As I have mentioned before, I don't like to cook.  But, the Holidays always call for a little baking.  These were easy enough the kids could pretty much do them on their own.  That is a good recipe in my book!  LOL

Heat Chocolate Almond Bark in Microwave as directed on package.  Dip the pretzels and spread on wax paper to dry.

Melt white Chocolate pieces in microwave.  Put in a plastic bag, clip corner and squeeze white chocolate over pretzels. (Make sure to eat any imperfect pretzels!)


While white chocolate is hot sprinkle with crushed candy canes.


Viola!

We also made a few of  these...

Take a pretzel and sit a Rolo on top.  Bake at 350 degrees for 3 minutes.  The press a pecan in the middle of the Rolo.  these are really easy and YUMMY!

Last but not least we made these Stain Glass Cookies...


To make these you use regular sugar cookie dough. After cutting out the shapes use mini cookie cutters to cut out shapes in the cookies.  Sprinkle smashed up pieces of Jolly Ranchers into the openings.  Bake as usual.  Let cool completely on the cookie sheet.  When you take the off you will have cookies that look like stain glass. 
Here we are adding the Jolly Ranchers.

Here are the kids having fun assembling the cookies. 

Whew, now we are done baking for the year!  Hooray!!!!  LOL
