Christmas Crack
Christmas crack is a sweet, salty and delicious treat that is sure to get you into the Christmas spirit! I used dark chocolate with lots of peppermint flavored treats in this recipe, but like most things – this is totally customizable to your own tastes! Not into dark chocolate? Use milk or white! Not into peppermint? Omit it and add something else!!
