today i picked up my fusing pieces and have glued findings to them. The pieces are far from perfect, but like you could tell. They are pretty and shiny and make people go 'oooh' and that's all I need!
Chocolate Spiders! I made chocolate spiders and boy are they sweet. Here's what I did-
1pkg of semi-sweet morsels (the standard size bag)
1pkg of white chocolate chips (I happened to have these on hand, but two bags of the other would be fine)
1container of chow main noodles (the crunchy ones in the chinese food section of your supermarket)
1 box rice krispies
1 can spanish peanuts (small can is fine)
Melt the chocolate in the microwave, about 2 minutes. stop at 1 minute, stir, then heat some more.
using a wooden spoon, stir chips till smooth.
Now the fun begins - pour in about half the can of chow mein noodles, stir. Add about half the can of peanuts and then toss in some krispies. Keep stirring until the stuff is coated. I found that Iused the whole can of chow mein noodles, and about 2 cups of krispies and a half can of peanuts.
Get a cookie sheet, put wax paper on it, drop dollops onto the paper in whatever size you can scrape off your fingers and spoon. Cool in the fridge for about 30 min until set. Store in tupperware container inside the fridge or they'll get 'melty' in your rather warm Texas house in July. Makes a few dozen unless you keep eating the batter, then only makes 5.
