does any one read my posts
I'm reading it!
I just don't have any candy recipes. :|
Last year there were a whole bunch of recipes in my newspaper for homemade cream caramels. I cut them out and meant to make themas gifts but never got around to it. I was going to dip them in chocolate and sprinkle sea salt on them. It's all the rage here in Seattle to have sea salt caramels. So yummy... and SOOOO expensive!!
Have you tried to make any of the cady recipes that are online?

These are our favorite holiday candies.
Peanut Butter Cups
You will need some small muffin papers they sell them in the craft, candy making, section of Walmart.
You will need some:
dipping chocolate
a jar of natural smooth peanut butter
1/2 stick of butter
and some powdered sugar
Buy the peanut butter about a week ahead of time and let it sit in your pantry so as much of the oil that will come to the top does.
Melt the dipping chocolate in the top of a double boiler and paint the bottom and the sides of the tiny muffin papers with chocolate and put them in the freezer. I use a jelly-roll pan to put them on. Just let the chocolate that is left harden in the pan and save it for later.
Pour the oil off the peanut butter discarding the oil and empty the jar into a mixer bowl and beat the peanut butter together with the butter until smooth. Mix in enough powdered sugar to get it as sweet as you like it but not too sweet and form the mixture into walnut size balls.
Press a peanut butter ball into each of the chocolate cups, then melt the rest of the chocolate and drop a small spoon of chocolate on top of each ball to seal. Let them harden at room temperature and pack them in bags. You can store them in the frig or the freezer if you are going to need to keep them for a long time. I have made these months in advance and when they thawed out they were as fresh tasting as the day I made them.
