Total decadence in convenient candy/snack form

by Marisa McClellan, Posted Jan 18th 2008 @ 2:07PM

Elizabeth of Foodaphilia, creator of the very impressive and drool-worthy Elvis cake, is at it again. Inspired to head to the kitchen by a recipe Anna posted last February on Cookie Madness, she whipped up a batch of Frito Candy. I am intrigued by this recipe as it mixes savory and sweet together in a totally appealing way (I also like the fact that it pulls peanut butter into the mix).

I love that the star of this recipe is a cup of Fritos. After having listened to the Kitchen Sisters podcast about the birth of the Frito, I think that the man who invented the Frito would approve of this recipe, as he was a big proponent of using his product in recipes and new food creations.

If you decide to whip this recipe up over the weekend, make sure to post a picture of it to our Flickr group so we can see the results!
