TAFFY GRAPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Wash and dry grapes (the bigger the grapes the better).
• Chop up the honey roasted peanuts (a food processor works great). You don't want dust, just very small pieces. Place in a bowl.
• Melt almond bark or white chocolate chips in the microwave. Place them in a microwave safe bowl and heat on high for about 30 seconds. Remove and stir and repeat at 15-20 second intervals until completely melted, stirring each time.
• Lay out wax paper on a cookie sheet. Dip your grapes about half way in the bark or chocolate, then into the finely chopped peanuts. Set on wax papered tray. When all grapes are dipped put them into the refrigerator to help them set quicker. When all the grapes are set, put them onto a covered serving platter or in a ziplock bag and store in the fridge until needed. These are fine made a day ahead, but I wouldn't make them much earlier than that. Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together sour cream, confectioner's sugar and vanilla. Stir in grapes. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan, combine butter and brown sugar. Stir constantly and cook over medium heat until mixture starts to thicken. It does not need to boil.
• Pour brown sugar and butter over grape mixture and stir until well blended. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
