One of the biggest secrets of the baking world is that some of the most impressive treats are often quite easy to make -- especially when marzipan is involved. That thick and nutty almond paste offers a flavor perfect for Thanksgiving treats, and can easily be molded into any number of holiday-specific nibbles, whether you're an old sculpture pro or feel that you have two left hands.<p><a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/19/thanksgiving-treats-marzipan-bites/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Thanksgiving Treats - Marzipan Bites</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> </p><p><a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/19/thanksgiving-treats-marzipan-bites/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/forward/19243320/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/19/thanksgiving-treats-marzipan-bites/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>almond paste</category><category>AlmondPaste</category><category>marzipan</category><category>marzipan dough</category><category>MarzipanDough</category><category>Thanksgiving</category><category>Thanksgiving candy</category><category>Thanksgiving recipes</category><category>Thanksgiving treats</category><category>ThanksgivingCandy</category><category>ThanksgivingDinner</category><category>ThanksgivingRecipes</category><category>ThanksgivingTreats</category><dc:creator>Monika Bartyzel</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 19 Nov 2009 16:00:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Thanksgiving Treats: Hard Maple Syrup Candy</title><link>http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/11/thanksgiving-treats-hard-maple-syrup-candy/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/11/thanksgiving-treats-hard-maple-syrup-candy/</guid><comments>http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/11/thanksgiving-treats-hard-maple-syrup-candy/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/category/candy/" rel="tag">Candy</a>, <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/category/how-to/" rel="tag">How To</a>, <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/category/thanksgiving/" rel="tag">Thanksgiving</a></p><br />

When we think of Thanksgiving, thoughts usually turn to lavish feasts and a celebration of all things savory. But just as much as this November holiday is a time to come together for massive meals, it's also the perfect time to infuse fall flavor with a dollop of sweetness. Over the next few weeks, I'll be dipping into some fun and easy ways to sweeten up your Thanksgiving, and first up: Hard Maple Syrup Candy.<br />
<br />
Maple syrup is the perfect ingredient for Thanksgiving. The turning maple leaves are a staple of fall decorating, the flavor of the syrup is sweet, natural and divine, and the dark and rich brown hue is perfect for the holiday table.<br />
<br />
Yet most recipes out there insist on turning that syrup into a crystallized Maple Sugar Candy. Of course, those are great nibbles, but simplifying the recipe and letting that syrup harden offers an equally sinful snack that melts on the tongue and is as decorative as it is tasty.<p><a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/11/thanksgiving-treats-hard-maple-syrup-candy/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Thanksgiving Treats: Hard Maple Syrup Candy</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> </p><p><a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/11/thanksgiving-treats-hard-maple-syrup-candy/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/forward/19231260/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/11/11/thanksgiving-treats-hard-maple-syrup-candy/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>hard maple syrup candy</category><category>maple candy</category><category>maple syrup candy</category><category>MapleSyrupCandy</category><category>Thanksgiving</category><category>thanksgiving food</category><category>Thanksgiving treats</category><category>ThanksgivingFood</category><dc:creator>Monika Bartyzel</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 11 Nov 2009 17:00:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Halloween Treats - Witch Fingers</title><link>http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/30/halloween-treats-witch-fingers/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/30/halloween-treats-witch-fingers/</guid><comments>http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/30/halloween-treats-witch-fingers/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/category/how-to/" rel="tag">How To</a>, <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/category/halloween/" rel="tag">Halloween</a>, <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/category/fall/" rel="tag">Fall</a></p><div class="classy">

<!--END HERE--> With sweet <a target="_blank" href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/09/halloween-shaped-brownies-and-blondies/">ghost blondies and brownie bats</a> out of the way, it's time to focus on more ghoulish fare that's not usually found on the Halloween table: Malted Milk Eyeballs. <br />
<br />
Unfortunately, these aren't 100-percent true malted milk balls with that Whoppers-like crunch -- rumor has it those are made in a vacuum to achieve the right texture. We don't have a vacuum, nor are we interested in mass experimentation with sponge toffee to concoct something similar, so we're relying on taste. And that classic flavor is easy to recreate at home. You can buy malted milk powder in most supermarkets.<br />
<br />
Just a bit of that powder and some chocolate (white chocolate in this case, to get the eyeball color), and soon you'll be surrounded by eerie rolling eyeballs just waiting to be devoured.<p><a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/16/halloween-treats-malted-milk-eyeballs/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Halloween Treats - Malted Milk Eyeballs</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> </p><p><a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/16/halloween-treats-malted-milk-eyeballs/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/forward/19196457/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/16/halloween-treats-malted-milk-eyeballs/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>halloween</category><category>Halloween candy</category><category>HalloweenCandy</category><category>malted eyeballs</category><category>malted milk balls</category><category>MaltedEyeballs</category><category>MaltedMilkBalls</category><dc:creator>Monika Bartyzel</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 16 Oct 2009 16:00:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Canada, Cheese and Crosariol - The Globe and Mail in 60 Seconds</title><link>http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/16/canada-cheese-and-crosariol-the-globe-and-mail-in-60-seconds/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/16/canada-cheese-and-crosariol-the-globe-and-mail-in-60-seconds/</guid><comments>http://www.slashfood.com/2009/10/16/canada-cheese-and-crosariol-the-globe-and-mail-in-60-seconds/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.slashfood.com/category/in-sixty-seconds/" rel="tag">In Sixty Seconds</a></p><!--START HERE-->
