Ummmm....HELLO?

How genius are these little gems!?!

I found this recipe over at PW's Tasty Recipes blog...

I was so excited to try them...

and they totally delivered!

Homemade Butterfingers:

16 oz candy corn

16 oz peanut butter

Melting chocolate (your favorite kind...but not choc. chips)

Melt candy corn in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second intervals, making sure to stir at each interval.  When they are totally melted, add peanut butter.  Note:  I had to mix mine up with my hand mixer because it was so thick and sticky.  Put mixture into a wax paper lined 8X8 pan.  Place in freezer until set.  Cut into bite sized bars and dip into melted chocolate using a fork to scrape off excess.  

Personally...the dipping part was tricky but not as bad as I was expecting.  They might not be pretty but they are sure tasty!  The texture is almost spot on like real butterfingers and I was so shocked by this...I mean really...candy corns and peanut butter?!?...Who Knew!?

It will make quite a few bars...which is good cuz it's Taylor's favorite candy bar!

Rice Krispy Candy...

 These little beauties are so delish...

I whipped up a batch of them yesterday and forgot all about them sitting in the refrigerator...

thankfully Taylor found them and wanted to try them...

who knows how long they would have been hidden in there...

Rice Krispy Candy:

2 cups Karo corn syrup

2 cups peanut butter

1 cup butterscotch chips

1 cup chocolate chips

7 cups Rice Krispies

Combine the corn syrup, peanut butter, butterscotch chips and chocolate chips in a large saucepan.  Melt over medium heat until smooth.  Add rice krispies and mix well.  Pour into a 9X13 pan that has either been sprayed with pam or lined with parchment paper sprayed with pam.  Refrigerate until set up (don't forget about them) and cut into small squares!
