In the spirit of friendship, I’d like to share a long-time
recipe that my mother makes at Christmas. It’s simple to prepare. I might warn
you about one thing. These need a label. Warning: this candy tastes so good
that it’s hard to eat just one!
Without further ado, I present to you my mother’s recipe for
White Bark Candy.
2 cups Rice Krispies
2 cups Captain Crunch cereal
2 cups Dry Roasted peanuts
2 cups Miniature Marshmallows
½ lbs. Almond Bark
Mix all ingredients except almond bark in a metal mixing
bowl. Melt the almond bark in a double boiler and pour over the other
ingredients. Mix well.
Drop by spoonful on wax paper. Cool completely. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThis recipe sounds yummy! I'm going to ponder how to make it gluten free. :) I have a recipe for peppermint bark.
ReplyDelete1 bag dark chocolate chips
1 bag white chocolate chips
3-4 (I think) candy canes crushed.
**Peppermint oil, optional
Heat the chocolate chips over low until just melted. Spread into a cookie sheet. Freeze till hard (in Colorado, I just stick it outside for a few minutes. :))
Heat white chocolate over low heat, just till melted. If you heat too long, it will solidify again. Spread over dark chocolate. Sprinkle candy cane pieces over the top and freeze.
If you want to use peppermint oil to make the flavor stronger, stir in a few drops while heating the white chocolate.
Break into smaller/bite sized pieces. I usually put into a ziploc and freeze.
My family loves this recipe. :)
Sounds yummy, Jeanne! I'll have to try this!
DeleteWhat a great idea, and looks grandchild friendly and super enjoyable. Thanks. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI think it would be a fun thing to make with grandkids!
DeleteBoth of those recipes sound great!
ReplyDeleteWe use one that's really popular in our household only we use white chocolate, dark chocolate with peanut butter melted and then cooled. Yum, Yum.
We give away most of it, less for me to eat :0)
I know what you mean, Alena! I need to give most of this recipe away too.
DeleteThere goes my diet!
ReplyDeleteDiet after Christmas!!
DeleteTeri, this recipe sounds so yummy. I'll have to get the ingredients and try it. Here's a super fast recipe that children can do with the help of a grown up...
ReplyDeleteLine a cookie sheet with waffle pretzels. add a Hershey's Hug or Kiss, then place in a preheated (350 degrees) oven long enough for Hug or Kiss to soften, but not melt completely. Remove. Before chocolate hardens, press an M&M in the center. Great salty/sweet treat.
