Since Thanksgiving is coming up I decided to taste test a few finger foods I had "pinned" on Pinterest. I chose Cinnamon Sugared Pecans and Caramel Crunch! They were both awesome!
The Cinnamon Sugared Pecans were just like the $10 ones you can buy at the mall or fair. The only difference is a) they were cheaper to make and b) they took no time at all to make!
The Caramel Crunch was a mix of popcorn, peanuts, pretzels and corn chex. Once you have combined all of those you bring Karo Syrup, butter and brown sugar to boil then let it simmer for 5 minutes. Once it has finished simmering add some vanilla and then pour over the dry mix. It took about an hour and 15 minutes to prep and bake. This too was awesome!
The awesome thing about these two snacks is that you can wrap them up cute or put them in a "Christmas-y" container, slap a bow on it and give it as a gift! It's cheap and most of all people love getting a gift they can eat!
Don't forget that today is the last day to vote for the Reagan Raiders! Please go here and vote one last time! If Pat and his school win they would get a check that would help improve the athletic department in so many ways! So please! Go vote!
Happy One Week until Thanksgiving!
Love,
