As a child, I have the fondest memories of going to my church in the evening during the holiday season and making all sorts of cookies and candies to pack up into goody boxes for the needy. Those Mennonite ladies sure did know how to bake! We would make everything from fudge to hard candy. I loved helping with this process and working with my hands. These cookie and candy bakes taught me how to be the awesome cook that I am today 🙂
One of the candies that we would make was peanut brittle. I later discovered that this particular candy was put into the boxes because it was stable enough to be transported. We would wrap the brittle in waxed paper and place it in layers into a decorative tin. Then, it’d get placed into a goody box or basket and given away to someone in need. I secretly wished someone would give me a tin of the yummy stuff LOL I always got a little sandwich baggy to take home so that was cool, too.
