Sometimes the best medicine for soothing the soul and calming ruffled feathers is chocolate! I made a batch of this last night [I had actually meant to make it for Christmas..... So goes my life!] Then, this morning I spent a few hours at HQ with the Ancient Ones. Listening to my father-in-law refusing to listen to anyone because no-one could have as tight a grip on the facts as he does. Oy! So, when I came home, I was delighted to find the brickle in the fridge, and ate way more of it than was prudent. But,it made me feel much better!

oh is it very fattening, or could I say I need it for my soul. I simply must try this.
What in the world are saltine crackers? They sound like salty biscuits that one would eat with cheese, not chocolate.
Molly, in some future life I shall be slender and you will be plump and I'll try not to smirk.
