In October I was able to pick up several bags of left over Halloween chocolate candy disks. Some were dropped in hot coffee, some were dipped in peanut butter and the rest were made into homemade Chunky candy bars first created by the Nestle company. Here’s what I did. I placed one solid chocolate disk on wax paper then piled on peanuts and raisins. I then placed another chocolate disk on top of it, wrapped it tootsie roll style then microwaved it for 15 seconds. I removed it from the nuker to squish everything together well. After that I placed it back in for a final 15 seconds. When it was soft enough I placed it in the freezer to solidify.
In addition to the Chunky bar, I made mock Hersey’s Almond Joy bars as well as your standard chocolate and peanuts candy bar. All were made by using the process above with the ingredients below.
Items needed:
Wax paper
Plain chocolate disks
Nuts – peanuts, almonds, pecans
Raisins, dried cranberries, etc
Coconut
Mix, match, experiment and have some fun. After you microwave them place them in the fridge over night and dream about the treat you’ll have the next day. These easy candies make pretty good gifts too.
