So...I reeeally like Chocolate covered Sunflower seeds! I am not sure how well known these little rubies are...
so if you have heard of them or eaten them,
I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO COMMENT ABOUT IT AT THE END!
Curious to know who has heard of them.
I first had them at a friend of mines, sisters wedding reception here in UTAH. And it was soo cute and colorful. They had ordered them all in different colors and the were separated by color in different jars as part of their wedding favors (fill your bags with candy idea). It was super cute and these were surprisingly really good. This was her favorite candy so this is how they chose to incorporate it and add their wedding colors (to make it more personalized). So, ever since then...like in 2007 or 08...I thought that you had to order them online...but a couple years ago I saw them at Winco Foods in the bulk section. and then also in places like Joann's Fabrics and Bed Bath and Beyond in the checkout area! so keep a look out.
ALSO, IF YOU HAVE SEEN THEM ELSEWHERE PLEASE TELL ME!
I recently had the idea to use the multi colored kind (bulk at winco) into a yummy treat, because its rainbow, of course. And St. Patty's Day is just around the corner!!
So I combined an all time favorite, rice crispy treats, with some healthy coconut oil to substitute for the butter make it a tad bit healthier ;), a hint of lemon...and then tossed these colorful choc. covered seeds in the mix.
They are pretty yum if ya ask me, but of course they are or I wouldn't have posted them, right? ;)
Just a little hint of lemon really gives it something special :D
this is what you need + lemon extract! (forgot to put that in the photo!)
Surprise inside! pictures
pinch of each color into the center
hide all pieces and form a tight ball
Cut down the middle with sharp knife...put one of each color on one half and smash other half back on top to put it back together
Hope you have fun Tasting the
rainbow!
