This recipe is a family favorites. Sadly, I stopped making these a few years ago because of my son’s allergy to peanuts.
But this year Chris suggested making them using Peabutter (the alternative we use to peanut butter.) Yes! Why hadn’t I thought of that sooner? They turned out great! I can’t even taste the difference. I guess a bunch of sugar can mask anything 🙂

We have been busy today, making a few treats for our teacher’s gifts (another post with more details on that to come) as well as baking for our project.

Yup, we have been all about the dipping. Yesterday pretzels, today Candy Canes and Oreos!
Don’t they just look so yummy?

Today we made a very simple recipe. I first made these the year after we were married. I remember making them in our little condo and how quickly they disappeared… hmmm… hopefully they’ll last until Christmas this time!

Some of my favorite memories growing up are the ones of us camping together as a family. Both my parents were teachers, so we were able to escape to the mountains for at least a month every summer.
Many nights we would sit by the fire and makes the most delicious s’mores. They were my favorite part of the campfire.
