Festive Peppermint Fudge | April Quick Cooking
Festive Peppermint Fudge
* 2 - 10 oz bags of white baking chips
* 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
* 1-1/2 cups crushed candy canes
* 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
* Red food coloring (optional)
1. Heat baking chips and milk in a pan over medium heat stirring constantly. Once your chips are almost all melted, take it off the heat and continue to stir until the rest of the chips are melted.
2. Stir in crushed candy canes, peppermint extract and a few drops of red food coloring, if you are using it. Mix until well combined.
3. Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper leaving some hanging over the side so you can lift the fudge out of the pan. Lightly spray paper lining to prevent sticking. Spread fudge evenly in pan.
4. Place in refrigerator to cool and set up, at least 2 hours. Remove from pan and cut into small squares.
Enjoy!

Apple Crumb Cake | April Quick Cooking

This is the perfect mix between an apple pie and an apple cake. We leave the apples in big chunks so we get that feel of an apple pie. We also do this in layers with a moist spice cake on bottom, our layer of apple chunks with cinnamon and sugar, and then our crumb topping loaded with pecans. This dessert is perfect anytime but I especially love it with coffee or for a fall brunch. Ingredients:...

Who is making that noise in the back ground.
That is my son. That section was supposed to be cut out since I was just walking around and stirring the fudge. He was excited about watching a video on his iPad.
Beautiful and delicious!
Thank you!
I love that he helped!
He loves to help, most days anyway. 🤣
Don't be intimidated by pecan pie. I've made them multiple times and it was a little bit of a learning curve but not difficult. I'm down to come over and help you. 😁 Love ya, Heather!
That sounds like fun! I will have to try to plan that maybe after the holidays.
@aprilquickcooking absolutely!
How many does it serve?
A lot. 🤣 depends on your serving size. We eat a pretty good size bowl of it (a fiesta ware bowl) and we probably get 8-10 bowls out of it. It makes a huge pot full. That pot is 7.5 quarts if that helps.
Wow sound intresting i must try it thank you 😋😋😋👌💯
I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Ok. I should have looked up the pronunciation before I recorded. It’s fee-low dough. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
They’re so cute and delicate!! That crunchhhh oooh now Im hungry. Also I think I’d eat the whole pan of them in one sitting after all that work😂
Oh, PS my mom is making a chocolate pecan pie for Thanksgiving♥️
She makes the best one!!!! I’m excited for that!
I made them yesterday and they were gone last night. 🤣 So good!
April , these are going to be the bomb for , Thanksgiving And christmas.!!!! My plan. , is to make them the day before , and while the rolls are baking and every one is running around hollering , I'm starvin , they can have1 or 2 of these , until every thing is ready.!!!! Thank you so much for this recipe. Happy. Thanksgiving. 💜💙💚💛🧡❤💜
Since you like things quick, put that filling in a baggie, snip the corner, and pipe into the shells 😊.
Aaron is so excited!!!
He loves the taste test part. 🤣
Looks so good! Thankyou for sharing. Could one use almonds? ❤
I’m sure you could. I would toast them a little beforehand. I have never used almonds. I have used cashews but I didn’t like it as much as the peanuts.
Good job, Aaron
New subscriber. This looks delicious, we'll be trying this soon.
Yay!! Thank you for being here! I hope you love it as much as we do.
This looks good enough to be the main course. I love cornbread with cheese and broccoli. Thanks for sharing- (Lucky Grandma! 👵)
That’s what my mom says - it’s a meal all in itself.
Aaron does an awesome job. So good to see family loving one another.
Thank you!!! So glad you enjoyed watching. 😊
Crock “poot” candy hahaha
Please tell me I didn’t type that somewhere?! 🤣🤣
Love your little helper...tyfs
He is a really good helper. Thank you for watching. 😊
I'm so excited about making the candy just like Aaron🎉 My friends will love this recipe!🎉
I hope y’all enjoy it!!! 💕
Would they set up this well using chopped pecans instead of peanuts? If so they would really be good.😊
I’m not real sure. If you used the same amount of nuts, I’m not sure why they wouldn’t. The only thing different I have tried is I added some dried fruit to it one time and some cashews another time. Those were good but not as good as the original. 😊
I was wondering about adding pecans and some coconut flakes too. 😋
@@Karen_BuschThat sounds so good. I may have to try that.
Im so grateful for this recipe.!!!! You are right. This is an easy way to make candy. Your son is precious. I call that real love. I need to be around that special kind of love. Im not kidding. I do. Thanks again and God Bless you all. 💜💙💚💛🧡❤
Thank you so much! 😊 He has definitely taught us so much about unconditional love. I tell people if they ever volunteer with Special Olympics or any event like that, they will forever be changed. ❤
Well that looks really good tell Aaron he done a good job
Thank you. He is still enjoying the fruits of his labor days later. 🤣 He grabs a couple of pieces out of the fridge every day.
they look good
Thank you! So glad you are here!
Looks like yall had fun! Love it
Thank you for watching!! We did have fun!
I think I will make this one soon.
Yay! I hope y’all love them!
The finished peanut clusters are beautiful. According to the taste test reactions, this candy tastes beautiful too. … Good job, Aaron. High five.🖐️
The guys were just a munching in the background. 🤣
Still looks yummy !
Thank you!!! They tasted great!
Use another egg to crack it. Only one will crack. It’s true. Learned in CS
I have heard that and never tried it. I’m going to try it next time. Thank you!
Great video
Thank you for watching! 💕
Good job! Those plates of food are gorgeous and I’ll bet taste that way! Those peas over rice with cornbread on the side would make a meal. I’ve never added basil to peas, but I love jalapeños so I usually add them. And if you don’t have bacon, sausage also works.
Thank you!!! Anything over rice makes a meal to me. I love rice! 🤣 I love sausage in my red beans but have never tried it in purple hull peas. We will have to try that one day. 😊
Yummmmm!
Thank you, friend!
She’s baaaackk🎉🎉🎉
It feels good to be back!!! Miss you! 🥰
Thank you so much, I had an older box of the RL Cheddar Biscuits and a rotesire (sp?) chicken...so bingo , I found your TH-cam. Cooking now and about to eat !
That’s so awesome! Thank you!! I hope you enjoy it!
great
Thank you!
Looks really good and simple.
Thank you! I’m making it today for our Mother’s Day dinner.
I n the oven not boiling you boil the living, heck out of flavor in the oven with seasonings
Yes, you can bake the chicken as well. Just need some shredded, cooked chicken.
Poke a hole on opposite side and it will pour better 12:11
Oooh!! I never thought of that! Thanks for the tip!
where is a printable recipe for this chicken casserole? also for the carrots as well??
I do not have a printable recipe for those. I have now started typing out the recipes in my new videos but this was an older one. I plan to make this again one day and I will able to add the written recipe to that one. Thank you for watching.
Where did you go ?? Your recipes are great !!! Miss you.
Thank you so much! I plan to make more videos. We have just being go a tough and busy season since my dad passed away - taking care of all of that and we are in the process of moving. Once we get settled, I plan to do lots more videos. Thank you so much for watching!
@@aprilquickcooking Aw sweetie I'm so very sorry to hear about your Dad... 💔 You take care, you hear ? Blessings from my house to yours. 🙂
I had a random craving for this and decided to come watch your video again to make it like you do❤
Awww, thank you!!!! I hope you enjoy it. It’s one of my favorite desserts.
My son, Zeke, has Down syndrome and he he thinks he has met Aaron so I was wondering where y’all are from.
We are in West Tennessee.
@@aprilquickcooking Ok. We live in north AL. One of his friends has the “ A Little Something Extra” ice cream truck and people with disabilities work on it. The lady who owns it has a son with Down syndrome that is really good friends with our son. Anyway, my son thought he had seen Aaron at the ice cream truck gatherings. 😁 It’s nice to meet y’all.
Will be making this next week ❤
I really hope you guys enjoy it! ❤️
Amazing recipe!! Just what I was looking for
I hope you enjoy it. 😊
Great job Aaron and momma! ❤
Thank you!!! 💜
I think that was a very enthusiastic yes from your son❤
Haha! Yes! He gets very excited for food like me.
Yeah.. l have to cut my sodium way down. No bouillon for me. First time l've heard of barbeque sauce in the beans but l'll have try it. 👍💛 And l add some butter in the pan when l add the veggies. It helps de-glaze the pan. And butter always adds to the flavor😊 Looks great !!!
You can leave out the bouillon if you have to watch your sodium but I would maybe supplement with some additional seasonings.
@@aprilquickcooking Found a low sodium bouillon at a Amish store up in Pennsylvania... Got it shipped to me through UPS. It's really Great stuff. Now I can do this👍 Miss seeing you post recipes. Hope all is well. Blessings from my house to yours. 😊
That looks amazing😊💖
I make the most wonderful potato soup. Mine is vegetarian, but this looks delicious. I think I might give this a try. Thanks for sharing. 😋
You make the absolute BEST potato soup!!! It’s always my favorite.
Ms April.. you are a Texan. I just subscripted to your channel. 😊 All these awesome recipes at my fingertips... Ty so very much !! 💖
Thank you so much for the support! I really appreciate it! However, I’m actually from Tennessee, West TN to be exact. 😊
@@aprilquickcooking Lol. There's a Texan in the closet.. 😊💖
@@lindaconner3236😂😂
THANK YOU from Texas. That casserole will be a total hit in my house. I don't have spaghetti noodles but l have egg noodles... and the rest is history. 😊💖
Egg noodles would be great! Hope your family enjoys it as much as mine done. My son can be picky eater and he loves it.
