Thursday, December 1, 2011 Chocolate- Dipped Candy Cane Grahams My family always loves to get in the Christmas spirit early to make the holiday last as long as possible, so I decided to start making Christmas recipes early.

Chocolate- Dipped Candy Cane Grahams

Today I made Chocolate- Dipped Candy Cane Grahams, and I got to eat my first candy cane in almost a year! Chocolatey peppermint goodness is always great… and on a graham cracker? Even better!!! Only 3 ingredients. If you love peppermint like me, add some peppermint extract to the melted chocolate. All you have to do to make this recipe is melt the chocolate, dip the graham cracker in the chocolate, and sprinkle peppermint on top. Then put the grahams on wax paper until the chocolate is set.

Edible Santa Suit Candy Cups and a Holiday GIVEAWAY!

In between working in the candy kitchen, we've taken time to go do some fun activities; we've decorated a gingerbread house, made caramels with friends, played bingo (I won!) , shopped a lot, and even found time to see Santa. This past Saturday we even volunteered at a parade and holiday festival then took a class and made a fleece blanket and pillow before coming home to package more chocolates. Yesterday we spent a very full day in the candy kitchen working 14 hours and will have an equally busy day today. Whew, I'm exhausted. Last week, during a few free hours, I had some fun experimenting in the kitchen and created some sweet treats for Christmas including these completely edible Santa Suit Candy Cups.
