reviving last yrs holiday treats!!!

Hey ladies!!!

Just to remind us of some of the GREAT recipes from last year- I had a ton of fun with this one from Smurfette (Danna) - they are SO easy and look so cute - cut and pasted below:

"has anyone seen that great recipie in the Family Fun magazine for December? I've tried this and they are stupendous and super easy to make!

pre-heat oven to 170
take pretzels, the one's shaped like waffles.
Put a Hershey's kiss in the middle of it.
Put it in the oven for 7-10 minutes.
Take it out and squish an M&M in the middle of it.
(The chocolate should be soft enough to squash down into a little pillow)

I tried this using the holiday M&M Mint candies and it worked great.

another version is to try this with Hershey's Hugs. They look pretty. But watch out. The white chocolate melts at a different rate than the milk chocolate.

My family just loves these and the kids love to help make them. "


And who can forget (though I guess maybe you'll kick me for reminding you of these because they're just too addictive!) Dani's Oreo balls!!! Cut and paste below:

"Oreo chocolate balls

1 pkg oreos
1 8 oz pkg cream cheese
melting chocolate

Make oreos into crumbs using a food processor, then blend in cream
cheese.
Roll into balls and place
in fridge for 30 - 60 minutes until hard.

Melt chocolate and dip balls (using toothpick like device) into
chocolate...refrigerate to harden.

Editing:
Someone suggested using bark chocolate instead of bakers chocolate b/c it clings to the cookie better."


Enjoy... AGAIN!!

:p :7
 
RE: reviving last yr's holiday treats!!!

Thanks for bringing this up. I was wondering if Dani (or someone else) could tell us how far in advance you can make the Oreo Balls. Those were a huge hit last year but I made them the night before.
 
The first thing that crossed my mind when I read the title to this thread was taking a fruit cake out of the freezer!
Just Do It! :)
 
Well, I had to go out this afternoon and before I know it, I was turning into the grocery and coming out with waffle pretzels, kisses, and M&M's!!:eek: :p

My cookie exchange bags are really going to be popular Christmas day!
