~~~~~~~SWEET HOLIDAY CONFECTIONS~~~~~~~ A Chocolate Candy Recipe From Me to You

~HOLIDAY BALLS~

In two days my La Chaumière de Briarwood is going to be filled with great food and ALMOST every person I love most in the world (except for my ailing father).  I'm more excited than I can say about gathering together with friends and family celebrating once again the goodness of God and his gracious bounty.  I am amazed at the blessings God the Father has bestowed upon my little family and I am truly in awe of His love for us.
~SIMPLE TO MAKE~

Now...I'm a planner.  I am!  I love coming up with new twists for our traditional Thanksgiving meal and the entire process from shopping for the food to actually preparing the dinner...
~CHOCOLATE SPRINKLES~

This year I remembered a sweet treat my Momma-In-Love use to make for my Mr. AGPMan when he was growing up.  I have no idea where the recipe originated from I can only tell you she fashioned these candy confections for years and years and years.  I've changed up the original recipe just a tad to make it more to my family's liking, but it still has much of the same flavor as those my hubby gobbled down as a young boy.

 ~COOKIES AND CREAM TOPPER~
~FROM OUR COLLEGE RECIPE BOOK~

I typed out the original recipe you see above and noted the changes made to the one I use today.  I hope you'll try it out!  ENJOY!

Blessings as you celebrate and give thanks with a grateful heart.

Love to you...

  7. Dearest Rebecca,

    Those look yummy and I saved your recipe too.
    Tonight I'm too tired... got back from Atlanta in heavy rain and that wore me out. Plus I'm having a cold...
    Love to you,
