Christmas Crack

Next week my daughter has a cookie exchange in school.  I saw this recipe and thought it would be the perfect thing for her to share with her classmates.  Enjoy!!!

Adapted from the Food Network






Saltine Toffee Candy


1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips
40 saltine crackers


Heat over to 400 degrees
Line a 12×17 cookie sheet with foil and spray well with cooking spray
Layer the saltines on top of the foil
Heat butter and sugar on stove top until boiling, stirring constantly.
Reduce heat to a low boil and cook, uncovered between 3 and 5 minutes, until the mixture is thickened and the sugar is dissolved.  MAKE SURE NOT TO BURN THE MIXTURE!!!!!!
Pour butter and sugar mixture over the crackers and spread evenly
Bake 5-6 minutes in the oven
Remove pan from the oven and let cool for 3 minutes, then sprinkle the chocolate chips over the crackers and sugar.
As the chocolate melts spread it evenly over the crackers and sugar using a knife
Let cool completely (refrigerate to cool quicker)
Break into bite size pieces and serve.
Store covered in the refrigerator.

A Teen’s Room

This year my high school daughter thought for Christmas she would like to redecorate her room.  We got her a new desk, a bigger one, to accommodate the bigger workload, but really she just needs a few accessories and/or additions to bring her room to the next level.  I searched the internet and local stores and here is what I found.  Any young lady would be proud to have these chic accessories in her chambers.  In fact, I have my eye on a few things for my room as well!!!!!  Happy Decorating!!!!
