I LOVE making
I made it at Christmas,
but I
"switched it up."
The recipe says something
about pouring it
inn a pan
and cooling it
at room temp . . .
or fridge if it doesn't set up.
At Christmas,
I found Wilton candy making forms
for 30% off.
I bought two,
a gingerbread boy
and a Christmas tree.
They worked FANTASTIC!
All of the families we
take Christmas "goodies"
to got one of these
for each child.
Since they worked so well,
we bought a cookie pan
than makes cookies
in different Christmas shapes.
The cookie recipe we used
ended up making
MONSTROUSLY thick
cookies . . .
couldn't be given away,
much to puffy looking,
so I gave sacrificed my body
to them.
I know . .
poor me.
But . . .
they worked FANTASTIC (again)
for making chocolate.
So everyone on our
"goodie" list
got a small ceramic dish,
like a mini bread pan,
with 5 or 6 of the large
"chocolate cookies"
and 4 or 5
mini-Christmas tree chocolates.
They looked good
and tasted better.
So, today,
I am hungry for that same chocolate.
The husband and I had talked about
using our mini-cupcake pan,
filling it 1/4 - 12 with the chocolate
then adding some
smooth peanut butter
and topping it off
with more chocolate . . .

Reeses' cups.
Our neighbor LOVES
peanut butter and chocolate.
His wife came over
with a homemade cheesecake,
topped with strawberries,
that her mom made to pay me
for 3 sock monkeys I made for her.
(Alicia knew I wouldn't take money
and her mom would want to pay . .
well, her desserts are
OUTRAGEOUSLY good
and are worth more than money.)
I told her what we had made
and that I would have to give them some.
I need the approval
of Mr. Peanut Butter and Chocolate.
I'll let you know
how they turned out.
Okay, Paula...I just have to tell you that you are annoying me with the centered text and short lines! Ha-ha. I think I need some of that chocolate to calm down now. Somebody did not get enough sleep. I need a nap already. :)
