Does anyone have a maple nut candy recipe, like the Maple Nut Goodies candy? My father loves those candies and I was hoping to make him some for Christmas.
I have two other candy bar recipes you might be interested in too, if you like copycat recipes. A friend gave me Baby Ruth Bars in 1974, and another friend gave me Twix in 1982.
BABY RUTH BARS
Heat together to boiling point: 1/2 Cup White Sugar 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar 1 Cup White Syrup
Blend in 1 Cup Peanut Butter.
Add: 6 Cups Corn Flakes ! Cup Salted Peanuts
Press into a buttered jelly roll pan. Melt 1 Cup Chocolate Chips ofer the top.
TWIX

A friend gave me this recipe in 1985, but I've never made them. Her note on them was they were "Very rich"!
