December Goodies

I have to share this super-easy holiday cookie recipe.  Or maybe it's a candy recipe.  Whatever it is, it's one of the easiest things I've ever made.  Great to make for the office holiday party or to bring to a friendly get-together.

It's especially easy to make with kids.  I have made it with 4 kids under 7 before and they had a great time.  It's a quick enough recipe that they don't lose interest either!  It's called Reindeer Eyes but I have to admit they're more like "Bloodshot Reindeer Eyes" when all is said and done, but the sweet and salty combination is wonderful!


REINDEER EYES

Ingredients:
 
Holiday Pretzels (circle pretzels)
Candy Cane Flavored Hershey's Kisses
M&Ms - any color is fine, but you may want to stick with the holiday ones

Directions:

Place pretzels on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
Unwrap Hershey Kisses and place one inside each pretzel.
Bake for 3 minutes at 275 degrees.
Place one M&M in middle while still warm; let cool.

ENJOY!!!

Welcome to my new blog!  Some of you may have followed me at Leslie-Writes.blogspot.com.  If so, Welcome to Leslie's Musings!  As I developed more posts, I realized I was musing as much as I was writing.  So I decided to change the name of my blog.  I'm glad you're still here!

Newcomers - Welcome!  I hope you find my posts funny, inspirational, thought-provoking and insightful.  Please leave comments and feedback.  Maybe we can get some good discussions going!

I'm not sure I can tell you what to expect from this blog.  My goal is to keep it light and positive.  I won't dwell on negative things.  I will strive not to complain - at least not too much!  ;)  Hopefully I'll pass on some good information!

Happy Reading!!
