Christmas Candy Making

Hello Dear Friends,

Welcome to my kitchen, 
or at least to my kitchen stove which is where I seem to play the most.

I decided I wanted to play with a little candy making, the easy way of course.
So with some Oreos, Candy Melts and some Christmas Molds
I had a very enjoyable couple of hours creating sweet treats.


I'm a coffee fanatic so I started with making chocolate and peppermint chocolate swirl
coffee dipping spoons.  Oh, my they are delicious.




The chocolate covered pecans didn't make it past the cooling stage.  I just couldn't
resist testing a couple or 20.  Then the kids decided taste testing was a good idea too.

Glued my Oreos to the pop sticks with Candy Melt and let it cool before the dipping stage.





Peppermint and Vanilla coffee spoons.





We left Santa some candy by the fireplace.



 Just in case Santa didn't like his candy we left him some cookies too.

 Some of my dipped Oreo pops.





 And here are some of my finished candies.
Wishing you a sweet holiday,

Angel

  8. My family always makes cookies, pies and breads for Christmas but now you want me to add candy to the list. We also leaves sweets for Santa every Christmas and they are always gone! Santa loves his goodies!
