We all love chocolate- don't we..?

I used to work somewhere that at Christmas a client would send gourmet chocolate covered potato chips. My first year there, the staff was raving about them and telling me about them. And I said no, that just doesn't sound good, are you kidding me?? They could not wait for them. They showed up some days later, that client's usual gift I gather and oh my yum yum. I couldn't believe I liked them but that crisp and salty with the sweet, man were they good.

I don't know where you buy them if just locally but I've found them online at gourmet candy/chocolate kinds of places, sometimes the places with specialty nuts and chocolates. Years ago I knew the brand of these, but I don't any longer.

You can make your own. Chocolate covered potato chips are easy.
Melt some chocolate of your choice. And dip a chip in it.
I nuke my chocolate in the microwave in a custard cup.
Ridged chips work best but the others work too.
Small batches work best for me.

Theres something about the combo of sweet and salty. I need to check out that Reese's.
Candy corn and peanuts are good too.
 
Keep your eye open for these at Walmart. Not long back I posted in another thread I've bought these candy wafers for $4.16 at Walmart. Lately, some flavors have been marked down to only $1.50 / bag. Attached is a picture one of them that was reduced, and they're very good. I am unable to get a clearer picture.
[They aren't in with the regular candy or baking candy at my store. They are nearby seasonal candies, which right now, would be Easter.]

I just looked at three local stores, including Walmart. Not available in-store at any of them. 😟 I can get them shipped for a very high price (for a 12-pack) but I'm not that adventurous. :giggle:

Amazon has quite a few- small ones and bars, various brands- some aren't expensive, but the thing with Amazon is you can only get free shipping/delivery if you order at least $35. of items..

I'll check there. And since I'm constantly shopping there, $35 is never a problem. My first purchase, according to their records, was in October of 1997. :)
 
Don't knock it til you try it. Pigs n Taters doesn't sound bad at all to me.

I'm a sucker for chocolate and nuts. Not pig's nuts; deez nuts: peanuts, almonds, pecans, and walnuts.

I love pralines and I'm currently struggling with a Reese's Peanut Butter Cups addiction.

Every Christmas Eve, Michelle makes a killer hot-cocoa with a fluffy little cloud of carmel-flavored light, airy cream floating on top. Only the bottom of it melts, but just slightly, so it sits there intact on a tiny platter of it's own white sweat until you carve some of it out with your spoon.
The woman knows the way to a man's heart.
