Chocolate Caramel Potato Chips





http://www.confessionsofacookbookqueen.com/2010/07/chocolate-caramel-potato-chips.html

Adapted from: The Rocky Mountain Sweet Shoppe Cookbook

INGREDIENTS

12 oz milk chocolate (I used candy melts)
12 oz bag rippled potato chips
14 oz bag of caramels, unwrapped
3 tablespoons half and half
Bag of Heath Bar Bits 'O Brickle

Line baking sheets with wax or parchment paper and set aside. Put caramels and half and half in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for about 3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds. Stir until melted and creamy.

Using a pastry brush,  lightly brush the melted caramel halfway down both sides of the potato chips. Be sure to brush only a light coat, or the chips will get too soggy. Place on lined baking sheets to set for about 30 minutes.

Melt the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and dip the caramel coated chips about a third of the way, allowing the excess to drip off. Sprinkle the Heath Bar bits on the melted chocolate and place back on the wax paper to set for about 2 hours.

Resurrection Rolls





http://go.tipjunkie.com/resurrection-rolls


Ingredients:


  • One can of crescent roll dough

  • 8 large marshmallows (or one for each roll you’ll be making)

  • Melted butter

  • Cinnamon sugar

  • Bible or Easter storybook


  • Assemble rolls and read the story:


    1. Read John 19 while the oven is pre-heating according to the package directions. If you’re really on top of things, spend the week before reading John 12-18 with your kids.
    2. Unroll the crescent rolls. Explain that this is like the cloth they wrapped Jesus in.
    3. Give your child a marshmallow and explain that it represents Jesus… all white and pure because He was without sin.
    4. Roll the marshmallows in the melted butter. This symbolizes the embalming oils.
    5. Roll the marshmallows in the cinnamon sugar. This is like the spices used to prepare his body for burial.
    6. Wrap the marshmallow in the crescent roll cloth, pinching the dough together securely. Don’t worry about the shape so much, they’ll taste the same no matter how you roll or bundle them. This represents how they would have wrapped Jesus’ body. I like to brush them with more melted butter, but it’s not necessary.
    7. Put the rolls in the oven (symbolizing the tomb) and bake for the amount of time specified on the package.
    8. While the rolls are baking, read John 20:1-18.
    9. Open the tomb and remove the rolls. When they’re cool enough to handle, break one open and discover what happened to the marshmallow. Jesus is risen! At this point, you can read 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18. Jesus is coming again!
