Crispie Crunch Candy

Why I Love This Recipe
This recipe came from an Aunt of mine over 40 years ago who passed away over 30 years ago. I make this candy every Christmas and think of her. She was a second mom to me when my mom was busy working to raise me as a single mom (my dad had passed away).
I enjoy sharing my recipes so others have as much pleasure as I in making/eating them.
