Rachel: This peppermint snowflake is my favorite.
Also Rachel: *doesn't show us a close-up of it*
😂❤️
Ha! Just got to it and thought the same. 🤣
Noticed the same thing; made me smile!
I was waiting for a close up everytime.
I thought the same thing… 😊
I think Chris is my spirit animal. He's so low energy, but I can tell he's actually having fun. It give me hope that I will find someone who enjoys being around my level of chill. Great video!
The saltine cracker candy has been a huge Christmas tradition for my family since before I was born, we call it soda cracker candy but I’ve also heard it called Christmas Crack. It’s even better with chocolate AND butterscotch chips, or chocolate and peanut butter chips. My favorite is the butterscotch & chocolate chips though, it just adds even more to an already really good, easy treat. But we use probably twice as much of the toffee stuff, coating every cracker, top and bottom.
It's also good with crushed candy canes or shredded coconut.
@@DougCoughler yes! I love candy cane on top and I definitely need to try coconut now!
I have never made it with butterscotch chips! That's sounds divine! B. Dylan Hollis just made it on his channel.
Somebody brought some to work that were graham crackers instead of saltines.
@@JamPle84 ooooh graham crackers would be insanely good!! Never would have thought to use them but now I have to haha
Rachel, I feel like an offset spatula would make your chocolate spreading dreams come true. The utter perfection it can provide for smoothing out things that are poured is incredible. I highly recommend.
I add coconut oil when I make dipping chocolate or candy melts. I makes them easier to dip and gives it a softer bite. I just made pretzels dipped in white chocolate and sprinkled them with crushed peppermint. I didn't add very much coconut oil to the first ones. The coating came out too thick and it was hard to bite through. The second batch was much easier to dip and the coating was much easier to bite through. Merry Christmas Rachel, Christopher and your adorable little ones. Enjoy your vacation!
Great tips thank you
I do this too! The coconut oil helps so much!
WooHoo 🥳 I’m making these now & needed the TIP! Thank You! Merry Christmas 🎄
If you find some people can find the coconut flavour and don't like it you can use cocoa butter chips. They are easy to find at any good baking ingredient store or bulk store (at least where I live). It's what I used when I worked in a bakery & had to dip with white chocolate (my nemesis to this day hahaha)
Every year since I was little my mom used to make chocolate covered matzo every year for Passover. The exact same as the saltine recipe, but using matzo instead. So yummy 😊
I love christmas crack! [The saltine toffee thing] we do ours with pretzels, sprinkles, and sea salt on top to cou her act the sugar.
Tip for the christmas cracker toffee: I prefer using club crackers rather than saltines, because they add a buttery flavor and i think they're a nicer texture, and also i would highly recommend adding some salt to the toffee mix. It makes them soooo good. I have them every year and can't stop eating them haha
I commented on the last video about the sprinkles and luster dust, and now im back with a couple tips. First, use a dry paintbrush to lightly dust the luster dust into the molds; better coverage, less waste, and less mess. As for the chocolate/candy melt situation, you can loosen them with oil so they dont get too hard and don't set too fast. In general, chocolate is always the best bet but candy melts are fine for thin coatings and decoration (however, some people can taste the difference and tend not to like the melts.) Last tip is to use a piping bag instead of a spoon to put the chocolate/melt into the molds, you can better control where it goes and how thick, do them one at a time (piping and adding cake before moving on), and give a light tap on the counter to avoid air bubbles messing up your finish.
All that said, I LOVE watching you and Chris encounter problems and figure out fixes. Thats one of those skills that shows the difference between basic home cooks and someone who could do it as a job if they wanted. Enjoy your vacation guys!!!
Thank you for the tips I am a baker but I'm way better at baking then decorating and this will help me in the future to make things look as good as they taste ❤
Enjoy your time off! I think taking time off should be a normal thing for content creators. I saw way too many of my favorites have burn out this year, and I think the way you've approached taking this time off is great 👏. See you in 2022! 🎉
I'm so happy you're taking two weeks off! I will be binging old videos in your absence.
I love CHRISTMAS crack. I usually make three different trays 1. dark chocolate with crushed Reese’s on top. 2. Milk chocolate with walnuts or pecans. & 3. White chocolate with candy cane. ❤️❤️ merry Christmas 🎄 see you next year.
Yay, stuff to watch while wrapping presents.
Also one of the best ways to eat cake with candy melts is cake pops. My personal favorite is vanilla cake and coated in salted caramel candy melt. It's nice and crunchy then the inside is soft plus the salty and sweet is so good.
Half pint of cream, tin of condensed milk and the juice of 3-4 lemons makes the most delicious dessert. Served in a pastry case or digestive biscuit base...stunning.
That outfit is fire, Rachel! You're looking really good!
I am nowhere near of having a sweet tooth, but I've been watching your videos about baking and various sweets purely out of adoration upon your cheerful, bubbly and chaotic-good personality:) thank you for you:3
sometimes, i add peanut butter to my "christmas crack" and it tastes amazing! just the regular Kraft stuff - it gets all smooth and melty!
Cracker Toffee is the best! I have been making it for years. It cracked me up when you brought out that gigantic bag of Chocolate chips! Have a great vacation. I recently found your channel and can't get enough of it!
I made a Passover of the cracker dish with Matzah. So good!
Your look is giving me super early 2000s vibes. The hair, the makeup, even the shirt. It suits you. Love the hacks
I feel like there is a new trend on UA-cam this season because you are the third youtuber that I follow that is taking 2 weeks off for Christmas!
Enjoy 💫💫
Christmas Crack is made slightly different, and when it's done right it tastes like Almond Roca. Your toffee looked kind of dark and grainy, and when it comes out of the oven you don't have to wait to put the chips on. You want it in while it's hot, and it's roughly 2 cups of chips (or a smaller 16 oz bag from the grocery store, not the bulk bag size). You want the chocolate and "toffee" to meld together while it's warm. If the toffee cools too much, the chocolate won't melt right. It's so good when made right, and is a year round favorite at our house. We make the butter/sugar mixture, we don't add toffee pieces, because they dont always melt down evenly.
Jessica Braun's 3 ingredient recipes are awesome. Since they showed on a past Vlogmas, we do them all the time...and they freeze well. Her Faux Thin Mints are Ritz crackers dipped into melted chocolate with peppermint extract (to taste). Let harden on wax paper...done. The Faux Tagalongs are creamy peanut butter spread on Ritz crackers, dipped into melted chocolate. Let sit on wax paper. That one won't work for you allergy-wise, but for peanut butter eaters, they're delicious. It doesn't get easier, kids can do them, it keeps kids busy for a bit, and and adults like to eat them. Good deal.
New here and I absolutely love your content, your enthusiasm and your energy! You make me laugh and God knows do we need it these days, thank you so much!
The blue snowflakes look like they could be used for like an frozen themed birthday they’re so cute
Possible tip: For the cakes, try chocolate ganache and then stick them in the freezer for a while (30 min maybe). Then take them out of the mold (frozen) and let them thaw a little before eating. Ganache usually holds its shape and is softer than just melted chocolate 😊
Oh my goodness I couldn't agree more with Christopher's fondant statement!!! 💯
Hard agree. Fondant is so good for the eyes but SO BAD for the mouth. UGH. So if I'm gonna eat some cake you better keep that fondant far away from it.
I’m so addicted to your channel it is so good and entertaining
🤗I love 3 Ingredient recipes! It’s amazing how many things can be made so simply but also be simply fantastic! Thank you for sharing! I love your presentation. I make cooking videos too and I love watching and learning for other talented creators like you! 🧑🍳🤗
Enjoy your 2 weeks break ❤ and we will enjoy rewatching ur old videos
Very nice ideas, especially the cake one.
I wonder if freezing the "3 Musketeers" mixture would be easier if you immediately poured it into silicone molds. Cutting it seemed like a step I wouldn't want. :)
Happy and healthy holidays and a big heartfelt thank you for making 2021 much lighter end easier! ❤❤❤
Lovely 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻
The Christmas crack kinda reminds me of these cookies my mom makes for Christmas time. It’s just ritz crackers dipped in mint chocolate candies with sprinkles. They are SO easy and taste like thin mints 😋
I keep looking at you thinking something looks wrong then it dawns on me.... your wearing a denim!🤣
I'm so use to seeing the sweatpants!
Love the look tho that top looks amazing!
Have a awesome holiday!
Lookin good Rachel! Keep up the 😎 stuff!
I been watching for as long as i can remember!
Hi! I'm from Argentina, love your videos, you have a wonderful positive energy that is contagious and it makes me happy! Best to all the family (you, Connor, Julia, Luke and Chris)...
Love the Calvin & Hobbes in the snow shirt Christopher is wearing!!!! Best shirt ever!!! And Festive!!!
I absolutely love watching the baking stuff ❤ me and my niece get together and watch and follow the recipes that you do on here. Sometimes they come out amazing.... Other times not so much 😂 one of my favorite youtubers! ❤❤
Have a blessed and safe and Merry Christmas and New Year!💕😽
Enjoy your break and your family!!
Love the saltine one… so yummy! I think the snowflakes would be pretty in white chocolate with blue sparkles!
I've had that saltine toffee recipe for years and years.....tastes just like a Skor bar....so good!
The cracker candy is great with Matzo! For Passover every year I make the Matzo crack and it is amazing!
I call the Saltines treat, Christmas Crack. I make it every year, but I use pretzels. It’s really good!
I was telling my husband I bet it would be super good with pretzels instead of crackers. Although where I am in Georgia there is a pretzel shortage lol idk why but there are none anywhere
@@krisb5695 boo! That sucks. I’ve heard there’s been shortages happening. I hope you find your pretzels and get to try it. It’s amazing! My boyfriend, who does not like sweets, loves it!
Merry Christmas, enjoy your time off with the family.
pro tip: if you want to gently sprinkle glitter on something, dip a paintbrush in it and tap the handle against a finger or something just above what you want sprinkled. this also works with liquids.
My grandmother made the saltines one for years but we call them poor man cookies. SOOOOO good!!!
I love Christopher's Calvin and Hobbs shirt
Happy holidays! See you in 2022... tons of love and best wishes to you and your family.
My aunt use to make the cracker candy every year in loads of flavors! My favorite flavor is white chocolate with candy cane bits!
Happy holidays to you and your family. Hope you all manage to spend quality time together and recharge your batteries.
You deserve the time off with your family, we will miss you of course! Merry Christmas ❤️❤️❤️
You are a successful Content Creator across multiple platforms. 💕 I'm glad it's your job. Happy 2022 to you!
The cakes with the chocolate/candy melts topping is brilliant! Have to try it.
For the thick chocolate shells - try dilute it with a little bit of vegetable oil (I think one tea spoon oil per 100 gram chocolate).
And the toffee crackers one - already tried it with matzah 🤣 need to try this version as well
Have a wonderful vacation, enjoy the time off wih family and friends. I promise I will still be here in a January! 😉
I learned to make the cracker candy differently, perhaps easier. Spread butter on the saltines and then top with sugar. That goes in the oven. When it comes out top with plenty of chocolate chips. It makes its own toffee like magic.
You and Chris honestly cheer me up so much. Love you guys
Merry Christmas Rachel, Chris & family! 🎄🎅🏻💜🥰 thank you for all you do to entertain us! See you in 2022
Enjoy your break!! ⛄🎄🦌🎅🥳
Have an awesome time on your vacca guys !!!!
Nigella Lawson years ago made an instant chocolate mousse by melting marshmallows then added chocolate chips to melt in and mix them up. It only needs to cool in the fridge and it looked so fluffy and smooth.
You could fill those little cakes with frosting, custard, or jam etc. and they'd be awesome.
Enjoy your vacation, you two are really sweet people…your vid’s are hilarious! 🎄 🍾 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣2️⃣!
Yum, now I am so hungry! I can’t wait to try these😊. Have a great holiday and a Happy New Year🪅🎉🎊!
Look forward to your videos every Saturday :)
Hope you have a wonderful holidays.
Hi all the way from South Africa. Love love love your videos. Have a wonderful happy Christmas. Enjoy your well deserved vacation 🤗
The cakes! Definitely the cakes! I love baking easy recipes. I made truffles with a boxed lemon edible cookie dough and a bag of dark chocolate. People went nuts!
Enjoy your break/vacation! Merry Christmas!!!
I would love a video on each brand eg tarte, Revlon and so on and their best product if any in each makeup category, foundation, blush, highlight, maskscara, primer and so on
Hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas 🎄
I love funny cat videos but everytime my cats do something funny and I try to record them they stop haha. Love your videos, I always feel like I'm sitting and watching a friend. Merry Christmas to you, Chris and the family and all the best for 2022! Enjoy your time off xxx
Thank you so much for all the amazing content, wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas and a happy New year from Ireland, 🥰
Oooo you could do the snowflakes with frosting if you freeze it for a bit to make the frosting come out of the mould and then let it thaw before eating.
my sister makes lace cookies every single year for Christmas and i really think you should try making them!
Happy Christmas to you and the kiddos! Enjoy your holidays!!
The first recipe has been made in my family for years. We call it Christmas crack and sprinkle crushed candy canes over the chocolate. Delicious!
We used to make Christmas Crack with butterscotch chips or chopped nuts on top. Fun video!
Love the new look Rach! You guys are so much fun to watch. Enjoy your short break. Merry Christmas!
Going to miss my Rachh and Chris fix but you guys have a FANTASTIC holiday ❤
Your makeup is so pretty in this video! Would love to know what you’re wearing or see a tutorial on your makeup channel! :)
You should paintbrush the chocolate on the inside of the cake molds. It would be a chocolate shell cake!
The making of the toffee is giving me Alvin Zhou vibes. Very relaxing 😌
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and Fabulous Vacay!!!
If you want to do that technique with frosting you could probably fill the mold with buttercream and the cupcake and then freeze. if it's taken from the mold while frozen the buttercream will hold shape as it warms up
I love watching Rachel's video; they make me happy! ☺
Merry Christmas and Happy New year to you and your beautiful family 🥰
The Christmas crack is so good! Especially with flakey salt on it!
Love watching your videos every week. They always come out around dinnertime so we watch while we eat 😁😁😂😂
2 weeks off! I'll miss you and Chris.. :)
Enjoy your holiday!!
Hope you have a great Christmas 🎄☃️
Love your videos so much !❤️I literally watch them on REPEAT ❤️❤️
Use the luster dust on the snowflakes on the cakes. 😊
Happy vacation and Merry Christmas
The first recipe is known as brickle. Boyfriend's 70 year old grandmother has been making it since she was a kid. It's really good
Merry Christmas from beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, Rachel & Christopher ! 🎄I love your videos … you are both SO delightful ❤️
Christmas hacks!!!!! Yeahhhhhh!!!!! Greatings from the other side of the world from Buenos Aires Argentina 😄
Merry Christmas!! I hope you have a nice break and enjoy your holiday. I'll miss you both but you deserve the break.
Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year to you and your family 🙏❤
Merry Christmas! I hope you and your family have a great holiday and enjoy some time off!
I think if you poured your faux-3-muskateers nougaty stuff into a mold that shapes them into bars, dipping after would maybe go smoother. These look fun, all of them, even so! Thank you! 💜🎅🏼⛄ Happy Holidays!
