Ritz Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cookies

These are always a hit because they are so good. Who can say no to peanut butter and chocolate?!

Ingredients:

1 (24 oz) Chocolate Almond Bark
2 sleeves of Ritz crackers
peanut butter
powdered sugar (optional)

Melt the almond bark in a double boiler over low heat, stirring occasionally.

In the mean time put peanut butter on a Ritz cracker then put another Ritz on top, sandwich style.
Dip the sandwiched peanut butter Ritz in the almond bark. Place on wax paper covered cookie sheet. Allow the chocolate covered crackers to set. I ususally let them set for abour 30 minutes then I put them in an air tight container.

Note: Use the powdered sugar to stir into the peanut butter if it is too thin or runny to stay on the crackers. Alot of the natural peanut butters are a very thin consistancy.

From Twigs to Trees!

OK, girlfriends, I'm ready to show you what I have been working on for weeks and weeks. I told you I was working on something for two special people - it is done! Let me tell you who, what, when, where, and why. For as long as I can remember I have given my girls a "Happy December" present. I just love the Christmas season so much that I am ready to begin the celebration. So on December 1 I would have a gift for my kids. They might come home from school and find a Christmas shirt on their bed or I would present them with Christmas socks or a Christmas trinket, maybe cookie cutters or sticker book. Just something. For fun! This year I made: Grapevine Christmas trees!!!! I had lots of help! My sister, Nancy, Mark, and Hank all helped me gather the vines. Poor Hank got poison twice from helping me find vines! Then I wrapped the vines around a tomato cage using the vines and thin wire. ...
