Chocolates

Every year Ryan's family gets together to make chocolates around Christmas. This year we are pretty busy and they are meeting in the middle of the week so we weren't going to be able to join them. The positive of this was that there wasn't going to be a load of chocolate around my house tempting me to eat it, especially when I absolutely no will power when it comes to sweets. Ryan decided that he wanted to make some chocolates of his own, kinds that he really likes since we wouldn't be joining his family. We went out with our shopping list and hit up the bulk barn getting all the supplies we needed. We ended up with a batch of perfect caramels, chocolate covered sponge toffee (it was the first time i've made sponge toffee and it's pretty cool stuff), and reese peanut butter cups. They were so yummy! Ryan was a star and did the reese peanut cups all himself, dipped all the sponge toffee and wrapped the caramels! Now I just really need to work on my will power!
