it. EXCEPT WHERE IT IS!!
So posting this recipe is now just buying me a day or two to continue to tear apart my apartment, and pray that I didn’t magically throw away this magazine, which also happens to be the same one that my friend Rebecca from Foodie With Family was featured in so it’s extra special to me.
If anyone is interested in helping me look, I’ll pay you in gingerbread moose munch. Kapeesh?

But trust me this moosemunch is bomb dot com. I have been on a gingerbread kick of late. This is sweet, crunchy, gingerbready, and best of all topped with drizzles of white chocolate! It makes a wonderful snack, or DIY gift for the holidays!
Need more gingerbread? Got you covered!!

Hope you find that magazine soon! Frustrating I’m sure! BUT, this gingerbread moose much looks so tasty! It’s perfect for the holidays!
Can you say weakness???? OMG! I making this ASAP!
I know how you feel about missing something you KNEW was there! I have been missing a couple of vacuum cleaner attachments for over a month now, and there is no way my husband would have morphed them into a tool of some sort!
I did find a plum and walnut with brandy jam recipe on http://www.larderlove.com that may be something close to what you were wanting to try!
Hope you find the magazine. You may have put it in a “safe” place that you don’t recall right now. Keep trying!
Thank you for this recipe and all that you are doing.
I hate it when I misplace stuff like that! I get so made at myself. I hope you find the magazine soon. As for this moose munch – you nailed it – so awesome!
