the story behind the bark

In honor of of our cookbook,12 Days of Christmas with Six Sisters? Stuff, we hosted a recipe contest to find YOUR favorite holiday recipes.

After a lot of baking, cooking and sampling we have chosen 12 of our reader’s favorite recipes. Thanks to everyone who participated

Today we are featuring the Christmas Bark Recipe from Maria Loving. Maria has been making this recipe for at least 10 years.

Mariamakes gift bags filled with the bark for teachers, co-workers and friends at Christmas, and she says once they taste it, they can’t get enough.

She makes almost 18 batches each year just to meet the demands.

what could I use instead of saltine crackers?

This recipe is best with saltine crackers, however, if you don’t have any on hand, or don’t like saltine crackers, you can substitute them.

I have made this recipe, multiple times using graham crackers. It is just as delicious, if not more. It is also just as easy to make and full of delicious and sweet flavor.

The saltines give it a little sweet and salty taste, but the graham crackers just make it that much sweeter. Both are delicious, and would work just the same.

what could i sprinkle on it, if i don’t like nuts?

I love a good garnish on my desserts. They add just a small hint of taste or texture to dessert, as well as a better presentation.

I love making this with candy cane bits, nuts, Oreo bits, gingersnap crumbles, white chocolate drizzle, or even saltine cracker crumbles for a little extra taste of savory.
