Who makes their own Christmas candy?

I've always wanted to do this, but just never got around to it. Anyone make their own?

Yup- various flavors of fudge (peanut butter, peppermint, rocky road. . . . ) penuche, peanut brittle. . . . .

I can't do divinity worth eating though

I do fudge and chocolate covered cherries, truffles, peanut brittle, nut clusters, hay stacks, but not all in one year... We do them depending on supplies on hand and what is is we would like to eat or give away....

Yes I make fudge, peanut brittle, almond bark and truffles. I usually try a new recipe for something a little different each year along with my old stand bys!

I love Christmas candy making, it is one of my favorite holiday traditions. I make several types of fudge, buckeyes, chocolate coated cookies and pretzels, turtles, glazed pecans, cinnamon hard candy (I have made these into suckers also), peanut butter balls. My mouth is watering just thinking of them.

Kathy, would you please post your recipe for cinnamon hard candy?

I make and wrap a ton of home-made carmels. I also do divinity for Dmom and Dsis, and fudge.
