Make Tiger Butter Candy

Thursday, a woman at my work brought a treat to share with everybody. It was called Tiger Butter.

Such a fun name! (I imagine the name would really appeal to little grandsons.)

When I tasted it, I had a hard time eating only one piece.

(Actually, I went back at different times throughout the day to check on the candy . . . Totally for security’s sake.  Totally. It was sitting on a shelf and I didn’t want anything bad to happen to it, you know. And if you believe that, then I would like to introduce you to my friend from Nigeria who needs all of you bank account information . . .)

When she told me how to make the candy, I knew immediately that I had to share it with my readers. It is such a snap to make!  Here’s the recipe.

Tiger Butter

16 ounces white chocolate chips
1/2 creamy peanut butter

Microwave for 1 minute — or until melted. Cover a cookie sheet with waxed paper. Pour the mixture on the paper and spread it out.

Take 1/2 cup of chocolate chips and melt in the microwave.  Drop small spoonfuls of chocolate over the peanut butter mixture.  Swirl the chocolate into the peanut mixture with a knife. Cool until firm.  (It’s best not to cool it in the fridge. Just leave it on the countertop.) Break into pieces.

This candy is something that would be really easy to make with grandchildren.  And, it will be a hit — if your grandchildren like peanut butter and chocolate. (I can’t imagine any grandchildren who don’t.)

And the best thing is that there aren’t lots of pots and pans to clean up and it’s fast, fast, fast to make.

It’s also fast, fast, fast to gobble it all up!  Voice of experience here.
