Great Homemade Chocolate Candy Recipes are a treasure that are often passed down from generation to generation.
It is wonderful to teach your children to make a traditional treat that your grandma used to make.
What? You've never had this pleasure? Don't worry. It's not too late to rectify that situation no matter what your age or situation.
You can start your own traditions so that one day your kids and
grandkids will say, "Remember when Grandma made these yummy treats?"
To
help you get started developing your own collection of homemade
chocolate candy recipes, I invite you to begin by experimenting with
some of these tried and true delectable concoctions.
If you
are like me and have a couple of recipe gems that you absolutely adore,
please share with the rest of us! Can we ever have too many chocolate
candy recipes? Definitely not!

If you are new to candy making, you might want to go over some basic
rules that will help you achieve the best results. Chocolate can be a
little bit tricky, but don't let this scare you.
If you employ these candy making tips you won't have any trouble, but you will have a lot of fun. Don't forget to lick the bowl!
It may take a little longer to whip up a batch of cream filled chocolates because the chocolate has to be tempered first, but that little extra effort is certainly worth it.
If you follow the instructions for tempering, you will love the results.
You may also like to try these buttercream candy recipes, too.
Whether you are dipping nuts, fruit, fondant, or caramels into melted chocolate, these recipes will help you design a chocolate covered treat that is a winner and that your whole family will enjoy.
You
may even want to get creative and drizzle a contrasting melted
chocolate on top for added eye appeal (white on dark, dark on milk,
etc.).
Let your imagination soar!
Some people wouldn't classify fudge as candy. I am definitely NOT one of them! :)
Chocolate fudge
happens to be one of my all time favorite luxuries, so I couldn't bear
to leave it out. It has that melt in your mouth richness that you can
savor with every bite.
There are quick and easy microwave fudge recipes as well as old fashioned slow cooking fudge creations that are assembled on the stove top. Both methods produce results that are hard to keep around, at least at my house.
Chocolate candy made in molds can be especially fun for kids. They can
make a variety of different designs without too much trouble.
Chocolate candy molds
are also really great for favors at parties, showers, and other special
events. With these recipes for chocolate candy molds, you can change
the flavor by adding your own preferred flavored oil.
I love peanut brittle, but when you add chocolate it takes on a whole new dimension.
Try some of these chocolate peanut brittle recipes for something a little out of the ordinary. You will be pleasantly surprised with the results, I'm sure.
