Canning Recipe Candied Jalapenos Aka Cowboy Candy​

#8 Candied Jalapeños (aka: Cowboy Candy)

My first step in working with jalapeños is getting my safety gear ready. That means my trusty chemical goggles, a pair of vinyl gloves & my chicken apron for inspiration.

Next I make sure I have all the ingredients the recipe calls for. (Good thing I did this because I was out of sugar and didn’t know it.)

Here I am chopping the jalapeños as per the directions in the recipe.

The next step is boiling the apple cider vinegar and spices to make a ‘syrup’. The jalapeños will briefly be added to the syrup before it all goes into the canning jars.

Here is my end result. I won’t be able to try these sweet & spicy little gems for at least a couple weeks, but I’ll be sure to let you know how they taste. 😊

Second Place - @Chickstarrs
Monster Cookies #1​

Recipe #66 Monster Cookies #1

First, I had to gather fresh eggs so generously donated by our lovely girls.

Then mix the batter. I made a double batch since cookies don't last very long in my house!

Allow the cookies to cool after baking. (sampling a couple while still warm)

Mmmm. Yummy treat for tea time. 😋

Edit: the recipe calls for M&M's. All I had were Christmas coloured ones and mini ones so mixed them and used both. The recipe did not specify what kind of M&M's so it should be legal.

Third Place - @HopKat
Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies​

#158 Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

I followed the recipe as written. I didn't use the optional coconut. Now I need to get them out of the house before I eat them all!
