  • Homemade chocolates!

    I'm calling these "Heart Attack Bonbons" because although you can't really see it in the photos, there's butterfat oozing out.

    Homemade (from scratch) caramel inside belgian milk chocolate.

    Nice! I made Truffles myself. Not so adventurous as to try to make caramel. I do want to make molded chocolates sometime though, that sounds good with a creme filling. And peanut butter cups, and everything else that I haven't done yet but know how to do...
    My only regret is that I don't have a better word for "F@#k You".

      Those look really good, Dave! I'd ask for the recipe, but I don't think I have the patience to mess with a candy thermometer. Cookies are my specialty, I'll stick with those!

        Damn you. Now I have a hankering for a chocolate that I can't have.

          My wife gets together with her sister & SIL & now the daughters,since they're old enough,before Xmas & they make a TON of chocolate stuff,choco-covered cherries (they have to sit for a week or so),peanutbutter cups,choco-covered nuts like cashews,peanuts & macadamias (gotta eat those before the nuts go bad) & various other things.She comes home reeking of chocolate with splatters all over her shirt
