Beef jerky is driving me nuts. It smells so good. I had to wait till now to make it because I can't keep DH out of it till we are fishing if I don't do it almost last minute.lol

I was thinking about something sweet today too. And thought I would tell you about something that is fast and really good.

It comes from Mary Beth Roe a host on QVC and 1989 Mrs. Minnesota. She calls these Snicker Snacks

Graham cracker squares

3/4 C. Butter (I use margarine)

3/4 C. Packed brown sugar

1 C. or more chocolate chips( the best is Nestles)

1 C. salted peanuts ( I never use them though)

Place graham cracers side by side on a ungreased jelly roll pan. In sausepan, combine the butter and brown sugar and cook over medium heat , stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a boil. Boil for 5 min. stirring constantly. Immediately pour over graham crackers and spread evenly. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Let stand till melted about a minute then spread. Sprinkle with peanuts and lightly press into chocolate. Cool and break into pieces....

So good.

Those Snicker Snacks sound good. There are usually two cups of chips in a bag so that means one for the recipe and one for me. Kathey

Oh, we definitely need a drooling icon!

:-)~..

That recipe will go on the Recipe site soon!!

I am ever so thankful that I have no graham crackers in the house right now!

That jerky sounds super good too. Do you have a dehydrator or a smoker or do you make it in the oven?

Gee, Janet, just what I needed, a recipe for totally luscious Snicker Snacks! LOL This recipe sounds as though it has lots of good stuff and nothing bad in it for sure...Are you taking it on the fishing trip or just telling us about it? It's a keeper, sounds good for next Christmas, well, if not a whole lot sooner. Would you happen to have a WW point count on it? hahahahaha. Seren
