chocolates

easy chocolate candies

melt together the following on low heat
1/2 stick butter
dark chocolate- I've used bars or chips to equal about 1/2 to 1 c

stir in any combo of the following:
chopped nuts
chopped dried fruit
heath bar bits

blob spoonfulls of mixture onto foil or parchment paper to cool- can be cooled in fridge

One of our favs: giralldelli chips, dark choc chips, heath bar, pecans

Another good turnout: dark choc, pecans, butterscotch chips

peanut butter cookies

1 Cup Peanut Butter

1 Cup Stevia

1 teaspoon Baking Powder

1 Egg

1. Preheat oven to 350

2. Cream peanut butter and stevia together. Beat in the baking powder. Add the egg. Mix until all is well combined.

3. Roll the dough into balls. Place on baking sheet. Press down on the ball with a fork in each direction  to make it look nice and then put in oven.

4. Bake for 10 minutes. They should still be a little soft but they will harden in about 10 more minutes when they cool. Enjoy

Makes approximately a dozen cookies
