Today, I’m sharing my 5 favorite candy recipes. These are all easy, they don’t require a candy thermometer and they all use the microwave. That’s the way I roll, people. I hope you like them.
Ingredients:
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup confectioner’s sugar
1 tbsp. softened butter
1 tsp. vanilla
chocolate candy coating
Mix the first 4 ingredients. Roll into small (walnut sized) balls. Place on waxed paper, and then refrigerate for at least 1 hour. After the peanut butter balls are well chilled, melt the candy coating, according to package instructions. Then dip each ball into the coating and place back on waxed paper. They are hardened and ready in about 2 minutes. This makes about 24 peanut butter balls.
Ingredients:
1 cup butterscotch chips
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 cups chow mein noodles
Melt the butterscotch chips and peanut butter in microwave for 1 minute, then stir. Continue to microwave and stir in 15 second intervals, until there are no lumps from the chips. Stir in chow mein noodles until well coated. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto waxed paper.
