Festive Christmas Candy Recipes

When the holidays start drawing near, most of us drool with anticipation while thoughts of festive Christmas candy recipes dance in our heads. Creating traditional or old family recipes like creamy milk chocolate, minty peppermint, chewy nougat or a sensational gourmet candy found only during the holidays is a great way to bring the family together. Thankfully there are plenty of Christmas candy recipes to choose from.

If you can’t find a recipe that produces a special reminder of past Christmases, you can always select a new favorite from the following recipes.

Stained Glass Windows Recipe

Ingredients You Will Need:
½ package 12-ounce semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ package 12-ounce milk chocolate chips
½ cup pecans
½ cup walnuts
1 10 ½ ounce bag of colored miniature marshmallows
1 stick margarine
2 cups sweetened flaked coconut

This recipe will make about a dozen cathedral windows that are coated in milk chocolate and about a dozen that are coated in semi-sweet chocolate. For ease, make one batch at a time.

Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add the milk chocolate chips and ½ stick of margarine. Melt and cool. After the chocolate has cooled, add half the marshmallows and the pecans. Stir the marshmallows and nuts until just coated.
