Some/thing Borrowed

something_orange.jpgFor my third contribution to Robin Reagler’s blog carnival, here’s Some/thing Borrowed: a recipe for Valentine’s Day.

chocolate_buttons.jpgWhat better for Valentine’s Day than something chocolate? What better for parents on Valentine’s Day than an easy chocolate project to whip up with the kids? When I saw these Chocolate Pretzel Buttons, I knew they were winners. A hint of salt, a burst of sweet . . . and with Hershey’s now making Kisses in dark chocolate, what’s not to love? (I’m of the strong opinion that white chocolate is an oxymoron.)

    I made these at Christmas using Hugs and peppermint Kisses, and red and green M&Ms.

    (See photo on the page that I’ve linked to.)

    I decided that they should be called “Mrs. Claus’ Nipples.”

    Seriously, look at them!

    Just had to add that, after looking at your photo, I’ve decided that I will look for the round (rather than square) waffle pretzels next year, to make them look even more nipplish!
