Question

does anyone have an easy christmas treat i can make for my family?

Answer 1

Colored rice crispy treats

Answer 2

Here's one that nobody could mess up (unless you bake it for to long) and taste's delicious, a guaranteed hit with anyone! Simply go to the grocery store and buy some toll-house pre-cut chocolate chip cookies or similar (the ones that come in squares of dough that you break apart and bake) Also be sure to buy a bag of those mini Reese's peanut butter cups (the ones that are about the size of a quarter.) Now all you have to do is pack the cookie dough into a mini-muffin pan, you may want to break each dough cube in half if 1 cube seems like to much for your pan. Next hollow out a hole in the center of the dough with your thumb and place 1 peanut butter cup inside. Once all the cookies have the candy placed in the center your ready to bake them (should finish baking in less then 14 minutes) the chocolate covered peanut butter cup will melt into the cookie and the results are fantastic! You can also try covering the top of the peanut butter cup with more dough if you'd like to surprise your family and friends. Hope you enjoy this easy to make treat and have a great holiday!

Answer 3

A Christmas Cake





white cake mix

white frosting

candy canes

coconut

green food coloring



Its simple and easy but looks great and tastes pretty good too.

I always make the cake in a bunt pan just because its that much more feistive. frost it like always then in a air tight jar or bowl put oh about 1 cup of coconut and a few drops of the food coloring shake it up nice and well until all the coconut is covered. Sprinkle the cake with the coconut then crush the candy canes and sprinkle those on top allowing them to drip down over the bottom of the plate..



nice and simple but yet very very feistive. Have fun and Merry Christmas.

Answer 4

A great Christmas treat is a plate of warm chocolate cookies. Here are the instructions off the top of my head:

Mix 1 cup white sugar, 1 cup brown sugar, 1.5 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 cup softened butter, and 2 eggs slowly for 30 seconds and quickly for another 30 seconds. Then, while mixing very slowly for 2 minutes, add 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon table salt, and 1 teaspoon baking soda. While mixing slowly for 15 seconds, add 12 ounces of chocolate chips. NOT optional: add some love. Now use a spoon to put the dough onto 3 baking sheets to make 36 cookies. You need to bake it at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 11 minutes.

This is a great treat for your family, and it's pretty easy because I just recalled it from memory!

Answer 5

if you want easy, try Rachael Ray's Christmas fudge wreath. She made it on 30 minute meals last year. It is no fail. I know, I am no fudge expert-mine never turns out (and I don't know why as I am a great cook and baker) but this turns out.

Five Minute Fudge Wreath

1 (12-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate morsels

9 ounces (3/4 of a 12-ounce bag) butterscotch morsels

1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 (8-ounce) can walnut halves

1/2 cup (a couple of handfuls) currants



8-inch cake pan, lightly greased with softened butter

Candied cherries, red and green, for garnish, optional



Place a heavy pot on the stove and preheat it over low heat. Add chips and milk and stir until chips are melted and milk combined. Save the empty condensed milk can. Stir in vanilla and remove fudge from heat. Add nuts and currants and stir in immediately.



Cover empty condensed milk can with plastic food wrap and center it in the greased cake pan. Spoon fudge into pan around can, making sure to recenter can if it drifts.



The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or 2 the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with "holly" made from cut candied red and green cherries. A wreath left plain can be garnished with a pretty fabric bow when serving. Chill covered in the refrigerator and slice fudge very thin when ready to serve, a little goes a long way.

Answer 6

Add green food coloring to the marshmallow/butter mixture for Rice Krispie Treats. Instead of using Rice Krispies, use cornflakes. When the treats are still in the saucepan but cooled just a bit, turn the mixture out on waxed paper. Fashion the mixture into wreath shapes. Before the wreaths cool completely, put cinnamon candies (the little ones that come in cake decorating containers like sprinkles) inside some of the flakes and fold the flakes over them to hold them in place when they cool. You can tie red ribbon around the tops to hang from the tree. These travel well too.

Answer 7

Microwave Fudge



3 Cups semisweet chocolate chips ( or any flavor you want)

1 - 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk

1/4 Cup butter or margarine

1 Cup walnuts ( or any kind you want)

1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla



Place all ingredients except the nuts in a bowl.

Microwave at medium until the chips are melted, 3 to 5 minutes.

Stir once or twice during cooking.

stir in nuts

pour into well greased,8x8 pan

Place in the refrigerator until set.

This is real ez to make and has always set up for me -where other fudge didn't.

Answer 8

No, but I have a treat for myself when I'm around my family.

Ingredients



1 Large Bottle of Whiskey

optional extra added ingredient

1 Case of Beer



Preparation.

For those who do not wish to take in the taste of the whiskey, simply twist the cap off of the top, and pour in to a 4 to 8 ounce cup. Repeat this process as often as necessary, or until you actually feel like leaving the television to commence in conversation.

For those who wish to appear non-alcoholic, mix in a few ice cubs and a dark cola beverage. Start by putting the ice cubes in the cup, fill the glass about a quarter of a way to the top. Pour in Whiskey. Mix with a spoon, or fork, or knife. If the first drink is too strong, drink it anyway. If it is too light, pour a little more whiskey in.

If you constantly find yourself having to go back to make this preparation throughout the day, maybe you should check to make sure that you are at the correct family's gathering spot.

Answer 9

Reese's peanut butter cups (the ones that are about the size of a quarter.) Now all you have to do is pack the cookie dough into a mini-muffin pan, you may want to break each dough cube in half if 1 cube seems like to much for your pan. Next hollow out a hole in the center of the dough with your thumb and place 1 peanut butter cup inside.

You can also try covering the top of the peanut butter cup with more dough if you'd like to surprise your family and friends. Hope you enjoy this easy to make treat and have a great holiday!

Answer 10

This is an unusual and fun treat that I made once with my family for once Yule-Tide/Christmas season-



Rock Candy!



What you need is any kind of stick (Popsicle sticks, wooden skewers, even the cute lacquered ones with the knobs are available at craft stores), sugar, water, food colorings that you feel are appropriate for the season, and peppermint flavoring. You'll need a metal pot that you can scrape and a metal or plastic stirring spoon.



Fill the pot with water and bring it to a boil. Begin adding the sugar, stirring it so that it will melt consistently. Keep this up till it reaches the consistency of syrup. Add peppermint to flavor and coloring to desired shade. Turn heat down to a simmer.

Going one at a time, dip your sticks in the mixture, letting each coat harden. Continue this until the wanted amount of candy is on the stick.

If your mixture should harden in the pot, reheat it. If you would like to make clean extra easy, use those new Reynolds Wrap Pan Liners in the pot.



Hope you like it!

Answer 11

OREO TRUFFLES





1 Package Oreo cookies, Finely Crushed

1 (8oz.) Package Whipped Cream Cheese

1 Pkg Wilton’s Dark Chocolate pieces (Buy at Any Craft Store)

1 Pkg Wilton’s White Chocolate Pieces, or any color (optional)



1. Crush the Oreo cookies in food processor or blender.



2. Mix the crushed Oreo cookies with the whipped cream cheese until it forms a solid ball. (Blends best if you use your hand instead of a spoon).



3. Form the mixture into 1 inch balls, or any size you like.



4. Put the balls into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or in the freezer for at least 10 minutes.



5. Melt the entire bag of Wilton’s chocolate either in a double boiler or the microwave for 1-2 minutes. Do not add butter to the chocolate when melting.



6. Roll the oreo balls in the chocolate and place on rack to dry. Work quickly, one ball at a time, because the chocolate hardens fast! Re-melting the chocolate may be necessary about halfway through.



7. Decorate the tops with the second color. To decorate the truffles with the second color, you can use a Ziploc freezer bag as a small pastry bag. Put the melted chocolate in the Ziploc bag. Cut the corner of the bag and use the bag to pipe the second color on top of the truffles.



NOTES:



– Wilton’s also makes tools for handling the dipping and rolling of the truffles. You can also use a meat fork (two prongs). It is best not to use a regular fork.



– Instead of using a second color as decoration, you can reserve some of the Oreo crumbs in which to roll the truffles. Alternatively, you could roll the truffles in cocoa powder.

Answer 12

Here is a great treat. Buy Betty Crocker peanut butter cookie mix. Buy some red and green candy sprinkles, the clear sugary kind.Buy some Hershey's kisses. Make the cookie mix, simple, simple, roll the dough into small balls. Then roll the dough into the sprinkles. Smoosh a Hershey kiss into the middle, bake 8-10 min. until golden and the chocolate just is melting. They are wonderful, and so simple. Your family will love 'em, and you are in and out of the kitchen in about 30 min. Start to finish. Merry Xmas!!!!

Answer 13

This fudge recipe is REALLY easy, and VERY good! I've been making it since I was little, it was a treat we were allowed to make since it used the microwave and not the stovetop. It's definitely a family favorite. People are always shocked by how easy it is when they ask for the recipe.



3 cups (18 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips (or milk-chocolate chips)

1 (14-ounce) can EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk (NOT evaporated milk)

Dash salt

1/2 to 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract



In the microwave on about 70% heat for about 3min30s, melt chocolate chips with EAGLE BRAND® and salt. Remove from heat; stir in nuts (optional) and vanilla. Spread evenly into wax paper lined 8- or 9-inch square pan.



Chill 2 hours or until firm. Turn fudge onto cutting board, peel off paper and cut into squares. Store leftovers covered in refrigerator.



You can make different flavors by adding mix-ins: peppermint pieces, marshmallows, flavored chips (peanut butter, butterschotch, white chocolate, etc.)

Answer 15

I don't quite remember what its called, but all you need is chocolate and peppermints.

All you need to do is melt the chocolate and spread it out onto a cookie sheet. You would want the chocolate to be a little less than a quarter inch thick. Smash up the perpermints,(you can use the candy cane kind too) and just sprinkle it over the chocolate. Let it cool down, then just cut it up into bite size pieces.

This is definitely something that you could include young children in.

To melt the chocolate, I find it easiest to break them into small pieces and put them in a ceramic bowl. Then place the bowl in a larger bowl/ pot filled with boiling water.

Answer 16

I"ve got this recipe that is a HIT with everyone around the holidays.



5 cups Cheerios

5 cups Corn Chex

2 cups Reese's Pieces or peanuts

1 1 lb bag of M&M's (I use red and green at Christmas)

1 10oz. bag of pretzels



Mix together in a large bowl

Melt 2 12oz bags of white chocolate chips with 3 Tablespoons vegatable oil in the microwave for about 2 minutes (be careful not to over cook or will carmelize). pour chocolate over themix and toss thouroughly. Cool on wax paper.



This is really tasty, super easy to make and it makes a huge batch! Enjoy!

Answer 17

Make chocolate chip cookies or apple pie... yes, very original, but also easy to make. If you just want to make something simple, those two treats will do. Not really on the fun side, but at least your house will have a warm holiday smell! Show your family you're ready to get into the spirit of Christmas...

Answer 18

People who only bake from scratch would be horrified at this, but my family is always looking for tons and tons of the cranberry, apple, pumpkin, and other breads made from the Pillsbury Quickbread mix and added to with my own choice of nuts, fruits, sugar/cinnemon, or glaze. I use a hair less water than recommended and a hair (gross, eh?) more oil than is recommended and am generous with my own choice of toppings.



I bake a bunch of them at once, cut them in half (end to end), and then slice them into small squares that I wrap in plastic wrap and leave (and keep refilling) plates of them out beginning Christmas Eve and on through the day or two after Christmas (and Thanksgiving too).



Besides seeming "holiday-ish", having them around means there's an "all you can eat" kind of thing (particularly handy for those with growing/grown sons).

Answer 19

Cheese Bake



Butter a 13 x 9 pan and layer the following :



12 oz sharp grated cheddar

5 finely chopped jalapenos

12 oz grated Monterrey Jack cheese

Pat the above down slightly, and then pour 7 beaten eggs over it

Bake 325 for 45 minutes. Let cool and cut into squares. It will have a custard consistency. Tasty!

I like to make a candy pie for holiday occasions.



50 Hershey's Kisses

12 miniature Reese's peanut butter cups, chopped into about 6 pieces per cup

1 large tub (1 lb.) Cool Whip, room temperature

1 small tube, M&M Minis or 1/4 cup red and green M&Ms

Pretzel Ring Chocolate Treats

(Recipe from back of Better Maid Pretzel Rings)



Better Maid Ring Pretzels (or any other brand)

Cover cookie sheet with parchment paper and lay out pretzel rings. Place an unwrapped Hugs or Kiss in the center of each pretzel ring.



Bake 1-2 minutes.



Remove and immediately place an M&M in center of each Hug or Kiss, pushing down so the melted chocolate fills inside of pretzel rings.

Answer 29

hard candy



2 c. sugar

1/2 c. white corn syrup

1/2 c. water

1 tbsp. vinegar

Pinch of salt

1/2 tsp. food coloring

1/2 tsp. flavoring



In a heavy saucepan, stir the sugar, syrup, water, vinegar, and salt together until the sugar is dissolved. Cook over high heat until it reaches the hard crack stage (340 degrees F. on candy thermometer). Remove from fire and add coloring and flavoring. The candy can be divided and made into different flavors, green peppermint, red strawberry, or cinnamon, yellow butterscotch, etc. When the flavorings are stirred in the candy may steam. at this point you can either pour into a flat aluminum baking pan and let harden and crack with the handle of a cake knife or pour into candy molds. dump the pieces into a bowl of powdered sugar and sift the excess sugar off the candy. (optional...used to keep from sticking together)



peppermint popcorn



3 quarts freshly air-popped plain popcorn, unseasoned

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup light corn syrup

1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract

Answer 30

Microwave Peanut Brittle

takes about 5-8 minutes

1.5 cups of raw, shelled Virginia peanuts (leave the skins on)

1 cup of granulated sugar

1/2 cup light corn syrup

1 teaspoon of butter

1 teaspoon of vanilla

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/8 teaspoon salt

Mix the peanuts, sugar, corn syrup and salt together in a microwave-safe casserole dish until well mixed

Cook in a microwave on high for 4 minutes; open and stir the mix well; then cook on high for another 4 minutes

Open, stir in the butter and vanilla, then microwave on high for a further 2 minutes

Finally, remove from the microwave, open the dish, add the baking soda and stir quickly until the mix is light and foamy

Immediately pour the mixture onto a lightly-greased baking sheet, spreading it out thinly.

Allow the mix to cool - then break it into small pieces and store in an airtight container.

Tip: The trick to making thin, tender peanut brittle is to keep the baking sheet(s) you use warm. I recommend heating them in a conventional oven at around 200o F (about 95o C) before you spread the peanut brittle mix. This should allow you to spread the mix 1cm to 2cm thick without it setting up.

Answer 31

Answer 35

K, really easy and very good cookie recipe, it's my mom's and I only make it at Christmas because it is very special:



Butter Cookies:



1/2 lb unsalted butter, softened (let it sit out until it is soft; I actually prefer to use 1 stick unsalted butter and 1 stick margarine because I think that using all butter makes the cookies too rich)

1/2 cup powdered (confectioners') sugar

2 cups flour

1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional, walnuts or pecans)

1 tsp vanilla extract (NOT imitation!!!!, spend bucks, use the real thing!!)



Cream butter/margarine and powdered sugar together until well blended; add flour, nuts and vanilla, combine well. Drop by level (more or less) teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet; bake at 325 degrees about 15-20 minutes, until just golden on top. Remove from cookie sheet; allow to cool slightly, maybe 5 minutes, and using a flour sifter or handheld strainer, sift tops with more powdered sugar while cookies are still slightly warm. A big hit, guaranteed - if anyone in your family has an allergy to nuts, the nuts can be left out and will not affect the overall qualities of the cookie.



If any ?'s, contact me through Yahoo, be glad to help, most cookie recipies are relatively easy, can be customized to suit your tastes, and can be made ahead of time and frozen or refrigerated until you are ready to do the baking!



Blessed be, and happy holidays to you and yours!

Answer 36

Cream cheese fudge: Melt 1 stick of butter and mix 3 oz. cream cheese into it until smooth. Add 1 pkg powdered sugar, approximately 1/2 C powdered cocoa (more or less to your own taste) and 1 teaspoon vanilla and mix until the whole thing is smooth and fluffy, then roll into logs and wrap in waxed paper. Refrigerate and slice as little or as much off of the logs as you want to eat at any given moment. This can be dressed up by adding decorations to the slices with frosting in a tube, i.e., by piping on holly leaves, etc.

Ok, these were sooooo good and I was shocked at how easy!



Peanutbutter Snowballs



Ritz Crackers (round)

Peanut butter

1 brick of Almond Bark (white) or white chocolate



Have kids help - it's so easy!



Apply a thin layer of peanutbutter to Ritz. Top with another Ritz to make a little sandwich. Try not to eat it.



Melt Almond Bark in double-boiler until it's liquidy but not molten. Remove from heat source but leave the top over the hot water to keep it liquidy.

After dry, serve them up with a big glass of chocolate milk or hot cocoa. Delicious! You can't eat just one!

Answer 38

There's the classic Rice Crispy treats, brownies. Also can make a cake. Go to Michael's or any craft store, look for a tree-shaped cake pan. make a cake, get white, or vanilla frosting, color it and then add sprinkles and other small candies for decorations. look at www.kraftfoods.com and they should have some stuff too. Sugar cookies are really easy and fun too. My nephews love to decorate 'em. Happy Hol\idays, and enjoy!

Answer 39

Nice Q, best of the best for you through the holidays.



My own opinion, and I've never yet found anyone who wouldn't "sneak" more than just one. Fresh baked "Chocolate Chip Cookies."



Easy, fast, and so much a delight to smell as they bake. They might seem "Plain" but you can decorate the way they are offered, gifted, served, to compliment the Holiday.

Merry Christmas, to you and yours.

Answer 40

My aunt makes this every year.It tastes a little different but who knows...you might like it. Here's what you need



*Fruit by the Foot (any flavor)

*Twizzlers Pull and Peel (cherry)

*and rice crispie treats (homemade or store bought)



Here's what to do....





-Take 3 little peice of your twizzler (about the size of 1/2 your index finger)



-Wrap about an inch thick peice or your rice crispie treats around the twizzler (make sure that the twizzler is the same length of the rice crispie treat if the twizzler is longer, you can always cut the extra off, but if the rice crispie treat is long it's harder to fit the size. and also...MAKE SURE THE RICE CRISPIE TREATS ARE STILL A LITTLE WARM!!!)



-Then rip off a peice of the fruit by the foot and wrap it around the rice crispie and twizzler. (make sure that it's the same diameter as the entire thing)



When you done, it should look a little bit like sushi! Happy eating and Merry Christmas!

Answer 42

My step mom always makes these really good and easy treats, I'm not sure what they're called.

1 cup butter or margarine, softened

4 cups quick-cooking oats

powdered sugar

Answer 49

By easy, you mean little or no cooking, but not purchased from a store? First choice would be "drop cookies", next Rice Krispie treats (you would have to melt marshmallows or buy the marshmallow creme). Once you get into actual cooking, fudge is a sure winner.

Answer 50

Heat oven to 325



Take a small pretzel, and place one rolo (candy) on top each mini pretzel, place in oven for 3 mins. (long enough to soften chocolate but not melt it totally)

When they come out of the oven lightly press and place one pecan in center of warmed rolo.



Let cool and let the chocolate reset and become firm.



Everyone thinks they taste a little bit like the turtle candy.



Enjoy!



Hint: I used a regular baking sheet, place a piece of tin foil in it, this way when I am done warming the pretzel and candy, and after I have put the pecan on the top - all I have to do is move the candy treats to a plate to cool, and throw away the tin foil making for a fast and easy treat and clean up. (A quicker way to get the candy treats to set up faster is to move them to a plate, put in refrigerator for approx. 20 minutes.)

Answer 51

okay what you do is buy:



pretzel rings (the circle ones)

lots of rolos

and walnuts.



then, on a cookie sheet (no wax paper, aluminum, spray, just a plain cookie sheet) lay out a bunch of those pretzels flat on the sheet.

next, put each rolo big side down into the pretzel circles.

then, put it in an oven at 350 for about 10ish minutes, check every once in a while to see if rolo is squishy, then take out.



immediately use the walnuts to squish the rolos down into the pretzels (one walnut per treat). the treat will look like a round pretzel as a border, chocolate filled with a walnut on top. They might not sound good but they really are, plus they are quick



i made them for my teacher gifts, they loved them.

Answer 52

Ok. Well, get some cookie dough, then before you put it in the oven, add 2 pretzels on the top of the cookie, then, choose either a hot tamale or a m&m.

Sugar cookies, along with assorted cookies are great. Homemade is better. But you can always buy the dough and make them into little shapes.



A twist on things are always great. why not try pudding? It goes great with the carol and great with the taste buds.

The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or 2 the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with "holly" made from cut candied red and green cherries. A wreath left plain can be garnished with a pretty fabric bow when serving. Chill covered in the refrigerator and slice fudge very thin when ready to serve, a little goes a long way.

You could get two differ kinds of the pre-made cookie dough. Make sure that they are the kind that are in the roll (not pre sliced.)Then take one of the types of cookie dough and make it falt. The roll up the other kind of dough into a ball and place it on the falt one. Then you take the first kind of cookie dough and make it flat also and put it on top of the cookie dough with the ball of dough on it. Press it down so it looks like ravioli. Last bake it at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.

Buy some premade sugar cookie dough (in the same spot as the biscuts in the grocery store) and use cookie cutters to cut out your favorite shapes. Then buy a few containers of white icing and use food coloring to turn them the colors you want...frost and decorate your cookies.

Last mix then bisquick and sausage with 1 cup of shredded cheese. Spoon onto a cookie sheet and bake @ 350* until brown.

MONKEY BREAD!



I saw this on Good Morning America, made by Cindy Crawford, I've been making it every Thanksgiving Eve and Xmas Eve since.



Frozen bread dough (Bridgeford, or some other store brand). Thaw out one loaf. Once thawed, take small portions (like 1 inch), roll into a ball, dip in melter butter, roll in mixed combo of cinnamon and sugar, and drop into bundt pan. Keep doing this until all is gone. Cover with towel and let rise overnight. Next a.m., bake according to bread directions (I think 350 for 35 minutes, something like that).



Very important variations: Chop walnuts or almonds, and put those on the bottom of the bundt pan before you start dropping in your bread balls. You can also add canned fruit in between the bread balls: apple, peach, apricot. Bake as above.



Note: They now make monkey bread in the freezer section of your grocery store. Don't buy it! This is so much fun for the kids to make and do on thanksgiving and xmas eve, and makes such an easy "breakfast" in the a.m. It's one of the "memories" that they remember.

Mexican Wedding Cakes or Russian Tea CakesIt seems no matter the country, there is a version of this cookie. Whether you call it a Russian Tea Cake, a Mexican Wedding Cake, an Italian Butter Nut, a Southern Pecan Butterball, a Snowdrop, a Viennese Sugar Ball or a Snowball, this melt-in-your mouth, shortbread-like cookie is a favorite not just during Christmas but at weddings, christenings, and other festive occasions. Use whatever ground nut you prefer (pecans, hazelnuts, almonds, or walnuts), just be sure to use a good quality butter as this will determine the flavor of these little gems. The most distinctive characteristic of these snowballs is their coating of powdered sugar and to show this off, you may want to serve them in small foil candy cups.



Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.Toast Nuts: Place nuts on a baking sheet and bake for about 8 minutes, or until lightly brown and fragrant. Cool. Put the cooled nuts and 2 tablespoons (20 grams) of the 1/2 cup of confectioners' sugar into a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Finely grind the nuts and set aside. In the bowl of your mixer cream the butter and remaining confectioners sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes). Add the vanilla extract. Add the flour and salt and beat until combined. Stir in the nuts. Cover and refrigerate the dough for about 1 hour or until firm. Form the dough into 1 inch (2.54 cm) balls and place 2 inches (5 cm) apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake about 15 -20 minutes, or until light brown in color. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for about 10-15 minutes.Meanwhile, line another baking pan or tray with parchment or wax paper. Sprinkle about 1/2 cup of the confectioners' sugar on the bottom of the pan and then place the slightly cooled cookies on top of the sugar. Put the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar in a fine strainer or sieve and then sprinkle the tops of the cookies.Store in an airtight container. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

1/2 cup (50 grams) toasted nuts (pecans, walnuts, hazelnuts)1 cup (227 grams) unsalted butter, room temperature1/2 cup (55 grams) confectioners' (powdered or icing) sugar 1/2 teaspoon (2 grams) pure vanilla extract 2 cups (280 grams) all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt Topping:1 cup (110 grams) powdered (icing or confectioners) sugar

Make Turtles.



You need: whole pecan halves, caramels (unwrap them), chocolate chips, an oven, butter, a cookie sheet, a spatula, and a microwaveable glass dish.



To prepare: butter the cookie sheet, heat the oven to about 250, unwrap the caramels, and melt the chocolate chips in the microwave (stir frequently 'til completely melted); you can add a bit of butter to the mixture if you wish.



To assemble the turtles, arrange the pecan halves in groups of three on the buttered cookie sheet. Place one unwrapped caramel on top of each group of three pecans.



To cook: Place in pre-heated oven for 5-10 minutes until caramel is soft. When caramels are very soft (they don't change shape, even when hot), remove from oven and using a buttered spatula, gently press the caramel over the pecans. Using buttered spatula (or knife), spread some of the melted chocolate chip mixture on top of each "turtle". Let cool completely. Enjoy.

Answer 280

Chex cereals usually prints a recipe not only for their Chex Mix on the box, but they have a sweet version called Muddy Buddys that's really good; it uses chocolate, peanut buter, and powdered sugar.

Answer 281

I've made this before, and everybody liked it. I didn't make it in a wreath with the candied fruit; I just made it lin an 8x8 cake pan like regular fudge and omitted the currants. I also let it sit in the fridge for about an hour so it would really set. I replaced the chocolate chips with peanut butter for one batch (no nuts or currants), and that was just as good.



Five-Minute Fudge Wreath



1 (12-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate morsels

9 ounces (3/4 of a 12-ounce bag) butterscotch morsels

1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 (8-ounce) can walnut halves

1/2 cup (a couple of handfuls) currants

8-inch cake pan, lightly greased with softened butter

Candied cherries, red and green, for garnish, optional





Place a heavy pot on the stove and preheat it over low heat. Add chips and milk and stir until chips are melted and milk combined; save the empty condensed milk can. Stir in vanilla and remove fudge from heat. Add nuts and currants and stir in immediately.

Cover empty condensed milk can with plastic food wrap and center it in the greased cake pan. Spoon fudge into pan around can, making sure to recenter can if it drifts.



The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or 2 the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with "holly" made from cut candied red and green cherries. A wreath left plain can be garnished with a pretty fabric bow when serving. Chill covered in the refrigerator and slice fudge very thin when ready to serve, a little goes a long way.

Answer 282

My favourite desert to make. Caramalise brown sugar in a pan and mixed in sliced banana (whatever fruit you like; nana's are nice and grany for this); a dash of lime juice and a good amount of brandy/cognac and flambe the thing. Put into small dishes and top with vanilla ice cream. You can even shove them in a pancake and make a crepe. It literally takes 4 minutes. Merry Christmas. PS: don't worry about your kids getting pissed: it's the alcohol that burns off not the flavour. Besides, a shot'll calm them down this time of year. Bye now.

Once the chocolate is melted, stir in crushed candy cane bits. Spread the chocolate/candy cane mix on wax paper and let cool in the freezer. Break off chunks and enjoy!
