      Can I use jiffy peanut butter in the jar instead of the Reesie peanut butter chips I just like the flavor better? And would there be any changes as far as the powdered sugar? Thank you I’m a new subscriber.

    Here's a trick for dipping the oreo balls. Take a plastic fork and break off the two middle tines. Place the cookie on the fork and dip. Then place the fork flat on the cookie sheet and it should slide right off. Also I refrigerate the cookies before dipping

    Good morning. Thanks for having virtual coffee with me as I watch your video. I was so happy to see your chocolate cover cherry recipe. As a teen (I’m now 69 yo) my dad and I would buy each other a box of chocolate covered cherries. We put them on top of the fireplace mantle. One Christmas after unwrapping gifts, we said to each other “where is my box of cherry chocolates.” None to be found. Mom said one evening when she got home she found a small piece of cellophane on the floor by the fireplace. Evidently our German short hair dog, Heidi, had stood up and reached the chocolate and ate both boxes. We knew she loved them. We were surprised she hadn’t gotten sick. (Maybe she had. She had a doggie door to go outside). Lesson learned. Next year those wrapped chocolate went into a cupboard until Christmas morning. LOL. Debi in Vicksburg, MS. 🥰🥰

    Since your family loves peanut butter you should try making the Oreo balls recipe with Nutter Butter cookies. They are equally delicious.

    I do chocolate fudge and peanut butter fudge then what my family calls Crack cookies. It's a cut out sugar cookie from a mix. It's the frosting that makes it crack. A friend who passed made me promise to make them for Christmas every year. I also make peanut butter balls.

    Making Christmas goodies is a labor of love. Even when turning premade ingredients into something different, the work that goes into the little things to make it special!

    I love to make oreo balls. People are always so impressed and it's such an easy thing to make and so delicious. I usually cover them with milk chocolate and also white. I have also done them with flavored oreos (the mint are a hit and also the peanut butter). When I make mine, I put a toothpick about halfway in and then put them in the freezer for about 20 minutes before I dip them. After dipping, I throw them back in the freezer for about an hour and then pull the toothpicks out.
    I love your videos!! Thank you for all of your amazing recipes 🎄

    Love these recipes! You should try mixing peanut butter with powdered sugar roll into balls then chill melt some chocolate and dip them in the chocolate then let the chocolate dry and eat. Known as buckeyes. There's many recipes but this one is easiest.

    @anitaminyard4901 ปีที่แล้ว

    I used to make these and very, very good. Except one year, could not get white to get dry enough and was beginning to taste just like powdered sugar. WELL, I had to much invested in ingredients to toss out, so I chopped the cherries up pretty fine, folded into cream mixture and dipped in chocolate and came up with cherry mash candy. Everyone was soooo impressed!!!
    Some I shared story with, but not everyone!!!! Something may start out one way but ends up in a different way.
    Fun was had by all. Love your site and thanks for sharing and for all your hard work.

    Another way to make the fudge is to get the Reese’s peanut butter and vanilla frosting put both in the microwave for 1 minute each then mix together.. I like to add Reese’s pieces into or on top .... you can also do on jar of the peanut butter and 1 bang of white chocolate melt the jar of peanut butter and mix the chips in the peanut butter

    If you make the chocolate covered cherries around Thanksgiving and set the container they are in where it is cool & dry like a pantry the inside will be liquid by Christmas. My Mommaw and I made them in the 50s & 60s❤❤❤

    @janetgoodworth 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Brooke,when dipping your oreo balls or fruit(chocolate covered cherries) instead of useing a spoon to take out of the chocolate(you waste alot of chocolate un nessesserally)use a dinner falk,thats how professional chocolatiers do it,its the difference between having a pool of chocolate under your balls or fruit,tgen haveing perfectly round balls,lovely, from england 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 with love
