Chocolate Covered Almonds
A special Greek treat. You'll need:
12 ounces dark or semi-sweet chocolate
Although more traditional recipes might call for a slab of chocolate to be broken into pieces, you can use your favorite brand of high quality chocolate chips or baking chunks to simplify the process. Also, although a double boiler is the preferred way to melt chocolate evenly, you can also use your microwave and a microwave safe bowl. Melt chocolate. Mix in almonds and coat thickly with chocolate. Spread almonds on top of wax paper to cool. Enjoy! (Thanks to Tauby for suggesting this recipe!)
Edible Bird's Nests
You'll need:
1/4 cup
butter or margarine Melt butter in microwave in large glass mixing bowl. Remove carefully and stir in marshmallows saucepan over medium heat. Continue heating in microwave until marshmallows have melted completely (be careful not to overcook). Carefully stir in cereal or "noodle" crunchies and coat thoroughly. When mixture is cool enough to touch, remove small portions to wax paper and shape each into a "nest". Let cool and add jelly beans into the nest. For a fun variation, add chocolate chips in with the margarine, then add marshmallows.
