Christmas Candy. . so addicting and so good!
It’s Christmas time so I’m re-posting this one .. If you missed this last year, don’t miss out this year. This stuff is fabulous!
You know what this is? This is like the candy that Monica (Courteney Cox’s character) from Friends made in that one episode when she made candy for her neighbors. Now I get it. But don’t make this for the neighbors. Keep it all for yourself.
This seriously takes under 15 minutes to make and it’s pure deliciousness. Only problem. You have to wait for it to cool. I was tempted to mix in some peanut butter chips into the chocolate chips to get a chocolatey-peanut buttery spread OR candied ginger on top! or candied bacon on top. . but that would have been CRAZINESS. Maybe I am hallucinating. Damn, I’m going to try adding the peanut butter morsels into the chocolate chips for sure. I will definitely be making this again next week.
If you need to break away from the relatives, in-laws, or even the kids for 30 minutes, make some of this, give it to them and then disappear for some ME time. But, it won’t last long because they will devour this stuff. Fast. And then come looking for you for more.
Happy holidays!

December 23, 2013 at 5:37 pmA coworker’s wife just made me some of this (bless her heart. She knows I bake so she always shares her treats with me) and I inhaled the entire box in about half an hour. SO DAMN GOOD! I’ve always wanted to make this myself but it’s just so dangerously addictive. I love your beautiful photos as always. Merry merry Christmas to you and your family! xoxo
