To melt chocolate on the range you have to put the chocolate in a bowl over simmering water. Don’t let the water get in the chocolate or it will seize up.
Yes, and I have done that. It just takes longer. lol. An I'm impatient.
(Which is silly because then I end up making it twice 😁😁)
@@FeedingtheByrdshow about micro?
@FeedingtheByrds the water method is really pretty fast. 😉
Yes, you need a double boiler or a makeshift one. Love your recipes and they look like you have been toiling away in the kitchen even though you haven’t. Thanks!
I tried that with a Pyrex bowl and it broke in a million pieces. I don't have a microwave anymore. Any other ideas how to melt things. Ty Hugs
Thank you for sharing your Christian walk. Good for you!!!
It's everything!
Amber,
Where is the testimony folks mentioned. I am so happy for others that speak out for Christ our Savior.😇🙏🧡🧡
My daughter works full time and since I am retired I like to take some treats to them as well as having some at home when people drop in. I try to choose ones I know her family love.
Love that!
We live near an Air Force Base and we loved to take treats to the gate for all the guards and personnel working on Christmas Eve
Great idea!
Amber, I had you pop up on my feed late but I love these recipes. When you are wrapping chocolate you could use some peanut butter, or peanut butter chips or even strawberry or preserves with it to change the taste a little bit. I love you being willing to share your faith! Believe me, when family and friends all fall away being grounded in your faith is what carries you through!
Oh absolutely! It's everything.
For the first time in a long time I finished my Christmas Shopping before Thanksgiving. I hope everyone had a happy healthy Thanksgiving!!!
That is awesome!
When I make these type of treats, I usually give some away. If you want it to be even easier to make the millionaire shortbread, you can buy a can of the Le Lechera caramel where the Mexican foods are in the grocery store. And Walker’s shortbread is so hard not to just eat up. I just bought a bag of the cherry cordial Hershey kisses yesterday, so I might make some of those treats with that.
They are so easy to make! And yes, that caramel would work great with them. So good!
@jennifers1123. I made a cheesecake for Christmas a couple of years ago & when it was finished, I put a circle of the Cherry Cordial Kisses all around the edge of the cheesecake. It looked so pretty. I absolutely LOVE the cherry cordial kisses! Another trick with the Cherry Cordial Kisses is to unwrap it & put it in your mug of hot chocolate. YUM it is really delicious. Also, on the topic of melting chocolate, if you’re going to melt chocolate chips, if you don’t add some melted butter or some shortening, your chocolate chips will seize up. A couple of years ago, I did dipped pretzel rods & the chocolate in the bowl kept hardening up. That was because I didn’t know that I needed to add the shortening or the melted butter. If you don’t want to bother with adding one of those things, just use the almond bark. It melts very nicely & you can melt it again, if it starts to get hard.
You don’t have to worry about it doing that, because that’s what Almond Bark is made for, to dip other treats in its melted form. I don’t have any Almond Bark on hand right now to look at see what it’s made with, but it’s made with ingredients that allow it to melt & not seize up.
@@lynnkavanagh7361 oh, that sounds fantastic! My mother taught me to add a little shortening to chocolate. I now use coconut oil because I always have it on hand, and it works really well.
To get the onion flavor in dishes, grate the onion. I used to do this for my kids when they were little.
I've tried. 😁😁
I started working on the gifts I will be giving last January. I am making all my gifts this year. I just finished not too long ago (a week maybe) But now I am making other things to prepare...like baking, and making a guest treat. I usually get each person their own personalized size box of chocolates and place them on each dish at the dinner table for an extra "I love you" type thing but this year, I made some miniature gnomes for decor and my husband likes them so much that he went out shopping one day and came home with all the materials I would need to make more, only they will be in red, white and black, making little Santa gnomes. I've made a few and they turned out so cute that I decided that it would be much better than always chocolate.
Awww I love how personalized you are making everything!! So nice.
Oh Amber, I was so on goal to be ahead this holiday season...then the middle of Oct my 85 year old mother had a stroke. I ended up living with her for a month to take care of her...then I did a funeral meal at our church and the next day woke up with COVID. So that was the week of Thanksgiving. I am just now 2 1/2 weeks later still trying to get my energy back. I just went down to my Moms and got her house 80% decorated last night, hoping to get to my house decorations this weekend. Just one year I would love to be decorated by Thanksgiving Day! Oh well, at least I still have my Mom and other than she gets very tired quickly I am blessed to still have her. and she has recovered from her symptoms. So priority in check! Thank you for your recipes. I will be trying some of these for neighbor gifts. They look delicious. Blessings to you
Oh no!! I'm so glad you guys are all on the road to recovery now.
You should use a little rubber spatula to scrape everything out of your sweetened condensed milk can😃 A lot was left in there
We only needed a half can. That's why so much was left!
OMGosh - those Millionaire Bars look fabulous!! I will be trying those first!! LOVE your videos, and how REAL you are!! We all make little "oopsies" during cooking, and you are so fun about it!! With the price of groceries, we're certainly NOT throwing out anything, right?? Wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
Thanks so much!! I'm so glad you enjoy my channel.
Hershey Kiss with an Almond inside would be so good.
Absolutely!
I think I'd sprinkle some chopped nuts, walnuts or pecans on the top right after spreading the choc on them. Thanks for sharing your recipes.
Great idea!
Those millionaires bars look wonderful. My husband will love those! I love the cinnamon sticks. They would be great on a coffee bar or for hot chocolate. Green bean casserole is my favorite. And I could eat the French fried onions out of the can. Thanks Amber 🍫🍩🦃🙏
They would be perfect in a coffee or hot chocolate bar!!
I love these recipe ideas! Thank you 🥰
Glad you like them!
Millionaire Bars are calling my name. I may have to sacrifice my Christmas shaped cookies for this recipe.
They are so good!
I do treat bags for my husbands coworkers and I do a couple neighbors a tin of goodies. I keep a few different things at home for my kids, husband and my grandkids.
That's a great idea!
Thanks for the easy, fast and delicious recipes.
Glad you like them!
These are fun. thanks for quick tips..
You are so welcome!
What a great video!! Thanks so much!!! I can't wait to try all of these recipes!!
Hope you enjoy!
You can use unwaxed dental floss to cut your dough for the pinwheels. Put floss under the dough pull up crisscross and pull.
What a good idea!
I love shortbread cookies as well! They are just so good!
The best!
Good night Amber and thank you for sharing your yummy snacks
You are so welcome!
These all look so good! I am definitely going to try them all this year
So good!!
I’ve started my Christmas buying gifts already. I need ideals of sweet gifts to make. Thanks for the recipes.
You're welcome!
I have most of my shopping done. Love all the treats
You are awesome! Good for you;
I make a lot of my Christmas, I make 3 ornaments beads and wire (200 of each) so I only have my husband, daughter and 9 kid (nieces & nephews to by for.
I’m totally with your husband!!!! It’s totally the texture! Merry Christmas!!!!
Merry Christmas to you too!
You are incredibly creative!!!! Thank you for sharing!🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦🍁
Thank you! 😊
I want to make all of them! I’m going to watch the other video right now!
Yay!! So glad you enjoyed
i like making easy desserts. I'm going to be making a few of these.
Let me know how it goes!
Love these recipe ideas. They are perfect when there is only two of you.
We agree!
All looks great so good definitely going to try them
Hope you enjoy!
These ideas are great. Look a heck of a lot easier than the chocolate candies my daughter and I make for Christmas gifts.
Soo easy!
They all look so delicious
Thank you!
thanks!!!!!
Awesome recipes, thanks Amber ❤️👍🙏🏻🙏🏻👍❤️
Glad you like them!
I usually make up cookie basket for my friends. Also make Jared hot fudge to give to all my friends. I get the baskets and treat bags at dollar tree
They have great options for treats!
I want to make all of them! So very easy!
They really are so easy!
Definitely will try the millionaire bars first! Everything looks good.
Awesome! Thank you!
They all look great! I think I'll make the puff pastry with chocolate bar filling for an upcoming cookie exchange. Loved your faith story. It is an individual journey; can't get by on grandma's coattails.
Absolutely!!
cool
I would love them all, I will make the pie crust ones for others for sure
yum!
You could put your shortbread (or other cookies for that matter) into a zip lock bag; smash them a few times with a rolling pin and roll them. No equipment required. Also everything looks fabulous.
Absolutely! Great tip
Genius ideas. All would be great to gift.
Absolutely!!
Hello Amber. 75% I started wrapping presents 🎁 yesterday 12.1.2023. Passed years I wrapped the presents on Christmas Eve 12.24. I took the photos and video while everyone slept. This year I change I started early. I am taking it easy on myself this year for the 1st time. I will continue to keep our traditions. Recording our daughter coming down the steps and sitting by the Christmas tree 🎄Even if she is a Gen Z. We play Santa 🎅 🧑🎄 and give each other presents 🎁We watch family Christmas movies like A Christmas Story. Is a Wonderful World 🌎 National Lampoon Christmas Vacation. I want to make 1st the puff pastry with the Hershey bars super delicious. #familytime #Christmas
I love this!
Amber, I just love your channel. You are so funny when you make a mistake but take it in stride. That is so like me. I love all these treats you made today. I think anything with chocolate will be what I make first. LOL
Thank you so much! Hopefully it's relatable for most people. It's no production here, just real life!
I will be making the treats you shared with us today. I like to give the Christmas treats to family and friends and my husband takes some to work to share with his crew members.
Yes, try it out and let me know what you thought!
I'm making the cinnamon twists. :)
They're getting ready to go in to the oven right now 💝
Hope you enjoy!
OMGOSH these are All great and Oh So Easy ❤🤗. I’m All about Easy AND Tasty 😋
The easier the better. Thank you so much!
I WOULD LIKE TO WISH Y'ALL A VERY HAPPY & BLESSED THANKSGIVING . HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY &GOD BLESS Y'ALL VERY MUCH . (TAMMY FROM CALIFORNIA)
Thanks so much! Same to you!
thank you for the great ideas I made so many pie crusts for pies this Thanksgiving for pies I had some crusts left over I put in the freezer I am going to make the cinnamon sugar pinwheels my granny used to take leftover pie crusts and sprinkle them with cinnamon sugar and bake them and cut them up and I loved it making them into pinwheels looks so awesome and cute 🙂
Great idea!! So fun to use the leftovers like that.
Million dollar bars look amazing! My Christmas shopping is almost done.
That's awesome!
I'm ahead on my shopping, ( first time ever! Lol) only like a few gifts to be completely done!!🎄
Love that!
Treat tray for home🎄
😋
Powdered onion is a good option too. Thanks for the recipes.
Absolutely!
I'm way ahead, all my christmas pressies were in by the end of September. My Turkey, Joint of Beef, Ham etc, all vacuum sealed and in my freezer. Veg is prepped ready to go, desserts planned. Starters in freezer all I need is the fresh produce which I'll get nearer the time. We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in Scotland but Christmas. We celebrated harvest festival in October but its not a big holiday. Great recipes Amber, I make the millionaires shortbread but I use chocolate vermicelli on the top as opposed to melted chocolate. It reminds me of my childhood. Thank you for sharing xxx
Wow!!! You really are ahead. That's amazing.
Also, I think we might be coming to Scotland in the spring! It will be one of our stops.
Brilliant, Spring is usually the nicest weather here in Scotland, keep me posted xx
A way to add onions. You grate them with a fine grater. I did that becsuse my kids didnt like the texture, some said they didn't like onions. No one ever complained nor did they know. An easy hack for onions. Hugs
Love it!
we give away to neighbors, and they really love them.
Love that!
Million dollar shortbread wins for me! Oh my gosh - I just found out you home school too!! You are some super mom Amber!
Haha! I don't know about supermom but yes, this is our 8th year homeschooling. We love it!
Good recipe
Thanks!
@@FeedingtheByrds Welcome 🤗
❤
I would try lemon curd on the puff pastry.
Oooo! That would be good.
Such cute ideas. I would suggest “gluing“ those marshmallows together with some melted white chocolate or white almond bark when you make the snowmen instead of using a toothpick. That way you needn’t worry that they forget about the toothpick.
Love that idea, will have to try that!
Hi Amber!! I’m loving this video & I’m ready to make some treats! Is there any chance you could link your “treat” video from last year also? Thanks!! 🎄
Of course!
ruclips.net/video/numyNRL7g1Q/видео.html
Good to have to shortcuts recipes to have inyour recipe box.❤❤❤
Yes!
Put colored napkin in your white serving plate/bowl then add treats! Instant color.
What a great idea!!
I'm the same way I don't like the texture or onions or pepper so I blend them with chicken broth or whatever liquid I'm using after I cook them a little and it always works out
Awesome! I may need to try that again.
I've already put the ingredients for the Millionaire bars on my shopping list. I'm not a fan of chocolate croissants, so I'd put some jam in the center and a bit of a glaze on the top.
Jam and glaze sound like a delicious alternative!
I have been doing the cinnamon and sugar on extra pie crust for years. But I haven’t tried the others at least not yet.
Definitely give them a try!
Is a turkey stuffing in cranberry sauce
I unwrap ready made caramels and melt them in the microwave and pour it over the cookie layer. Easier and faster than making your own.
Great idea!
I make a variety of treats and give them to our neighbors and take to our church, doctors’ offices, to our delivery people (usps, ups, amazon), and to our service folks (pest control, gardeners, mail carrier)
Love this!
You have to use a double boiler to melt the chocolate on the stove top
I bought wiltons chocolate melting pot melts the chocolate perfectly
I know. Sometimes I just need to slow down and do it the right way!
Started this weekend
online( no stores forme on black Fri weekend)
Me either! I'd rather shop in my pj's!
My husband band doesn't luke onion texture as well and my oldest son is allergic to them
Bash biscuits in a bag with a rolling pin!
Yes!
Add small amount of coconut oil to chocolate before melting if you want it a bit thinnner
Great tip!
All these look shareable.. hard to pick which one .. they all look delicious
Thank you 🤗
You are most welcome 😘
millionaire bars !
So good!
Use condensed onion soup. It works to add the flavor and hide the onions
Hmm.. I don't think I've tried that!
Could I use the pie crust for the croissant cookies?
They would be a little different consistency, not quite as puffy, but they could still be good that way!
Those look great and very simple. I would love to make the Millionaires!
What curriculum do you use for homeschooling?
We use a mixture of several different things. We've never done the "box set" kind of thing, because there is always something that won't work for us. So we go with an al a carte approach!
I love making different treats and giving them as gifts for close friends and family.
Such a fun gift idea!
All done with shopping for 14 people 🎉
Nice!!
Can you use white chocolate in short bread recipe.
I don't see why not!
Hi Amber. how are you? good video. suggestion for 1st recipe shown is you could add custard to it. to give a little extra flavor.
I like these recipe ideas. I bet everyone in your family loves these.
Thank you so much!
And yes, I love experimenting with recipes to make fun new ones. Let me know if you try with the custard!
😋❤️
Yes please. LOL.
😍
I’m in the uk, is the pie crust puff pastry or shortcrust pastry please? great recipes thank you x
Honestly, I am not sure. I don't know what shortcrust pastry is.
It’s short crust ☺️
❤🎉
I hate onions too!!! I use onion powder instead
Your brain simply had a hiccup!!! It happens lol ❤😂
😁😁
Create your onions find and he'll never know if you grade them up😊
I've tried! Lol
The box of walker shortbread cookies is cheaper than the butter you would need to make from scratch.
Hah. Good point!
I no longer buy Christmas gifts (family has gotten too big) I now make hundreds of cookies and each family gets a tray of cookies
Love that!!
NEW TO UR CHANNEL. I USE TO BLEND RAW VEGGIES TO PUT THINGS IN THAT THE KIDS IF THEY KNEW WOULDNT HV EATEN IT LOL. BUT JUST PUT UR ONIONS, IN UR CASE, UR BLENDER AND IF NEED TO ADD S TABLESPOON OR TWO OF WATER. IT WILL COOK OFF. BUT IS AMAZING IF U HV A FOOD PROCESSOR. JUST A LIL FYI LOL. 💙🙏🏼💙
Thanks for the tip!! So glad you found my channel.
We don’t have thanksgiving in this country?
That's ok! There are still some great recipes to use.
**You could break up the short bread a bit to blend easier
**If hubby doesn’t like the texture of onion but likes the taste, just cut it up fine
**To get a half can of condensed milk, weigh with scales, be sure to give the bowel you put it in a quick spray of oil, it will slide right out.
Thank you for the tips!!
Hello. The short bread cookie recipe is awesome with Nutella instead of caramel.
Sounds SO Good!
