Heavenly Hash
At Christmas, we would always go to town to see Santa Claus arrive, or to the lighting of the Christmas Tree. Mother would take us to Sears Candy Counter and get candy. I remember that my brother always got Bridge Mix. My younger brother would get Spice Drops and Chocolate Stars. I would have Heavenly Hash. I remember one rainey, cold night that we made our way to the counter. I would walk around the square counter with slanted glass. I liked to give them all consideration, but I knew that I was going to have the hash. Today, I make my own hash and will share the recipe with you.
1 Pk. Almond Bark Candy Coating
1 Bag Large Marshmellows
1 Cup (+/-) Nuts
Large Microwave Safe Bowl
Rubber Spatula
Foil Covered Cookie Sheet
1 package Almond Bark, broken into a large glass microwave safe bowl. I have a very large Measureing Bowl. Melt the chocolate for 50 second. Check to see if it has melted. I use a large rubber spatula to stir the chunks. If all is not melted cook for 30 seconds longer. Do not boil or elevate the temperature too high. The balance will melt from the heat of the bowl. Cut 1 bag of Large Marshmellows into warm chocolate. I use kitchen shears, cutting some completely, some 3/4 through, and I leave a few whole. Add 1 Cup of your favorite nuts. Stir to coat all Marshmellows and incorporate Nuts. Pour mixture onto a foil lined cookie sheet. Shake down. Allow to cool until solidified. You may chill in fridge. Once completely cool, slice into squares to your liking. This can be made with Waltnuts, Pecans, or Almonds. I normally break them rather than using whole. This is simple to make but is very showy and looks great in a covered container. Make enough to share with others in a bag or box. I like to make up containers of cookies and candies for friends and family. Make this a tradition for your family.
