I have a neice that is DEATHLY allergic to peanuts. They stay away from all nuts in their house.

All of our family goodies that mom always made have nuts in the recipes. (Toffee, peanut brittle, tea cakeks, etc.) I would like to take a plate of goodies but need some ideas.

They even limit some types of chocolate because of being manufactured on the same machines that have nut residue.

I found a recipe for lemon fudge that I am going to try. Brother loves lemon.

Do you have any recipes that may work????

Sprinkle with chopped or sliced almonds. Bake @350 degrees F for 10 minutes. cool. Drizzle with melted chocolate, or sprinkle melk choc chips or hershey pieces over hot cracker/sugar mixture and spread when melted. You can pop the cookie sheet into the freezer for a few minutes to speed cool, then break into rectangles or squares, depending on cracker size.
