Hi Friends - I just found out I need to make some Christmas candy - and I need a recipe for something easy and quick.
I have on hand the following items:

One of my favorites is white candy bark with pistachios and craisins. Melt the bark, spread on wax paper, sprinkle with pistachios and craisins/raisins. Let harden, then break into pieces. You could easily sub pecans or pretzels if you have them.

Did you look at the recipe for White Trash? I think you might have the ingreients for that. I did the 2 ingredient fudge recipe from here but you need Betty Crocker frosting to go with Choc. chips.

Go to recipes.com and put in your ingredients. It will find a recipe for you. I love their recipes.

I always make Peanut Butter Balls and you have all the ingredients for those. Someone else posted about the a few days ago, here is the link. http://www.quiltingboard.com/recipes...s-t172536.html

Why don't you melt your chocolate chips, then dip pretzels in the melted chocolate? Put some sprinkles on the top while the chocolate is still warm. I found some holiday shaped pretzels at Meijer and my DD and I just did them up tonight. They look like you worked so hard on them, but they are super easy. You can also get those chocolate melting disks, instead of chocolate chips.

Ok,,,, here is the recipie........
40 saltine crackers 1 cup butter 3/4 cup sugar 1-12 oz semisweet choc chips 1 8 oz pkg toffee bits....or chopped pecans Line a 15X10X1 cookie sheet with foil Put saltines in a single layer on the pan Melt butter and stir in sugar and boil 1 to 2 minutes Pour over the crackers Bake 350 for 8 to 10 minutes or until bubbly Remove from oven and immediately put the choc chips on top Let them melt and spread evenly Sprinkle the toffee chips on top of that and cool completely Cover and refridgerate for 1 hour or until choc is set Break into pieces and store in air-tight container |
Pretzel bites: I love these
pretzels square or regular choc candy kisses (dark or milk) m&m candy (red and green or not) heat oven 325*, on a cookie sheet place pretzels with space between each, add a choc kiss on top of each and place in oven for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and place a m&m on top and press into chocolate. Refridgerate or place in freezer to reharden the choc. Super easy and attractive, my 5 year old has helped me with several batches of these this year. If you like choc. cover pretzels you will love these. Enjoy! and Merry Christmas! |

PEANUT BUTTER FONDANT 1 lb. confectioners' sugar 1/3 c. butter, softened 1/4 tsp. salt 1 tsp. vanilla 1/3 c. light corn syrup Mix all ingredients until blended. Roll fondant between wax paper to 1/4 inch thickness. Spread with peanut butter. Roll the mixture in a "jelly roll fashion." Wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 2 hours. Cut into slices with serrated knife. |
