| Crockin' Crayons |
|
Ingredients: 1 (24 count) box of crayons or 50-75 pieces of broken crayons makes 5 Valentine's Day Hearts 1 6-cup heart shaped muffin tin (Small enough to fit in slow cooker. Silicone works best) Optional: Card stock or cute bags to make delivery of these crayons as festive as you choose. |
Directions: Fill muffin tin about 2/3 full of broken crayons (no wrappers) with the color combinations of your choice. Place muffin tin into slow cooker, cover and cook on HIGH for about 45 minutes. Turn slow cooker off and remove crock onto hot pads. After about 10-20 minutes of cooling you can place crock in refrigerator to speed up the process. Once crayons are cooled off take pan out and easily "pop" out the heart shaped (or get creative for other holidays) crayons and you are set! Attach to a homemade Valentine's card or place in a bag and attach a ribbon! |
| Chocolate Covered Strawberries and Marshmallows |
|
Ingredients: 1 package chocolate almond bark 1 package white chocolate almond bark 2 cartons of strawberries 1 package heart shaped jumbo marshmallows 1 – 2 slow cooker liners |
Directions: Place liner in slow cooker. Add chocolate, cover and cook on LOW stirring every now and then until melted. You kinda have to "baby" this and make sure it doesn't scorch! After it is completely melted you can switch to warm and start dippin'! Dip your strawberries and marshmallows in the chocolate and roll in the topping of your choice and set on wax paper until chocolate is firm! |
