I've never made Reeses before. The only candy I've ever made is fudge. I bet that was tasty. :D

I'm having a problem with the chocolate. I want a butter based one, but it was not thick enough to hold it's shape without being chilled.

ZenKitty · Posted 05-02-2016, 11:39 AM

I use butter with my fudge and then chill it, but once it's been chilled it usually holds its shape pretty good.

I've made Buckeyes, which are peanut butter balls that are coated with chocolate, but the very top remains exposed so that they look like the nut. They taste like Reese cups too...you have to use a LOT of powdered sugar in them.

ZenKitty · Posted 05-02-2016, 09:11 PM

Oh my. Those look so incredible!

Athilea Majiri · Posted 05-02-2016, 09:16 PM

They are very yummy...and now I want some.

ZenKitty · Posted 05-02-2016, 09:17 PM

I have quite the sugar craving now. @_@

There is another thing we make sometimes called potato candy. It's potatoes, lots and lots of powdered sugar, and peanut butter. Just looking at them will rot your teeth.

ZenKitty · Posted 05-02-2016, 10:08 PM

I've never seen or heard of that. What does it taste like?

Athilea Majiri · Posted 05-02-2016, 10:12 PM

sugar and peanut butter. It's so strange too. You boil the potatoes and then as you add the sugar it liquefies them. You actually have to add a lot of sugar because you need to potatoes to be dough like.

ZenKitty · Posted 05-02-2016, 10:13 PM

Interesting. I'd like to try one some time.

Athilea Majiri · Posted 05-02-2016, 10:24 PM

I've never seen them sold anywhere, maybe they are but so far as I know it's strictly a home made sort of thing.

sounds like it would taste good if it was fried afterwards to give it a crispy shell

I just made something that tasted kind of like reese's!
I only made it because I had all the ingredients on hand. And in the process I got rid of some leftover chunky peanut butter and pretzels.

the Potato Candy? No, they aren't fried. I've never had them fried and I'm not sure I would want to do that.
