Thanks.

I wonder if a pic of the recipe will work?





I see that one thing has been left out of the recipe. Before spreading the pecans on the cookie sheet, make sure to spray some Pam or butter it. Also, I do it on wax paper. If you don't butter the wax paper or spray some Pam, you will play hell getting the hardened candy off the wax paper. I've never tried it with parchment paper, but maybe it wouldn't stick to that.

Have no ide what you call them, but oh so good.

Ritz crackers with peanut butter sandwiched between, and covered in white chocolate. Savory and sweet....yum. That and tiger brittle.

My wife's grandmother, God rest her soul, made these amazing fruit cake cookies. Wife still makes them and I still love them and get a case of the feels every time I eat one.

Candy bacon, candy canes, and these chocolate/peppermint covered pretzels from costco (snack factory brand, I believe).

Hello Dollies is my favorite.

Old recipe, pretty simple. Name Brand ingredients really do make a difference too.

Graham cracker crumbs, butter, chopped pecans, chocolate chips, coconut flakes and sweetened condensed milk poured over, then baked to bring it all together.

I make lemon crinkle cookies every year for Christmas with the Meyer lemons from my tree. They're always a hit with our families.

And Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to all of you!
