Chocolate . . .

MUST. HAVE. CHOCOLATE.

Here is your chance to torment me: post your favorite recipe which you make when you absolutely have to have a chocolate fix. Mine, of course, is chocolate microwave cake. And you? And do you go for white, milk or dark? (I go for dark, myself.)

I am trying to lose weight. This is not helping. Um . . . lo-cal recipes to enjoy chocolate while not busting the calorie budget are welcome, too.

Alright, before you think this is a weird combination, try it!

No Name Candy (I have no idea what the name is)

1 Package Milk Chocolate chips
1 Package Peanut Butter chips
1 Can Potato Strings (I know, trust me!)

Melt the PB and Chocolate Chips together in a microwave or double boiler (your choice). Pour in the potato strings. Mix. Spread in a 9x9 (or 9x13 depending on how thick you want them). Put in the refrigerator until they harden. Cut into squares and serve.

(Depending on how long they've been in the refrigerator, you'll probably have to let them sit out of the refrigerator before you cut them. It isn't necessary to put them in the fridge for them to set, unless you don't want to wait for them to do it at room temperature.)

These are easy, fast and yummy. Crunchy, sweet and a bit salty with the best flavor combination in the world, peanut butter and chocolate.

Your kids will love them, too.

Hope you don't mind--I'm gacking this recipe because it sounds like crack. I once had chocolate-covered potato chips. OMG so good.

This would be "Better than Sex" candy in my book, I'm thinking.

I don't mind at all! I should have referenced chocolate covered potato chips. My mother in law buys me a can from Neiman-Marcus (yes, we're hoity-toity around here ;) ) every year for Christmas. It is a great flavor combination. And this candy does rock your socks. Be prepared to eat the entire batch.

Hey, that's where I got my chips from too! (We're hoity-toity as well). Now I insist upon my own can every Christmas. There isn't a Neiman's near where I live.
