Fall Into Flavor – Candy Crunch

Joining with Lid over at 2nd Cup of Coffee for this years installment of Fall into Flavor.

This was served at our last bible study and it was delish.

It was salty and sweet with a bit of a crunch!

3 cups Captain Crunch cereal

1 cup salted party peanuts

*1 tray Chocolate Candy Quick

1/2 to 1 cup peanut butter

parchment or wax paper

In large bowl, mix the cereal and peanuts.

Place 1 tray of chocolate Candy Quick in microwave. Process for 1 minute, watching carefully so that it does not burn.

When melted, stir in quickly 1/2 cup peanut butter. You may increase the amount of peanut butter to 1 cup if you prefer. (the batch that was served to us used a full cup of peanut butter)

Pour this mixture over the cereal and peanuts and stir very quickly.

Work quickly and drop by teaspoonful onto waxed or parchment paper.

Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes to harden.

Store in air tight container and place in refrigerator.

* Candy Quick is available at most grocery stores during the holidays. It is available at Wal-Mart year round. It comes in chocolate and vanilla. Both flavors will work in the recipe.

Blessings

This sounds wonderful! And I love Thena's idea about a new snack for movie night...perfect!

We always watch Christmas movies throughout the holiday season, and this does sound like a great accompaniment!

Announcing the “I won…You Win Giveaway!!!”

Several weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a book giveaway from Mocha with Linda . Click here to read her post about this book! As I finished the book up the other day I began to think about the two women the story centers around. The story begins with two pen pals in elementary school and they continue with there friendship for many, many years through letters and emails, but they have never actually met, not until things change for the main character. Her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds herself face to face with her long time pen pal. I began to think of the similarities between the two women in the book and all of you, my fellow bloggers. As members of this unique internet community we enter into each other lives as we read each others posts, as we comment, share encouraging words or just a well needed giggle now and then. But what I enjoyed as I read this book was the depiction of the friendship these two women shared. They had been intimately involved...

Sunday, March 13   Monday, March 14 This is coming up in the herb garden. My sweet furry family member decided it was his greatest joy to pull almost all my plant labels out of the ground and use them for chew toys.  I think this is marjoram but I am not sure. Tuesday, March 15 Click on the link Southern Eggs En Cocotte for the recipe. It was real good y’all!   No pictures on Wednesday, March 16 Thursday, March 17 Can you tell who was at my house all day?   I guess she figured since her toys were scattered all over the floor that she would join them. She laid down sprawl-eagle and did the back stroke for several minutes then switched to rolling from tummy to back all the way into the living room!   Friday, March 18 Today was cake decorating day. Click here to see the start to finish. Saturday, March 19 Today was Muffinhead’s birthday party at a local park! The sun was shinning and the weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all...
