You know...all that bubbling and cooking just wears those poor little caramels out! Just a side note -- my DH and I made this in partnership, and he ended up actually putting them in the pan. He sprayed the pan w/ Pam, put in the tin foil, then forgot to spray the tinfoil! LOL Poor dear. They lifted out of the pan easily, but we had to sort of peel away the tin foil from the sides where the caramel was. They still came out well...and they are absolutely perfect with a cup of coffee!

Yummmmmmm, Teach. Gonna try that one as soon as I get some caramel candies. I am salivating. Texannie, here is a dessert recipe pear and wine lovers go for. Poached Pears 2 c white wine 4 c water 1 vanilla bean, sliced open 1 T lemon juice plus extra to prevent pears from browning 4 pears, peeled and cored (Bosc or Bartlett) 2 1/4 c sugar In a saucepan combine wine, water, vanilla and lemon juice. Simmer for 5 mins. Add pears and poach for 8 mins. Remove pears from liquid and continue to reduce sauce by one half. Plate pears and pour reduced sauce around each one. Tip: Don't use a cheap wine, and the pears should be just ripe, not under and not overly. (Learned from experience ) Placing a green pear in a brown paper bag for a day or two works wonders.

It's not a recipe, and it's not something you create. But this item was brought to our meeting yesterday and it was fabulous! Imagine a flower arrangement, that isn't made from flowers, but from fresh fruit! I found the website (I swear I have NO financial interest in this company). http://www.ediblearrangements.com And for those who LIKE chocolate, they do chocolate covered fruit arrangements as well. 'squeek'

I'm just returning with some feedback on Teachmichigan's Caramel Apple Bars. Have made them twice this week...not a good sign. Anyway, today I modified the recipe slightly and wanted to fill you in. Instead of the wrapped caramels and the milk combination, I just used a 12.25 oz bottle of caramel sundae sauce. My reason was because I can't keep my mitts off the candies long enough to have enough for the recipe. (I know! I'm worse than a kid!) The substitution worked very well for me...delicious and easier. Also, I didn't use ground nuts, I chopped them instead this time and I liked that even better. Thanks for the great recipe, Teach. I have enjoyed it way too much!

great substitution, I never thought of that. I am a caramel lover, but could never see myself unwrapping so many for a recipe..there would never be enough for the recipe. One for me, one for the recipe.

Landi, I found a recipe that calls for Amaretto and Almonds. I have made a lot of them and have given them out this Christmas in place of some of the Kahlua Cakes. They have been just as big a hit as the Kahlua. I kept one for us and it is a great cake very moist. I'll post the recipe in the recipe thread. Texannie, How did your dinner party go? What did you decide to serve?

The one in October? It went very well. I did a chicken with artichokes and mushrooms on top of angel hair with a side of sauteed spinach. Did an orange pound cake with a raspberry ganache. Now I am working on my dh's 50th birthday which is New Year's Day. Just gonna be a Rose bowl watching party so it will be chili, tamales and lots of dips.
