Millionaires

1/2c Sugar
1/2c Brown Sugar (packed)
1/2c Karo syrup
1/2c pet milk
1 stick of margarine
1/2t vanilla
2 c Chopped pecans

1 package of Choc. chips
2/3 block of parafin wax (found on the baking isle)

Mix sugars, karo, pet milk, and margarine in a saucepan, boil to soft ball stage. Add vanilla and pecans, stir very good. Pour into a buttered dish. (the size of the dish determines the thickness of the candies. Smaller dish makes thicker candy). Freeze for 2 hours (longer for thicker candy)

Melt Choc Chips and wax in SEPERATE containers. Mix together after melted. Remove caramel candy from freezer, and cut into bite sized squares. (you need a sharp knife, and muscles, or a man to do this!! LOL) Dip squares into Chocolate mixture, and set on waxed paper.
Cut only a few pieces at a time, and return rest to the freezer, because they thaw quickly.
When you are all done, you have a wonderfully chewy candy, kind of like *Turtles*.

ENJOY!!!!!!

sounds yummy

I am taking all kinds of recipes! How about homemade toffee??

Toffee
1 cup ground pecans
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup butter
12 oz semi sweet chocolate chips
Candy Thermometer

Butter only the bottom of 9x13 pan, sprinkle pecans evenly in pan.(i also used parchment paper)
In a medium saucepan over low heat melt the butter, stir in brown sugar
cooking over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until Candy Thermometer reaches 300 degrees
(hard crack stage)

Pour mixture over pecans in the pan. Spread out (mix will not go to the edges)
Sprinkle with chocolate chips; spread the chips as they melt. (optional, sprinkle more nuts on top of chips)

Refrigerate several hours or overnight. Break into bite sized pieces. Store
in tightly covered container in refrigerator.

Hey, while were talking about recipes ... I am seeking one. Maybe you dolls might have it. Cant hurt to ask.... I am looking for the peppermint bark (white chocolate). I am sure that I could do a search, but I bet yours will be better!

I'll dig out my cookie recipe tonight and try to post it.

Notes: Takes about 15 min to prep and a minimum of 2 hours of refrigeration. This should make about 3 1/2 - 4 dozen cookies

Chocolate Mint Truffle Cookie

6 squares Bakers Semi-sweet baking chocolate (chopped)
3/4 C butter
1 C Sugar
2 Eggs
1 3/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/3 C finely chopped candy cane

Microwave chocolate & butter on high for 2 minutes or until melted.
Once choc is completely melted stir in sugar.
Add eggs 1 @ a time mixing well.

Dough will be soft

Cover and refrigerate atleast 2 hours (over night is better)

Roll heaping teaspoons into 1" balls and space 2" apart on greased cookie sheet.

Bake 10-12 minutes until tops are set. Do not overbake!!!! Immediately sprinkle with chopped candy canes.



Cool 1 minute on sheet & move to wire racks to cool.
