I thought almond extract was MY secret weapon!? lol🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣SERIOUSLY TH BEST!

[staceypelletier]

When you make the snowmen instead of using a toothpick and having to worry about the kids, you can just use the same pretzel you are using. Either push one threw or if you need use a second one to extend it to make it longer. Just a thought. I love all of your ideas.

Buckeyes have always been a favorite of mine!

MERRY CHRISTMAS! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS! I hope you and your family are filled with many blessings and sweet memories. Thank you for sharing your time and recipes.

The buckeyes would be great for diabetics or people on low carb by using natural peanut butter, a sugar free sweetened and dipping in sugar free chocolate that you thin with a bit of coconut oil. Thanks for the recipe!! I always look for recipes I can convert since I am a type 1 diabetic.

Thank you for speaking the quantities and for doing that clearly and slowly. Appreciate that for those of us who cook while we watch

When I was a young girl, our local mall sold fresh pretzels and we'd get also a side of melted chocolate. It was my treat everytime we went..

[darladelarm]

I top the peanut butter ritz crackers with Reese’s pieces. Kids love them. Or holiday sprinkles would add a nice touch.

[dolliemaesone]

I add 1Tbsp peanut butter to chocolate peanuts

Crack is soooo good with milk chocolate on top, or done with pretzels or Breton minis instead of soda crackers ❤

I love almond extract. I add almond extract when I make Rice Krispy Treats. The kids love them!!

[terrihubbard]

For BUCKEYES, we add Rice Krispies, either crushed or not crushed, and it makes them almost like a Nestle's Crunch bar!

If you add a little bit of Coconut Oil, your Candies will be Shiny. Just food for thought. In case you didn't know.
