I like to make peanut butter & cornflake candy. Super simple and quick...takes maybe 15 minutes.
1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups cornflakes
Bring sugar and corn syrup to a low boil over medium. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Fold in cornflakes. Pour onto foil or wax paper then cut into squares.

Start with a good chocolate chip cookie (my wife makes the best, no pics), and do them half dipped in semi-seeet chocolate. Put in the fridge before putting out for guests, otherwise even messier.

Fudge, divinity, peanut brittle, haystacks all made by my grandmother. She's 90 now, this thread reminds I've got to get her recipes while I still can

Fudge. Sugar, chocolate chips, condensed milk, vanilla. I like the walnuts in for texture.

Date balls, lady fingers and 3 types of fudge - chocolate, cranberry and buttermilk were a given at my house growing up. And three types of fruit cake... one nasty one and two good ones.
