    Thank you for these yummy recipes! I make a Chocolate Toffee Saltine which is similar to the Christmas Crack, except I keep the nuts out of it, instead substituting mini marshmallows and Christmas M&Ms, and for a "sharper" option, using unsalted saltines, coarsely chopped dark chocolate squares and topped with Wilton's Christmas Tree sprinkles.

    Use the caramel you poured on the crackers, pour on the corn puffs. Mix, spread on lined cookie sheet put in the oven at 300. For about one hour stirring every 15 mins. Taste like cracker jacks.

    This peanut brittle recipe used to be a part of my grandma’s repertoire! So many yummy memories! Our families have always done the savory version of Chex mix made with bacon drippings, butter, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco and seasoned salt. Ours has 2 pounds of pecans instead of the peanuts, as that suits our tastes better, but I’m sure any and all nuts are welcome... especially in my family! 😉😂🥰 I have never attempted the sweet version or any of the other recipes but they all look delicious and inspire some Christmas cooking! Your friends and family are very fortunate to be gifted with your thoughtful and delicious treats! Merry Christmas! 🎄❤️🎄

      @@Hiker_who_Sews It’s from my grandma’s church recipe compilation from many, many years back... and called “Texas Trash” but known to the rest of the world as Chex Mix! Basically half bacon drippings and half butter... to total whatever amount your recipe calls for butter. But as bacon drippings on hand varies at our house, it has still been very delicious when we didn’t have enough bacon drippings for half and half of total fat. As you know, this recipe is very forgiving and allows for all sorts of variations. Enjoy!
