Christmas Recipes

I also have crack cooling at the moment. My waistline thanks you all. I did use fat free crackers though so that should count for something, right? Right?

The tray came out of the oven bubbly and caramelly (yep, I'm making up words). Still, it wasn't quite hot enough to melt the chips, which I might add were a combination of chocolate and butterscotch. I'm crazy that way. Also, I should mention that I added a dash of vanilla to the butter/sugar concoction. It just seemed like the thing to do.

Anyway... after struggling with the spreading of said chips, I ended up throwing the whole thing back in the oven, chips and all, for an additional couple of minutes. At this point, the chips spread like frosting.

I'll give an update when they have cooled. They should go nicely with the baked ziti I am preparing. Matthew is damn lucky that one of us can cook.

LOL- I did this too- I sprinkled on the chips and melted them in the oven- spread much better that way!

Can you post a pic (I will tonight) so I can compare?

Well, it's not the greatest pic, due to my lousy camera but here goes...
