Halloween Candy Bark

Look into my crystal ball . . . .

 . . . what do you see?

Halloween Candy Bark!


Yummy!

Making bark is the easiest thing in the world to do!  You can mix just about anything into the melted bark and POOF!  You've got a new creation!

Halloween Candy Bark

1 package white or chocolate almond bark
3 cups pretzels, broken
2 cups candy corn
15 Halloween Oreo's, broken into pieces (I didn't use them because I couldn't find them!)
sprinkles

On a silpat or foil-lined cookie sheet, place about 2 cups of the broken pretzels and the broken Oreo's, if you're using them. 

Melt the almond bark in the microwave, being careful not to scorch the bark.  Almond bark typically holds its shape, even when it's melted, so stir often to prevent burning.

Pour the melted almond bark over the pretzels and smear it around, covering as much of the pretzels/oreos as possible.  Quickly sprinkle the top of the almond bark with the remaining pretzels and candy corn.  Press down lightly with the back of a spatula.  Sprinkle about 1-2 TBSP of sprinkles on top of the pile of stuff.

Allow to set up until firm.  This takes 30 minutes or more.  If you're in a huge hurry, pop it into the refrigerator. 

Break into pieces and put in a candy dish or bag up some for friends!

Quickly drop on the remaining pretzels, the candy

For the "Ultimate" Halloween Candy Bark

*Do not put the Oreo's on the bottom with the pretzels.  Simple put the crushed pretzels on the pan.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a sauce pan, melt 1/2 cup of butter with 1 cup of brown sugar.  Stir until mixture is melted and well combined, don't cook it too long, or you'll end up with caramel, but you'll want the mixture to bubble "slightly" around the edges.

Pour this mixture over the pretzels.

Place in oven and bake for 10 minutes.  Remove from oven and sprinkle some candy corn on the hot mix.  Allow to cool completely!

Follow with the melted almond bark directions from above.

***I saw this option on a blog that I read.  I'd tell you which one -- but I can't remember!  I've done a very small adaption from her recipe -- but not enough to call it my own!

Whichever one you make, you'll love it -- my crystal ball told me so!

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su...

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out! But because these are simple ingredients, you'll be able to throw it together in a moments notice! Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup 3-4 chicken breasts; cooked and shredded (or whole chicken;  cooked & shredded) olive oil 1 c onion, chopped 1 c bell pepper, chopped 1 c celery, chopped 1 c carrots, chopped 1/2 T minced garlic 2 t cumin 2 t coriander 1 t paprika 1 t red chili powder 1 T oregano 1/2 t cayenne (adjust to your taste) 1 28-oz can diced to...

Chicken and Artichoke Casserole

Picture from Cooking with Paula Deen ( . . .and aren't those cute dishes!) We first had this delicious casserole on Mother's Day while feasting at "Dining on Persimmon Hill," which is a restaurant at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, OK.  Side note --- if you have the chance to visit the Museum, please take advantage of the opportunity.  It is a wonderful experience!  And don't forget to eat at the museum restaurant.  It's delish! So back to the casserole.  After eating it we knew we had to find out the recipe!  The owner of the restaurant graciously shared her secret!  It's a Paula Deen; which means it's full of fat AND yummy flavor! This casserole is a hit with my cherubs and the Mr.  Also, whenever I make it for friends, they always want the recipe . . . maybe they're just being nice, I'm not sure!  When you look at the recipe, you might think it's a pain, but really, it is so easy!  ...
