My grandmother used to make peanut brittle and the minute she just got the baking soda stirred in, she would quickly dump it onto a buttered sheet pan so that the air bubbles are still in the candy. This would cause the brittle to be very light and airy. Making a delicate brittle. The more that you stir the less air bubbles you'll have. Making the brittle harder

I love watching/ listening to you two! My husband proposed to me about 5 months after we met, married 1 year after we met. 32 1/2 years ago ❤

The reason your chocolate is seizing is because you're using water-based food coloring. Water seizes chocolate as you you well know. When working with chocolate, you must use an oil-based food coloring. Hope this helps!❤

My amish friends in her 70s or 80s makes this almost daily for her store, and she stirs constant once the nuts go in. So trust grandma's recipe

I used your fudge recipe and put Kit Kats on the bottom of the pan, poured the fudge over and topped with crumbled Kit Kats. Yum!! My hubby isn’t a fudge fan…but loved it!

Never seen haystack candy with coconut. Here, it's made with crunchy chow mien noodles and butterscotch chips. Guess I'll have to make both ways this year. Oh the horror!😂

So sorry about Aunt Donnie! Are you awake? Don’t take the thing! It WILL kill you! ❤️ Wyoming!!! My sister has been in Laramie for 50 years!!! I worked at Yellowstone in summer during college!! Love this, kindred spirit❤️

If you heat your nuts some before adding to the pot. The syrup won't instantly cease because the nuts are cold, colder than the syrup. Also I use 2 Tablespoons of baking soda. Fulffs up the cand amazing, keeps those bubbles, and cand is much lighter, not so hard.

ohmygod you have _the best_ husband. Star Trek references, supportive comments, finds _all the things_ SUPPORTIVE COMMENTS!! for the actual win though.

lol! I LAUGHED BEFOR YOU DID WHEN YOU OPENED THE FRIDGE! Looks LIKE MINE!🤣🤣🤣 Mushroom soup? HAHA!

I worked at a Fanny Farmers Candy store when I was 16. That was my most loved job ever!! Such great memories working in a candy store 🍭🍬🍫

I like to make 'instant' peanut brittle. Melt a package of Turbinado sugar in the raw in a frying pan, then add peanuts, or raw walnuts, stir and dump out on wax paper cool and break to pieces. You can do this in the microwave too, but it cools so quickly that its difficult to break it into smaller pieces. I gave out one of my Grandmothers recipes in xmas cards this year. It was fun, all the memories, she also taught me how to make real fudge. She always had a batch waiting for me when i visited. Oh, she taught me how to make flakey pie crust too. 😍

This week, I'll be making Christmas candies to give away as gifts. I love the variety of candy recipes in your cookbooks. Thank you!

So fun to be a part of holiday candy making with you!

I'm impressed that you have a grandma who is still alive! All of mine passed long ago. 😢 congratulations ❤

Love it! It is just like the once you used to do 👏🏻 I love to watch you cook. Hope you are having a great weekend.

Back in the 70’s, I made a lot of peanut brittle using raw peanuts and a candy thermometer. It seemed to take forever but was delicious. Fast forward to 2015, my kids admitted they didn’t like peanut brittle. So I started making it in the microwave with roasted peanuts. A lot less work and tastes just as good.

I toast my coconut in the oven when I make my hay stacks. Lol. I love the texture. I'm weird. Lol

Everything looks so good wish I could make it all. So will pick one. Someone needs to call Hallmark you two lovebirds❤

I had a neighbor who made jalapeño peanut brittle. Absolutely delicious! Looking for that recipe.

Thank you so very much again.

😂 I’m sorry about your Aunt love the fact of what you said or didn’t say lol I’m so glad to see people awake. Rosie Meek

I should have watched this again first. I was stirring the brittle mixture. Hope it comes out well. Thanks for the recipes. My husband loves peanut brittle and I've been afraid to cook it. Edited to add. It came out great! Yeah!! Thank you. It's a gift for my husband as we decided to do all homemade this year.

Thanks Tawra I will diet after Christmas 😂 All the best, Merry Christmas to your family.

I laughed so hard with your comment about the shot for that thing going around. It fooled many people. Stay vigilant your recipes are fantastic btw

I have my granny's peanut brittle recipe as well. she only used a cup of ice water to test temp. BUT it worked for her. I use thermometer lol. My grandfather used to call it peanut BRUTAL

Love the way you think and glad your awake

May I share a tip I learned from another KZfaq cook? If you tightly wad up your parchment paper then uncrumple it and mostly smooth it flat again not only will it stay put on a flat cookie sheet but it can be shaped to fit different shaped pans too. Especially when you snip the corners as you did. Works for me.

Brings back so many memories of making candies with my mom!!

Hello From Toronto, Canada Sweet Lovin' To Your Dining On A Dime Treats, Recipes And Easy Preparation Techniques! And For Sharing Them! You Are Granny Blessed With Truly Great Recipes And Beautiful Memories.

If you use powdered food coloring the chips won’t seize. Thanks for the recipes

Ive never heard of cherry mash! I bet crushed pecan would taste good too in that recipe mmm

I loved all your recipes. Especially the Coconut Haystacks and the Brittle, I make mine in the microwave. BTW your hair looked beautiful so did you, I was just thinking you would make a Beautiful Mrs. Clause. Thank You for your recipes. Merry Christmas ⛄🎁

I like how you coded THAT THING because of THAT THING!! I

IAM glad you said stir to prevent burning. I made the fudge and👍😁.

Just found your channel, and so much fun watching you.😊

the cherry chocolate fudge will be great for Valentine's Day too!

The haystacks my gran always made had buttscotch chips and chow-mein noodles… never saw them with chocolate chips and coconut before!

Oh my goodness you were cracking me up, what did we learn, nothing. You're so funny. Thank you so much for sharing. Happy Holidays to you all🎄

Awwww I have that same little cardinal coffee cup. It’s just the right size when you want a little bit but not a big mug.

You could have used that seized red chocolate in the cherry fudge. It will melt again if you add hot milk/water/shortening.

Sorry for your loss,😪 due to the thing that was to fix the thing going around. Well put.

Those look great, but the thing that made me smile was your apron!!

Hi Tawra everything your making looks good ❤

I love your apron; can I ask where you got it? Ran across your channel today and I love it. I can't cook that good, so I love how easy these are to make. Do you have any recipes for diabetics, or do I just take my chances?

I feel like I am in a diabetic coma watching all this deliciousness!! (LOL cuz I am a diabetic) haha thanks for sharing the yummiest am off to the store to start my goodies for th e up coming parties I am headed to. Thanks so much!! The 2 of you are adorable! Merry Christmas Christmas

I enjoyed this. Thank you Tawra.

I also put pecans and marshmollows. super good.

YUM!! THANK YOU!! ❤ ALWAYS, Paula C

Absolutely LOVE your huge window(s) in your kitchen! What a gorgeous view 🌲🧑‍🎄🎄

Thank you for sharing these delicious recipes

❤ N I'm so glad I got a Fudge recipe n only two ingredients wow how easy ...tyfs yours ...My family has been asking for my fudge on Christmas Eve n I didn't make any but ,now I will for New yrs ... N Happy New Yrs to u & ur sweet hubby ....💕

Loving this!

Very easy to cook and testy candy. Ty!

Love the Star Trek reference to Earl Gray, hot. 😅☺️

Make me some of the peanut brittle & send it to me, I cannot ever find any anywhere. I'll pay you!!!

If you cooked the first ingredients until when you stir it, lift the spoon dripping in the pot, it will stream a string about 18 inches long then add the raw peanuts and cook until golden brown. Add baking soda butter and vanilla. Stir and spread on a buttered cookie sheet.

Yum

I have made peanut brittle since junior high. I however had an actual candy thermometer. And it has all the actual soft ball, hard ball, soft crack, and hard crack measurements . It was the only peanut brittle that my grandpa could eat and he was so happy. It was his favorite. I had to make at least two batches every time. It just melted in your mouth. It became my favorite too.

FYI: I buy the big bag of semi sweet chocolate chips from Costco. 2 cups of chips equals 12 ounces. Merry Christmas and thank you for the recipes.

I’d rather have cooked peanuts in peanut brittle, it just tastes better. To me at least. I loved this video ❤ thank you.

My favorite part of peanut brittle is the brittle 😹

I will eat all the haystacks!

❤ Im so glad I came across my screen tonite , Cause I lost u 😮 I was a subbie for yrs n u were not on my list in my Utube channels 😮 So thank goodness , I just subscribed tonite ❤

Just in time thankyou for sharing ❤

Your candy looks delicious! Now i want some. Thanks ❤ Love the way you and your husband flirt. That's what keeps a marriage strong .God bless you both 🙏 ❤

I make my Peanut Brittle in the microwave lol.

When you get water in chocolate, it will seize. Food coloring has some water. If you add it too quickly it will seize. If you need to add food coloring, add it a drop or two at a time and thoroughly stir it in before adding more. My friend, Tom made Grinch Balls (Mint Oreo Balls dipped in bright green white chocolate) on his channel, Come Sit at My Table. He demonstrated how to add the coloring to his white chocolate. BTW, he and his wife are Dave Ramsey fans and went through the program years ago. Now they are living their best life!

Y'all making me hungry!

Absolutely 💯 Yummmies

I have the same pitcher! I love your videos...great recipes

Looks delicious & easy.

I’ve stayed in Sheridan Wyoming with my ex’s family. It is an absolutely beautiful place. Your video just popped into my feed. Yummy looking treats.

Thank you so very much!!! 12/25/23 CHRISTMAS 🎄 DAY 2023

I love this channel!!!

You forgot the Vanilla in the toffee ! My boys won't eat toffee without pecans and vanilla. I also put hazelnuts in my food processor and add hazelnut powder on my toffee as well.

It all looks delicious! Off topic, your hair looks great!

You should make every one of Grandma's recipes!! I love old fashioned recipes -- please share!! My grandma never cooked and my Mamaw died when I was really little. I love vintage cooking, though, and would love to watch you make all of those great recipes!! 😊❤

Tawra, love this super easy recipe channel. Going to share on FB.

Don't you totally love the lazer thermometer? I bought mine to get accurate temp readings for my backyard in summer when the news says it's 95° but it's really 115°. But I find I use it constantly in the kitchen.

Thank you that's easy so I will do that Christmas

Loved this!!

Looks great

Thank you for sharing! You have candy recipes for candy I’m not familiar with, how fun! I was watching you fighting the chocolate seizing up on you. This is frustratingly familiar. I’m thinking that between the liquid red food coloring and the cherry extract, water may have been introduced into your chocolate. Regardless, of course this would have to happen when you’re filming. Murphy needs to make an appearance, right! Excellent recipes, thank you bunches❣️I so love family recipes!

I like; I do!

Hi from New Zealand we call them chocolate buttons here. Nice cook bòok we cherish recipe books too. My mum had lovely hand writing when she wrote recipes.

Making your peanut brittle right now😋

Where did you get the adorable mixing bowl?

Love from Ireland Great. ❤

You must use an oil based food colouring with chocolate, water-based ones will screw up your chocolate. If you toast the coconut before you put it in the chocolate, it will taste so much nicer

I like your hairdo.pnut brittle is a candy my mom made me every Christmas. Yummy. God bless you all from grandma Katie in Oregon

They all look so good!😁

You just popped up and I'm so glad you did. I so enjoyed all these recipes and your cook books. They seem so easy to make. I do need to lose weight though but it's all about moderation.

Great video! 🎄

I have been making this 2 ingredient fudge for over 20 years and back then it was 18 oz of chips to one can of condensed milk. I have noticed it has changed 2 times over all those years😂...I'm guessing because the size of chocolate chip bags have shrank😂 it all works the same though.

I love your hair!!! ❤️

Okay... The little bowl with the bird on it... LOVE IT. Where'd you get it? Thanks for all the recipes! 😊❤ God bless you!

ASMR is pretty fab

Great recipes!!
