White Trash?

[Kae]

those those who make white trash how long does it stay fresh? I have to make about 5 batches to put in tins for work. I was thinking about doing it this week end do you think it would stay ok until christmas?

Thanks Kae

Ok I found it!!

White Trash

1# Almond Bark-White
3 cups each Rice Chex, Corn Chex, Cheerios
2 cups each Dry roasted Peanuts & Pretzels
1 12 oz package M & M's I use the Christmas ones

Mix the dry stuff in a big bowl-I use my really big tupperware one

In the Mircowave melt the White bark-do not get any water near it or it will harden- I add about a Tablespoon of Crisco it helps make it smooth. Watch it so it does not burn. I also break the bark up before I put it in the Mircowave. I do this in 30 to 1 min at a time.

Pour over the dry stuff. I spray my hands pam, again make sure your hand are dry. And I use a rubber spoon. Mix it up. Spread out on wax paper let dry break the big stuff in to smaller clumps.

That's it. I great mix of sweet & salty.

I think it must be a Southern thing, 'cause I knew exactly what it was when I saw the thread title. In fact, my mom just asked me yesterday for the recipe for this stuff, as we made some last Christmas and it was just soooo good! Sometimes it's hard to find the almond bark though, it seems the stores sell out of it quickly. I saw it at Dollar General today for $1.50 a pkg.

I am southern and had never heard about it: sounds yummy!

I also was laughing at the title and was wondering who the offender was.

 

[stemikger]

That sounds awesome. Have you ever made dirt. That's good too.

I make this every year and it's eaten so fast that I'm not sure how long it would keep. I have been using the while chocolate chips instead of almond bark. I usually get them at WalMart grocery.

Can I just use white chocolate melts (I make candy with them) and Sam's had a chex mix with pretzels and melba toast. Do you think that will work as well?

Hi How much bark do yous use? The Dec/Jan of Family Fun, they have Mint Bark to make. How would that taste?

 

[MazdaUK]

I love these boards - they throw up questions I'd never dreamed of

What is bark?

 

[sweet maxine]

MazdaUK, "bark" is another name for lg. squares of melting chocolate or vanilla. It comes in a 20 oz. package that is divided into about 12 squares. They are easily broken off from the whole, and can be melted in a bowl in the microwave for dipping. It might be called other things elsewhere, but all I've seen around here is the almond "bark".


DisneyOntario, the mint mix sounds interesting. I think it sounds good as long as you use something with a chocolate flavor in the mix it's covering. I'll have to find my Family Fun issue to see what's in the recipe. I think what makes the flavor so good to me is the mix of saltiness from the nuts and pretzels along with the sweetness of the dipping bark. I know I've found strawberry bark in the store here. Haven't tried it yet, but it looks interesting.
