Diva Chocolate (Need I say More)

I'm pretty sure that it is unecessary to explain the correlation between Divas and chocolate. Well, let me put it into a simple equation for you. Chocolate+Divas=Happy Divas. Also let me share an alternate equation with you. Diva's+no chocolate= you don't want me to go there. It's not pretty. So you can thank me for giving the divas of the world chocolate. I thought it would be the perfect favor, and, must I say, it was!

My Christmas Pretzel Bites! Oh so delightful.
1.Prehead oven to 350*
2. Place "Holiday Pretzels" from Rold Gold on a cookie sheet. Place on hershey kiss (any variety) on top of each pretzel.
3. Place in oven until just beginning to melt.
4. Take out of the oven and immediately put an mnm (or to mix things up place a Reeses pieces on there, that'll really take them for a spin!)
5. Let set, and gobble down approximately 23 at one time, I'm pretty sure that's one serving haha!

Chocolate covered oreos. Need I say more? It's super easy to. Just melt some chocolate melting wafers, dip, scrape, and repeat. Cover with sprinkles and enjoy!! Also, in the back you can see some oreo clusters. This comes from me getting so frustrated with those stinking broken oreos in the package that i felt it necessary to break them all into little pieces and throw them into chocolate because I was disgraced with them. No longer will I be disgraced with these tiny broken morsels of delight. For I greated these "oreo clusters" Equally as delicious!
A picture of my chocolate covered oreos drenched in the white melty stuff. Equally as satisfying!

Ok, please brace yourself. This might be the best chocolate covered story ever.

Choco-Peanut Butter Ritz

Items Needed:

Ritz Crackers

Creamy Peanut Butter

Melting Chocolate

1. Take two ritz crackers and spread with peanut butter.

2. Cover in chocolate, decorate with sprinkles

Holy Peanut butter crap, thats all I have to say.

Yummy, Yummy Yummy. Oh, but don't worry; I made an extra box for me-hehe! Also, as you can see, I chocolate covered some marshmallows and some kraft caramels (both found in the grocery story.) I also purchased some snowflake chocolate molds and package molds. I melted some green and red melting wafers, and voolah! Now it's your turn, go ahead. What are you waiting for?

All ready to go! Oh how my ladies loved them. I heard rumors that some were attempting to hide these delicate morsels from their children. How sneaky! I love it!

Treats for Turkey Day

So, one of my favorite things to do in the world is to spend insane amounts of time working on tedious little edible treats. This in turn, turns me crazy haha. But....Thanksgiving seemed like the perfect time to engage myself in this love of details that I possess. I went searching all over the internet and finally stumbled upon a few recipies. After I twiddled and tweaked them to suit me, this is what I created. I'm quite proud of these little guys, if I do say so myself.

Detailed Little Project Number 1:

Cookie Turkeys

Ingredients:

One package of Keebler Fudge Stiped Cookies

One package of Marshmallow Fudge Cookies (Great Value Walmart Brand)

One can of vanilla icing (a little tinted yellow and a little tinted red

One can of chocolate icing
2o mini chocolate chips

20 mini candy white ball sprinkles
Assorted candy corn (I used peppermint and gingerbread) (You can also use Indian corn or regular candy corn)

Directions (Brace yourself before you try to conquer this. You WILL get frustrated! BEWARE!

1. Take one Keebler Fudge Striped cookie. With a dab of the chocolate icing, attack one half of a Marshmallow Fudge cookie to the base.

2. With a piping bag and a large circle tip (or cut the end of a ziploc bag) pipe a turkey "neck" in front of the fudge cookie.

3. Put a dot of white icing on two mini chocolate chips and add the mini white sprinkle ball. Push the chips into the head of the turkey.

4. With the yellow icing, give the turkey a nose and two legs/feet. With the red icing, give the turkey a gobble. (Use a piping bag or ziploc bag)

5. Cut a fuge striped cookie in a little more than a half. With icing, attach five pieces of candy corn to the cookie in the shape of a feather. Add icing to the candy corn and attach to the back of the turkey. VOOOLAH! Makes ten turkeys. Prepare for compliments.
