Sharon the rudolph noses are more a candy and very easy to make...my kids and hubby loved them.

Heat oven to 170

Ingredients, bite size waffle pretzels
hersheys kisses or hugs
red and green m&m's

places waffle pretzels on foil lined cookie sheet, top each with a kiss or hug. Place in oven for about 4-6 min or until chocolate is soft(white choc melts faster so I did 2 trays one with hugs and one with kisses) Take out of oven and quickly press an m&m in the centre of each chocolate. Cool in fridge.

Crunchy Nut Clusters

Candy paper liners
2 2/3 cup sweetened flaked coconut
2 cups cashews, pecan or macadamian nuts
2 2/3 cups semi sweet chocolate
Glaze...
1/3 cup white chocolate
1/2 teaspoon shortening


Line 4 miniature muffin tins with paper cups
heat oven to 350
Spread coconut on cookie sheet and toast in oven for 10 minutes...stirring often to keep from burning. Remove put in bowl
spread nuts on cookie sheet and toast for 9 minutes stirring often to prevent burning. Remove put in bowl with coconut
Melt chocolate.
Pour over nuts and coconut
Drop by teaspoonful inot paper lined cups
Chilll about 45 minutes
Glaze
Melt white chocolate and shortening
Put in small ziplock bag cut a small hole in one end.
Drizzle over the clusters.
Chill

Glad you liked the cookies, Deb! They are one of my favorites!!

I'll be baking a few things soon as I get over this cold! Not a lot, Mark can't have TOO much and I don't NEED them. Want them , yes, need them, no!!!!
I am really craving some gingerbread cookies, so those for sure. And of course my Mississippi Mud Cake that it wouldn't be Christmas without!

hugs, train
