My mom sent me home the other day with a bag of some delicious treats she had made. My husband discovered them - loved it - then my son, he kept sneaking them off the plate and then I proceeded to "snack" on them throughout the morning and by lunch time.......well you know the what happened. I guess the saying it true that if you eat sweets before lunch/dinner it WILL ruin the meal. Oh but these treats were such a yummy meal! (ha ha ha)
And because something so good (and easy) to make shouldn't be kept to myself, I'm sharing it today! These are great for all the upcoming Holiday parties you will be hosting and attending. Enjoy!
White Chocolate Orange Crunch
1 pound white chocolate (2 boxes of Bakers' Chocolate)
1 tsp orange extract
1 cup of Rice Krispies
1/2 cup golden raisins (optional)
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Create a double boiler by putting a glass bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure the bowl doesn't touch the water. Add the white choc. (I broke the squares in half) and the extract and let it set for a few minutes. Stir until it's smooth. (Don't overheat the white choc., or it will seize.) Remove the bowl from the pan and reserve 2 tbls. in a small bowl and tint with orange food coloring. Add the rice cereal to the large bowl and stir until combined. Pour out onto the baking sheet and spread to an even thickness. With a small spoon or fork, drizzle stripes of orange tinted choc. over the surface of the candy. Refrigerate the choc. for about an hour and then break into pieces
Note: If the orange choc. gets to firm to drizzle, stir in about 1/2 tsp. vegetable oil until smooth and loosened.
Try this with different flavored extracts, like lemon or coconut!
Thanks MOM for sharing the Recipe!
