Homemade Heath Candy Recipe

Question from a reader:  "What is the cracker and chocolate dessert you make?"


This is a recipe I have been making for years.  It is so simple, isn't expensive, and takes next to no time to make!  You can't beat that combination!!  I especially like to make it when I go to any kind of group function, including church or work.  This is always a hit and I have people ask me for the recipe ALL THE TIME!  This is also a hit a Christmas time, as I give it as gifts!!  So I thought I would share it with my friends here on Leave It To June.  ENJOY!!

Homemade Heath Candy

(1) sleeve of saltine crackers (usually about 40)
(1) cup of brown sugar
(1) cup of butter or margarine (2 sticks)
(1) 12 oz pkg of semi-sweet chocolate chips (milk chocolate chips can be used, but makes it MUCH sweeter!)

Using one cookie sheet, line it with tin foil.  (I discovered the no-stick kind, and have found it works much better.  But regular tin foil will work).  Place the saltine crackers side by side on the tine foil, covering the cookie sheet.  Place the brown sugar and the butter in a sauce pan and bring to a rolling boil.  Let boil for 3 minutes.  Pour sugar mixture over the crackers.  Bake at 400 degrees for 7 minutes.  Remove from oven, placing cookie sheet on the door of the oven, leaving oven on.  Sprinkle chocolate chips on the cracker/sugar layer, allowing the chocolate chips to melt.  Spread the melted chocolate evenly with a spoon.  Then place cookie sheet in the refrigerator, allowing the heath candy to completely cool.  Break into pieces, tearing off the tin foil.  Store in an air tight container.  This can also be frozen.

      Over ripe bananas? Not just for banana bread!


      At one time or another, we all end up with over ripe bananas.  That doesn't happen very often at my house, as ALL of my family LOVE bananas.  But every now and then, they don't get eaten at the perfect yellow color (and my kids get pretty picky about brown spots!)  But wait!  Don't throw them out!

      Quite a few years ago, I began throwing the over ripe bananas into the freezer, so that they were there when I needed to make banana bread.  I was not only living the phrase "Waste not, want not" but I was prepared when I felt like making banana bread.  I even have friends that bring me their over ripe bananas to put in my freezer, in the hopes that I will make them some banana bread...hmmmm...sneaky!

      But what about the other great ways you can use over ripe bananas?  One of my favorites is smoothies.  Just take an over ripe banana, put it in the blender with a cup of ice, some vanilla yogurt and a little milk.  Blend and you have a yummy smoothie.  If I want a little different flavor, I will add a few frozen strawberries to the mix, and use apple juice instead of the milk.  Talk about a nutritious breakfast!

      This is an interesting article that gives ideas for using those bananas."Make Use of Over Ripe Bananas"

      How do you use over ripe bananas?  I would love to hear your ideas.

      Vocal Point-An article "Is Couponing Worth It?" Love to hear your thoughts!



      Vocal Point is a great way to speak out when it comes to new products.  They will send you samples of items and you just comment on them.  I was looking on their site today, and saw an article "Is Couponing Worth it?"  I would LOVE to hear your thoughts on this one!


      Personally, coupons are a lifesaver for my family.  We have had times that our budget was tight and without coupons, we would have had difficulty feeding our family and making ends meet.  With a family of 5, it has paid me over and over to use coupon.  I pay my daughter to clip the coupons for me, I use internet coupons ALOT, and am able to feed my family better than I could without using coupons.  When I can save 50% on my grocery bill, why wouldn't I use coupons!!

      Let me know what you think!!
