Welcome

I am constantly amazed at how animated and talkative people get when you mention food. The mere aroma of certain foods can evoke memories that transport us back to a special place and time. Food can bridge the gap between all ages, races and ethnicities.
Let's face it, the only thing that should ever come between people is a table and some serving bowls.

Baby Ruth Squared

Baby Ruth Candy Bars are a real old time favorite. This recipe takes that classic taste we all know and love and transforms it into and easy to make treat. I highly suggest making a double batch cause these won’t last long.

Baby Ruth Squares

1 cup corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups salted peanuts
6 cups Rice Krispies
1 heaping cup peanut butter (Creamy)

TOPPING:

1 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 cup chocolate chips
2 Tablespoons of butter

Cook corn syrup and sugar until it boils. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter, peanuts and cereal. Press into 9 x 13 inch pan. For topping bring sugar and milk to a full boil, remove from heat and add chocolate chips and butter, mix well. Spread on top of cereal mixture, let cool and cut into squares.

Rice Krispies for Christmas

1/4 cup butter
4 cups marshmallows
6 cups Rice Krispies



Food Coloring (however many drops it takes to reach your desired color)

Just double this recipe and make one batch red and one batch green. Feel free to add in any type of decorative sprinkle or candy.

Melt butter and marshmallows together; remove from heat (this is when you would stir in your food coloring). Add Rice Krispies (also add candies or sprinkles now, if using) and stir until Rice Krispies are well coated.

Press into a greased 9 x 13 pan. Cool and cut into squares.
