Hi, I am doing a vendor fundraiser next friday and needed some recipes that people have tried and liked for wrapping up in baggies to hand out as samples and thank you for your orders! I looked up two but don't know how good they are: festive winter crunch bark or confetti crisps. If anyone has any ideas or recipes please share!

thanks!

candy baggiesI have left over candy baggies when I used to make candy bouquets like 3x5 size bags. Tie them with fall color ribbon and add my business card with it with maybe the name of the treat on the back and a poem? But still have not figured out what to make? I may try the confetti crisps even though I don't know how they taste. But I guess if it was in the Best of or All the Best cook book it shouldn't be too bad!
 
I made the Crispy S'more Treats for a get together and everyone LOVED them, they hardly made them to the table! They are in the PC Casual Cooking cookbook.
 
What about the 2-step fudge, in mini muffin wrappers, kept on your chillzanne? So yummy.

Crispy S'mores Treats2 1/2 cups cocoa-flavored sweetened rice cereal
6 whole graham crackers, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
3 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows, divided
3/4 cup milk chocolate morsels

Place lid on bottom of scalloped bread tube; spray w/butter-flavored nonstick cooking spray. Place cereal in classic batter bowl. Chop crackers w/ food chopper; add cereal and set aside.

Melt butter with brown sugar over low heat, stirring occasionally using mix n scraper. Add 2 1/2 cups of the marshmallows; stir until melted. Remove from heat and add to the cereal mixture until well coated. Stir in remaining marshmallows.

Using large scoop sprayed w/ cooking spray, immediately place mixture in bread tube and press evenly with tart shaper. Let it cool completely.

Remove lid from tube and push mixture out onto cutting board. Cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices using serrated bread knife.

Microwave chocolate morsels in small micro-cooker uncovered on high for 1 minute, stirring every 15 seconds until melted. Pour chocolate into small plastic bag; twist top and cut a small corner off. Decorate treats with chocolate and let stand until it's set.

Yields 16 treats; Prep time 10 min, cook time 5 min, cool time 30 min.

**I didn't have the bread tube the first time I made these but I just used the bar pan and then cut them into squares. You can make little circle swirls on the treats to make them look pretty.
