FUNKY FRITO FRUCKIES
Anytime I can find a mixture of salt and chocolate, I jump on it. These cookies/candies are rich but wonderful. If you are not a big fan of chocolate, or want these a little less sweet, leave the chocolate off.

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY AND FRITOS' SANDWICH
One of my first authentic childhood recipe creations. It rocks because it satisfies that need for sweet and salty! I had to beg Mom to buy me a bag of Fritos because Mom didn't allow that type of food in the cupboard. Inspired by a thread regarding the 1970's.

- Grab a handful of Fritos' corn chips and scatter them on one slice of bread. (You can lighlty crush them if you want, but I never did.).
- Place the other slice of bread on top. Cut sandwich in half or quarters if desired.
- Serve sandwich with the remaining bag of Fritos because speaking for myself, I never knew when I'd enjoy another bag of Fritos again.

Tips:
- Choose the right Fritos: For the best results, use original Fritos corn chips. Other flavors or brands may not have the same taste or texture.
- Use creamy peanut butter: Creamy peanut butter is easier to mix and spread than chunky peanut butter. If you only have chunky peanut butter, you can pulse it in a food processor until it becomes creamy.
- Add-ins: Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins to the Fritos and peanut butter mixture. Some popular options include chocolate chips, marshmallows, pretzels, and bacon.
- Chill before serving: Once you have mixed the Fritos and peanut butter, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the mixture to firm up and make it easier to cut into bars or balls.
