Bite-Size Honey Popcorn Balls

Bite-Size Honey Popcorn Balls

These sweet crispy popcorn balls are so much easier to pick up and pop in your mouth than full-sized popcorn balls. For a festive touch, serve them in brightly colored popcorn bags.

Butterscotch Caramels

Butterscotch Caramels

We highly recommend wrapping these silky-sweet candies individually because the unwrapping will slow you down and keep you from popping too many in your mouth.

Coconut Haystacks

Coconut Haystacks

It's hard to beat a three-ingredient treat with a flakiness that resembles a Butterfinger candy bar. You don't need a candy thermometer for these chocolates–just be careful when you're melting the chocolate so it won't burn.

Spider Web Cookies

Cooking Light

Spider Web Cookies

Use a zip-top plastic bag with a small hole snipped in the corner to pipe the frosting onto the cookies. Then pull a wooden pick through the frosting to make a spider's web.
