Candy!

Last weekend I received this cookbook as a gift from a good friend.


I'm extremely excited to improve my candy making skills. At the moment I have about the same expertise as Lucy in the candy factory. Last Halloween was my greatest attempt. Here's a look at what I ended up making.


Basically, it's just a lot of things dipped in chocolate but oh those peanut butter cups! They are incredible. I'll be posting the recipe very soon. 

I'm also a big fan of chocolate molds. Rubbery ice cube trays are my favorite. I used one from the dollar store to make the skulls.

For Valentine's day this year, I received this awesome ice cube tray


I can't wait to start making little chocolate matryoshka dolls!

  2. The peanut butter cups are my favorite and they are pretty easy! I'll have to make some soon so I can take photos and post the recipe.
