Focaccia

Focaccia is soooo fun to make esp with kids. I love getting my kids involved in cooking. The younger you get them cooking, the more love they have for it and want to do it. I started my son off at 4 years old.. today he LOVES to cook. I did not do the same with my daughter and she is really not into cooking. So, I decided any children we have going forward, their little butts will be cooking. Anytime my nieces or nephews are over, we cook together (bread, pizza, biscuits, whatever).  You Will Need: 4 Cups Bread Flour (King Arthur) 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Sugar (honey or agava)  1.5 tsp Yeast 1 tbsp Oil (olive or avocado) 1 3/4 Cups Warm Water  Bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

Christmas Crockpot Candy

Making candy in my crockpot is a long time Christmas favorite. Kailee and I absolutely love getting into the kitchen and making our own candy with small amounts of ingredients.  The hardest item to ever find is the white almond bark, so typically I have to look at like 5 stores before I find one. Wal-Mart will typically keep this on hand (it is however not called white almond bark it is called vanilla coating chocolate). All our church friends and family love when we gift them these; they always ask for more! It is a very popular candy. We can never make enough for the church bake sales either; as it goes so fast. 
You Will Need:
1 Bag Peanut Butter Chips
2 Cups Chocolate Chips (I use milk chocolate)
1 Container Peanuts 
1 pkg Melting Chocolate (white)
Peanuts into crockpot first then layer the rest of the ingredients. You can top these with festive sprinkles, but I did not have any organic/natural dyed ones at this time. 
Place paper towel under the lid of the crockpot to keep condensation from dripping into the chocolate.
