    Oh I cried when I saw your beautiful mom make the seven layer cookie bars. My mom made them every year for Christmas. Brought back so so many good memories. Thank you for that. Everything looked so good. 👍❤🎄⛄❄🤶🎅🙏

      My mom used to make them too. It's my brother's favorite, & I love them myself, but I haven't made any for him since she passed away almost 9 years ago. I try to make things that mom made every year for Thanksgiving & Christmas.

    My friend does the Ritz crackers with rolos, but then dips them in semi sweet chocolate and sprinkles sea salt on top....because she's extra that way. Seriously one of my favorites during the holiday!

    The Ritz Rolos look good. If you wanted to make them look ‘Christmasy’, you could add red or green food coloring to white chocolate morsels, melted, and dip half of the cookie in the mixture! Merry Christmas!

    • @secretshopper3195
      @secretshopper3195 Рік тому

      I use Nilla Wafers by placing the wafer top down and placing the Rollo in the center, place it in the warm oven for 3-5 minutes until the Rollo is just melted. Then I take a second wafer and sandwich the Rollo in between. Closest I've come to a homemade Twix bar. And of course you can cover the whole thing in chocolate. 😊

    Those Ritz Rolo cookies look amazing!!! I bet that different flavored Hershey Kisses would work well, also. My favorite also is the 7 layer bars...but we’re going to the store tomorrow, and I’m getting some Ritz, Rolo’s and maybe an interesting Hershey Kiss. P.S., I love the background music in your videos...always reminds me of Charlie Brown Christmas 🎄

    Thanks for the ideas of easy to make treats!! These will be great to make with grandkids. l just want to give you another idea for the "haystacks"--l make these at Easter and turn them into bird nests. (add peanut M&Ms for eggs in the nest). I also add peanut butter to the butterscotch and a small amount of choc. chips for color. They are so popular and yummy.
