We always make fudge, hard tack candy , and peanut brittle. Every once in a while We might do peppermint bark, buckeyes, or rice crispy treats

My mom makes a ton of Christmas cookies, Buckeyes and treats, but with so much time off work this year, I plan to make a bunch as well. I need to make a list in the next few weeks.
