What Are Your Favorite Christmas Treats?

cheeseface · Dec 12, 2005

There's never a chocolate thread far behind in the lounge, but then who gets tired of chocolate when there's so many different ways to eat it, especially around Christmas.

Past favorites our family would buy only during the Christmas season are:

Turtles (These are my favorite for sure!)
Nutchos
Toffifay
Pot of Gold (some of them)
Almondillos (once or twice)
Ferrero Rocher (once)

I can't seem to think of any other right now though. Anyone else?

You know, the peanutbutter balls rolled in melted choc...with just the top of the peanut butter ball showing (where the toothpick was inserted to dip it)
My friend and i make HUNDREDS of those every year!....Better than any you can buy!

I didn't realize that. What are you into then Fwan?... toffee, brittle, fudge, road grime?

Any kind of chocolate truffle, Toffifay, Ferrero Rocher, and some chocolates from local chocolate stores.

My father used to get chocolates from a customer every year that I would look forward to.

Oh, and a Caramello bar in my stocking!

Mmmmm... Turtles...

As for others, After Eights and Toblerone come a close second.

I don't think I've ever had those. They sound good though.

Yep, I can see it. We have those here too except it's spelt different.

darn! i thought it was something german that i could show off with!

captiva · Dec 12, 2005

I love Ferrero Rocher but I am too cheap to buy it for myself.

What I love at Christmas isn't really chocolate, but it's nice to have fudge, I love cashews! I know. That does not belong in the chocolate thread.

I like your location

Close enough! Cashews are always good to have around at Christmas and so is fudge!

I think I'm going to change the title to this thread.

A little bit of lovehandles are okay in my books.

truffles!!

sooooo good. I love to let them melt in my mouth

That's something I usually only have around Christmas

Gingerbread men are yummy too. But the best thing about them is to make them and decorate them. I used to make them with the normal gingerbread man / woman shape and also moose-shaped (I WAS living in Northern Ontario at the time

)

Well in that case, what are you doing later

, I'm newly single!

Ok, kidding! You'd just be a rebound!
Oh, I think I was supposed to write something about....oh, yeah, treats....hmmm....I'm not too into candy or even Christmas cookies, but my aunt makes these cookies out of Keebler crackers and then she pours like butter and I think brown sugar and nuts on them...they're my favorite!

fwan · Dec 12, 2005

All those words in bold sound like you are speaking in a totally different language

I have only heard of Ferrero Rocher.

I usually eat my granny's muffles - they are truffles with marshmallows added to them and I don't normally like marshmallows, but she cuts them up into tiny pieces and they are sooo yummy. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that we only eat at Christmas.
