Rats! Oh well, I get to eat all that chocolate.

I’ve been meaning for some time to make these chocolate “haystacks” — melted chocolate chips, crunchy chow mein noodles and dried cherries. I thought I had the perfect excuse when I saw the mundane challenge was sweets/candy. After I made them I read the “fine print” — sweets/candy (not chocolate). Rats! Posting this shot anyway — just not tagging for the challenge. Posting an alternate candy photo on tomorrow’s date.

Oh hard lines, but as you say, there's always a silver lining. :-)

I', sure they taste absolutely delicious......however that they were chocolate was not my first thought !!!!!!! :)

A different take on no-bake cookies. I don't like chocolate, but I'll bet with the cherries they would work with white chocolate.

I will be glad to eat any you don't want! Great photo
