Dessert: Candy

You do not need to be a whiz in the kitchen to whip up a batch of homemade candy! Some of these recipes are so easy that even my kids can make them.

Puffcorn crack is one of the most popular recipes on my site, and it also happens to be one of the most simple. Give it a try, but be careful - it's addicting!

From peanut butter fudge to microwave caramels, to easy chocolate candies, you are sure to find something to satisfy your sweet tooth!

CHRISTMAS CANDY RECIPES

Nothing says "I love you" like a plate of made from scratch candy, especially during the holiday season. One thing that's nice about candy is that it keeps well, so you can even ship it to loved ones who live far away.

When I make up my Christmas plates for neighbors, I like to include my  turtle candy recipe, snowman bark, gingersnaps, and my personal favorite - homemade toffee.

EXTRA EASY CANDY RECIPES

Sometimes you need an extra quick treat. Most of my recipes for candy don't require the use of a candy thermometer, and some of them are ready in just a few minutes!

I got the recipe for my Rice Crispy Peanut Butter Balls in high school, and no matter where I serve them, people go crazy for them. Take them to your next potluck, and be prepared for recipe requests!

I'm definitely a chocolate lover, so you will find several recipes for easy chocolate truffles, as well as candies dipped in chocolate. Perfect for all you  chocoholics!
