Last Thursday, Jaylan and I went to The Center of Puppetry Arts. I nearly wet my pants when I saw they were featuring Jim Henson. It was like I was an eight year old kid again. Remember this, "Laugh your tears away (clap clap), Worry for another day..." Yes, they had Fraggles.
Due to my lack of planning, Jaylan didn't enjoy himself nearly as much as I did. "Mommy, let's go eat." was all I heard for the entire 45 minutes we were there. After we left the museum I grab Jaylan Chick-fil-a and headed to my favorite candy store in Underground Atlanta. We picked up chocolate peanut butter cups, chocolate caramel cashew clusters and fudge.
Here is a quick, yet great recipe for those chocolate cashew clusters.
Ingredients
2 lbs milk chocolate candy coating, coarsely chopped
1 cup salted cashew halves
