Peanut Butter Potato Candy by Stan Jenkins

This is a delicious candy you don't have to cook or bake. People are often surprised to know the white is made of potatoes and not cream cheese.

Sweetened Macapuno Strings by ShaleeDP

I like this native dessert and I'm missing it much! This is an old recipe by my grandma. No one makes it better than her for me :)

Creole Pralines by Amos Miller

Better than a cookie (sorry bakers, but this is a Creole group) and with the true taste of New Orleans, Creole Pralines are one of the signature treats in the Big Easy! It is time to play 'soft ball', and we're not talking the sport - we're talking Creole candy. When the recipe calls for your concoction on the stove to reach the…

Baked Caramel Corn by Jane Evans Bonacci

Original recipe from Jiffy Pop Popcorn. The trick to this recipe is to stir the caramel until the sugar is dissolved and then don’t touch it again until you turn it out of the pan. Stirring brings any undissolved sugar crystals down into the mixture and the whole thing will crystallize again.

Easy Candied Pecans by Salad Foodie

A snack for the gods! Sprinkle atop your favorite greens, blue cheese topped or chicken salad. For holiday entertaining leave the pecans in halves rather than chopping, and serve in a festive bowl.

Halaya (Purple Yam) by ShaleeDP

After making this recipe, it was hard to not eat this by giant spoonfuls. It.is.so.good.you.want.to.eat.it.all I definitely have plans for this.…

Reese's Peanut Butter Bars by Carolina Create

These are amazingly delicious!! This recipe makes a huge 11 X 18 X 1" cookie sheet full, so if you need less you'll have to adjust the recipe. If you don't have a pan that size, you can get a non-stick one at Walmart for around $5. I left the recipe large because we all love them that much and I will probably make this for dinners or…
