Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups Rice Krispies
1 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, at room temperature
12 ounces white chocolate
Colored sugar for sprinkling (optional).

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine Rice Krispies, peanut butter, confectioners' sugar and butter or margarine. Mix until very well combined. Firmly compress into balls 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Place on a baking sheet, cover and refrigerate until well chilled, about four hours or overnight.

Ina Garten loves to make chocolate bark for the holidays as a quick and colorful candy. Temper the chocolate in a microwave as a foolproof and easy solution.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h25m

Yield 16 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup whole shelled salted pistachios
16 ounces good white chocolate, finely chopped
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup medium-diced dried apricots

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using a pencil, draw an 8-by-10-inch rectangle on a piece of parchment paper. Turn the parchment paper over so the pencil mark doesn't get onto the chocolate and place it on a sheet pan.
  • Place the pistachios in one layer on another sheet pan and bake for 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Place three quarters of the white chocolate in a heat-proof glass bowl and put it in the microwave on high for 30 seconds. (Time it with your watch for accuracy.) Stir the chocolate with a rubber spatula, return it to the microwave for another 30 seconds, then stir again. Continue to heat and stir in 30-second intervals until the chocolate is just melted. Immediately stir in the remaining chocolate and allow it to sit at room temperature, stirring often, until it's completely smooth. (If you need to heat it a little more, place it in the microwave for another 15 seconds.)
  • Pour the melted chocolate onto the parchment paper and spread it lightly to fill the drawn rectangle. Sprinkle the top evenly with the cooled pistachios, the cranberries, and apricots. Press the nuts and fruit lightly so they will set in the chocolate. Set aside for at least 2 hours until firm or refrigerate for 20 minutes. Cut or break the bark in 16 pieces and serve at room temperature.

OREO BALLS



Oreo Balls image

My sister's co-worker brought these to a party and they were quite a hit. I don't know where the recipe came from originally. "Bark" is an artificial chocolate or vanilla candy coating/confectioner's coating used to make a treat called almond bark and can be found at most grocery stores near the chocolate chips. You can use chocolate chips and white chocolate chips if you don't have almond bark, but I have found that almond bark melts better and is easier to work with.

  • Store the balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks: They can also be frozen for up to 2 months.
