Milk Duds
"Stick" around! Comment below and let's have a conversation. See what I did there? Ha. Sticky is certainly the first adjective that comes to mind here. The "butteriness" of the duds are a decent touch. It's never been so much fun to have something stuck to my teeth quite like Milk Duds. Bravo.

Delicious Drinks to Enjoy in Winter
In the dark days of winter, we pile on layers of extra clothes and turn up the fire in an attempt to banish the cold. We are warm on the outside, but why should our insides do without? They deserve to be warmed up too!
The perfect thing to remedy this is a hot drink, made up of your favourite ingredients; they are delicious, warm and also satisfying. Here are a few may like to try that are both tasty and warming.
Hot chocolate with marshmallows or cream is a perennial favourite, that dark, delicious liquid looks good, smells good and boy does it taste good. The added sweetness that these two extra ingredients bring to the drink will satisfy anyone's sweet tooth.
If you love mint, adding peppermint or something similar, will really perk up your hot chocolate. That classic combination of chocolate and mint, seamlessly blend together to make this a true winter warming drink, try it with a candy cane in it to add a subtle mint tone.
Real hot chocolate doesn't come out of a jar or a packet, it is hot milk and pure chocolate mixed together to produce a creamy richness that no amount of powder can give. Heat the milk then pour it over the chocolate and stir, that's all there is to it; simple to make, and simply amazing.
Fruit drinks are very tasty when hot, and a hot, mulled Cider really is a delicious and very warming beverage.
This is just Cider that has been heated up and had some spices added. If that sweet tooth of yours needs satisfying, try some Caramel in it.
A very sweet drink that gives the impression of being a dessert is easily created by adding Nutella to your coffee. Coffee with Hazelnuts is a well known beverage, and the inclusion of chocolate into the mix is surprisingly good.

Chocolate Pizza and Pretzels: Edible Treats to Indulge Your Sweet Tooth
America loves pizza and pretzels. From mini bites to loaded versions, it seems like we can never get enough pizza or pretzels. Now it is time for both of them to be elevated to superstar status. You can substitute your favorite chocolate and include other toppings for the ones I have listed below. Kids can also get involved in making their custom treats. This is also a great way to keep older kids entertained at birthday parties.
Start with a pre-baked sugar cookie crust. I like to use a homemade sugar cookie instead of the refrigerated cookie dough found at most grocery stores. Freshness counts here. You can vary the sizes of your sugar cookie crust for the number of people you want to serve. Place the sugar cookie on a parchment covered cookie sheet. Spread a mixture of broken pieces of milk chocolate and white chocolate over your sugar cookie. Take some miniature sized marshmallows and spread them over the chocolate. Slice up some bananas and add those to the top of the marshmallows. Add your favorite chopped nuts.
In a preheated 400 degree oven, place your cookie sheet and heat for 3-5 minutes, depending on the cookie size, or until marshmallow melts and is golden brown. Remove from oven and cool completely. Melt some peanut butter candy coating in the microwave at 10 second intervals until smooth and then drizzle it over your chocolate pizza.
To make chocolate covered pretzels, you start with miniature pretzel rods. These are easier to work with than the larger variety. In a microwave-safe bowl, add a regular sized bag of caramel bits and two tablespoons of liquid whipping cream. Stir together and then place into the microwave for 10 second intervals until the caramel mixture is completely smooth. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Use parchment paper sprayed with butter spray to cover your counter. Dip a miniature pretzel rod into the caramel mixture at a angle. You want to cover two-thirds of the pretzel rod. Twist the pretzel rod to remove the excess caramel and then place it on the butter spray covered parchment paper. Repeat until all of the caramel mixture has been used. The caramel mixture will start to get hard and can be placed in the microwave again at 10 second intervals until softened and smooth again. Let caramel set until completely cool. If the caramel has spread out from the pretzel, you can gently wrap it around the pretzel to smooth it out, or you can use kitchen shears to remove the excess and smooth the caramel to get ready for dipping in the chocolate.
In another microwave safe bowl, melt mint chocolate wafers at 10 second intervals until smooth. Remove the miniature pretzel rods from the parchment paper one at a time and dip them into the melted chocolate mixture at an angle. Twist them to remove the excess chocolate and then place back on the parchment paper to cool. Make sure that you set them down on the flat side or they will roll over and mess up the chocolate coating. Allow to completely cool before eating. If you want to add nuts, coconut or any other topping, you can add it immediately after you dip the caramel covered pretzel rods into the chocolate coating.
Either of these chocolate treats would make a great gift for someone you love. Smile and enjoy.

A Chocolate Covered Caramel Recipe
Food preparation art can bring fun and excitement. If you try new recipes often, then you will surely love cooking. For instance, you need to try working with caramel and chocolates. The two ingredients and pretzel could help you make homemade sweets. Chocolate covered caramel entails a simple activity that the entire family can do together. Note that recipes are many too.
You should take enough time to browse many websites that post related content. If you want to surprise your friends and family this Christmas, try the following recipe. It is somewhat basic and everyone can enjoy making it. First, cover a cookie sheet with a wax paper and keep it separate. Then, try making a homemade caramel. You will require brown sugar, butter, frozen milk, salt and corn syrup.
Mix all these ingredients together and put them into a saucepan. Heat the mixture gradually up to two hundred and forty-five degrees Fahrenheit. You should have a measuring device such as a candy thermometer. Next, remove it from heat and dip pretzel rods in the caramel. Make sure it covers around three quarters of every stick. Find an item such as a spatula to help you spread caramel onto the rod.
Place each covered rod over the wax-coated paper for about half an hour. Meanwhile, boil a piece of moderately sweet chocolate piece that you can freely place in the microwave. As it boils, keep stirring to make the liquid smooth and creamy. To make real chocolate covered caramel, you should dip each pretzel rod in this liquid. Make sure that you do not coat both ends of the rod. Place each pretzel rod on the cookie sheet again.
Once you have finished, the next step will be freezing them. You can simply place them in the refrigerator until all chocolate spreads and dries uniformly. Next, proceed to serving your new homemade caramel candies. From the above example, everyone can now learn that making chocolates coated caramel candies at home is simple. This is just one of the recipes that one can find. There are many of them existing online. Your family and you should try this homemade caremel project this Christmas. As most of you have noticed so far, this art is very inexpensive too. You just need to have chocolates and you could freely choose the types you like.
Then buy caramel and pretzel cods. Other complex recipes might require you to have other ingredients too. Once you have made your new products at home, you can offer them to your friends as gifts. Many people would easily appreciate special foods during Christmas or any other holiday or party. If you want to spend more time with your kids in the kitchen, this is one of the easiest arts they should know. Working with chocolates is not only easy, but it is amusing too. Today is your chance to make chocolate covered caramel for the first time. Everyone in your family will love a combination of chocolates, pretzels and caramels.
