    Mom and I make a recipe very similar to this every single year at Christmas, but we use heavy cream and nuts. I'll have to post her recipe too sometime. God, this sounds good!!

    Well, boy, am I surprised! I just posted a recipe very similar to this called Caramel Kisses. I really didn't think anybody else knew one like it. My Granny used to make them.
