I love to bake, but making candy has never been my forte. I’m not sure why, but I never seem to be very good at it.
However, this is one candy recipe that’s a cinch to make. In fact, it was so quick and easy, that I was enjoying my first taste less than an hour after I started making them. What can I say…they were hard to resist. 
~Enjoy~
