"I saw this today in the new Family Circle magazine and thought they sounded delicious; a nice addition to the usual holiday cookie/dessert tray. Also posted as request in a thread; this would be great as a bridal party/bridal shower/wedding favor type of gifts. Prep time does not include refrigeration time."

These are great little treats! Super easy to prepare, I melted the chips in the microwave on medium power to save time. I also used low-fat cream cheese. They were delicious and addicting! I kept going back for more!

Welcome! I joined this website in 2001, as a new wife and Mom of a 1 y/o and I was 28 yrs old and did not know about cooking. I found this website cause I searched the web and wanted to find a good recipe for carrots! I found that recipe and so much more here over the years. I learned so much from this website and opened up my eyes to other recipes. I now am 46 y/o. I am now divorced and my then 1 y/o son is now a Marine. I have a wonderful man in my life that loves and appreciates my cooking and I thank this site for all of its help. I still come here for recipes. I hope you like my recipes and your family enjoys them also....there is many here and I love to pass them on.
