I have had a bunch of people ask for some recipes so I am listing all of them here. You can always find this post from the recipe link on the sidebar.
Peppermint Fudge:
1 Package Vanilla Baking Chips
1 Jar Vanilla Frosting
1/2 tsp Peppermint Extract
Red Food Coloring
2 Peppermint Candy Canes
Melt Vanilla Chips in the Microwave, Add frosting and melt together. Add extract, stir. Pour into 9 x 9 Pan. Drip food coloring and swirl with knife. Add crushed Candy Canes. Refrigerate.
Fantasy Fudge:3 c. sugar
3/4 c. margarine
2/3 c evaporated milk
12 oz chocolate chips
7 oz marshmallow creme
1 c. chopped nuts
1 tsp vanilla
Combine sugar, marg, and milk. Boil 5 min. Stir in Chocolate chips. remove from heat, add marshmallow, nuts, and vanilla. Put in 9 x 9 or 9 x 13 pan.
White Chocolate Clusters:
Melt:
1 pkg white baking chips
2 T peanut butter
Add:
1 c. mini marshmallows
1 c. peanuts
1 1/2 c rice crispies
Drop onto wax paper and cool. (don't dilly dally, they harden fast!!)
Peanut Butter Balls:
1 c graham crackers
3 1/2 c. powered sugar
2 sticks margarine
1 c crunch peanut butter
Mix well and roll in to balls. After this I like to put them in the refrig or the freezer so they harden a little so it is easier to dip them.
Turtles!!
Melt: 14 oz caramels ( I use Kraft individually wrapped squares) with 1/4 c. evaporated milk
Add 2 c. pecans after the caramels are melted (2 c. says the recipe. I like to do 1 1/2 c. pecan halves plus 1 c. pecans chopped, they are not so gooey this way and stay together better)
Dip in Melted Chocolate, Cool.
**** very important. You need to drop these by the teaspoon but from MUCH practice I finally figured out that you should spray the wax paper with non stick spray that way you won’t be picking little pieces of paper the bottom of your caramels !

Our new refrig is stainless steel and does not allow magnets:( so what to do with all the stuff I usually hang on the fridge. I found bulletin boards at Ikea and covered them with fabric after appliqueing a little birdie on it. They are hanging righ next to the lockers in the entry area so I can hang things up as soon as Matthew comes home with all his goodies from school.
