Christmas Toffee

http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Chelsea-crockett-christmas-toffee.jpg

I have a new sweet & salty addiction and it is called Christmas toffee. I could pop this stuff in my pie hole all day and never tire of it, and I guarantee your friends and family will feel the same! Here is how to make this addicting delicacy.

Ingredients:

• 30 to 40 saltine crackers


• 1 cup unsalted butter


• 1 cup brown sugar, packed


• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract


• 1 1/2 to 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Line a 9 x 13 pan or similar with aluminum foil and spray it very well with cooking spray. Place the saltine crackers in a single layer on the bottom of the pan.


2. In a saucepan, combine butter and sugar and bring to a boil while stirring constantly.  Once a boil is reached, reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 3 to 5 minutes or until mixture has thickened. Stir the mixture often while it simmers to avoid bubbling over or scorching.


3. After mixture has thickened a bit, remove it from the heat, wait 30 seconds, add the vanilla extract and stir. Pour mixture over the prepared pan with the saltine crackers. Bake in for 5- 7 minutes, or until toffee/liquid becomes bubbly.


4. After removing the pan from the oven, let it sit for 3 to 5 minutes. Sprinkle on the chocolate chips and wait for 3 to 5 minutes, letting them soften and melt a bit, and then spread and smooth them into an even layer with a spatula. After they have cooled a bit stick the pan in the fridge or freezer to firm them up. My family actually stores the toffee in the fridge to keep it fresh, and it tastes great cold.

Enjoy, and have a Merry Christmas!

XOXO, Chels

Christmas Nails

Christmas Nails
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Chelsea-crockett-christmas-nails-.jpg

What is a great Christmas outfit without cute Christmas nails? Incomplete! Impress the socks off of everyone this Christmas with your super adorable nails! Here are a few ideas on what nail art to rock to any Christmas event you may attend.

Candy cane nails: Classic! If you want to go all out, then paint candy cane patterns on all of your nails. How you do this is paint all of your nails red and let them dry completely. Then, tape stripes on your nails with scotch tape. Paint white in the gaps of the scotch tape. Peel off the tape when the white paint is dry, and there you have candy cane stripes! If you want to go a little more subtle, paint all of your nails red and then paint one nail with the candy cane pattern as an accent nail.

Sweater themed nails: Paint your nails like a Christmas sweater!

Snow nails: Paint all of your nails white and then roll them in glitter. Boom, snowy nails!

Simple classy nails: If you want to go with a subtle nail style, paint all of your nails black and then paint an accent nail with gold glitter paint. This style is edgy yet subtle, and the gold ties in the Christmas theme.

Nail art is the perfect finishing touch to any outfit.

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

XOXO, Chels

http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/chelsea-crockett-christmas-presents-for-your-pooch-.jpg

You get gifts at Christmas, so why shouldn’t your furry BFF? My dogs Buster, Jolly, and Ella get Christmas gifts because they are like members of the family. We love our doggies, and we know you love yours too! Here are a few ideas on what to get your pooch for Christmas.

Some of their favorite toys: If they like chew toys, get em a few of em! If they like Frisbees or toys you can throw, get them a few!

A treat ball: Do you wish your dog would slow his roll when eating his treats instead of wolfing them down in .2 seconds? Give him a treat ball that stores a treat and creates a challenge for your dog that they will enjoy for hours!

Super cozy blanket: Just like you love a nice cozy blanket, your dog is just the same! Get them a cozy blanket for sleeping and cuddling.

A super cute outfit: This is more for your benefit than for theirs, but still a great gift! Get them an adorable outfit, such as a Santa costume or a cute winter sweater!

Man’s best friend deserves to have a fabulous Christmas too! These gifts are sure to make them wag their happy little tails.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Funfetti Sugar Cookies

Christmas Funfetti Sugar Cookies
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/chelsea-crockett-funfetti-sugar-cookies-.jpg

I am a sucker for a soft, gooey sugar cookie. Especially when they are Christmas themed! This recipe is Chelsea Crockett tested and Chelsea Crockett approved! Here is a recipe for some fun Christmas sugar cookies that are sure to be a hit with everyone who lays eyes on them.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened


• 3/4 cup granulated sugar


• 1 large egg, at room temperature


• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour


• 1/4 teaspoon salt


• 1 teaspoon baking powder


• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda


• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar


• 1/2 cup sprinkles, plus more for sprinkle on top before baking

In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer, cream the softened butter for about 1 minute on medium speed. You want it to be nice and smooth, and then add the sugar on medium speed until fluffy and light in color. Mix in egg and vanilla. Scrape down the sides as needed and then set aside the mixture.

In a medium size bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and cream of tartar. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. The dough can become thick so you may need to stir them by hand. Once combined, stir in 1/2 cup sprinkles.

Scoop out large sections of dough and roll into balls. Make sure the balls are taller, rather than wide. Add a few more sprinkles on top of each dough ball. Chill the balls of dough on a cookie sheet for about 2 hours. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper. Baked the cookies for around 8 minutes. The cookies may appear not fully cooked, but once you allow them to cool they will finish baking. Remove them from the cookie sheet about 3 minutes after allowing them to cool.

These cookies are a crowd favorite! The sprinkles are such a cute added touch to your everyday sugar cookies!

XOXO, Chels

Christmas Party Attire

Christmas Party Attire
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Chelsea-crockett-christmas-party-attire-.jpg

I love going to Christmas parties. I love eating good food, visiting with great friends and wonderful family, and most of all, dressing up! In this article I am going to give you a few outfit suggestions to help you figure out what to wear to any holiday event you may be attending.

Casual: If you are attending a more casual Christmas party then go with something like a plaid button up, dark wash jeans, boots and boot socks, and a neutral infinity scarf!

Semi-casual: If you are going to a little bit nicer party, pair a skirt with some tights and riding boots or booties. Wear a nice sweater or blouse with the skirt and a statement necklace and chunky watch to make a statement!

Dressy: My favorite dressy outfit this winter is the sequined dress and booties outfit. Pair a sequined dress with black tights and black high heel booties! The black tights and booties balance the whole outfit out. Pair a black clutch and simple jewelry with the outfit to finish it off.

Now you will be ready for any holiday party that may come your way!

Merry Christmas!

XOXO, Chels

Christmas time means Christmas parties, and Christmas parties mean fun snacks and activities with friends! Today I am going to show you a sweet Christmas treat that you can make with your friends and family and serve at a Christmas party! These festive treats are sure to be a crowd favorite because A, they involve Oreos and B, they are adorable!

Ingredients:

• Oreos


• Cake pop sticks


• Vanilla almond bark for the coating


• Orange Tic-Tacs cut in half for the nose


• Black frosting for the eyes and mouth

1.Insert the cake pop sticks into the white filling of the Oreo.

2. Melt the vanilla almond bark according to the instructions on the package. Hold the cookie stick over the pot and use a spoon to coat the cookie with chocolate. Don’t dip the Oreo pop into the vanilla almond bark because it will cause the cookie to fall off the stick!


3. Place your coated cookie pops onto a baking sheet covered in wax paper to dry. Before the chocolate coating fully dries, push the orange Tic-Tac halves into the middle of the cookie. Allow the pops to cool completely before adding the eyes and mouth.

Christmas Pretzel Bites

Christmas Pretzel Bites
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/chelsea-crockett-christmas-pretzel-bites.jpg

I have a few Christmas parties coming up and I have been wracking my brain trying to think of fun activities to do at the parties and fun foods to serve!

Ingredients:

• Circle or square shaped pretzels


• Hershey’s Kisses, whatever kind you want! I prefer the caramel filled ones.


• Red and green M&Ms

Preheat your oven to 250 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and align your pretzels on the sheet. Unwrap your Hersey’s Kisses and place one on each pretzel. Stick the cookie sheet in the oven until the Kiss begins to melt down (about 4 minutes or so).

Have your M&Ms ready for when the pretzels get out of the oven. Remove the pretzels from the oven and gently press an M&M down on each one. The Kisses should flatten out when you press the M&M on it.  Let the pretzel bites cool completely and let them sit in the fridge for about 10 minutes. These are great little snacks for any holiday gathering! Easy to pop in your mouth and super festive.

Enjoy!

XOXO, Chels

Peppermint Candy Ornaments

Peppermint Candy Ornaments
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/chelsea-crockett-peppermint-orniments-.jpg

Peppermints are as festive as it gets. No matter what time of year it is, the smell of peppermints never gets old. It is so refreshing! The ornaments I am going to teach you how to make are totally festive, totally adorable, and totally perfect for any Christmas tree! And, not to mention, totally cheap!

What you need:

• Peppermint candies


• Metal cookie cutters


• Non-stick cooking spray


• Parchment paper

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and then spray the inside of your cookie cutters with cooking spray. Lay the cookie cutters on the cookie sheet and fill them with peppermint candies. Squeeze as many peppermints side by side into the cookie cutters. If you layer the candies on top of each other the ornaments will be thicker and stronger. Bake the sheets for 5 to 10 minutes and keep an eye on the candy as it melts. Remove the tray from the oven when the candies have melted together. Lightly coat a toothpick with cooking spray and use it to make a hole in each group of candies. Let the candy sit inside the cookie cutters until it hardens and cools. Once it has hardened, carefully stretch out the cookie cutter and gently pull the cookie cutter away and pop the candy out.

Now all you have to do is string some ribbon through the holed in ornaments and then decorate with them! They will fill your house with a fresh, peppermint scent and they will also add some color to your tree!

XOXO, Chels
