PEANUT BUTTER TURTLE CANDIES
Every year at the holidays, these candy turtles are a huge hit with family, friends and coworkers. I get lots of requests for more and have even been told not to bother with a holiday visit if I don't bring my turtles-talk about a compliment! They're also good with dark chocolate and salted pecans. -Misty Schwotzer, Groveport, Ohio
