I was searching Pinterest for quick and easy Valentine goodies to share with my staff at work. I found several recipes for Cupid Crunch, however, they use a lot of candy and candies like candy corn, we don’t like much in my home, it has a waxy taste.
If you’re like me and don’t like candy corn, this may be the recipe to try. What I like about Cupid Crunch, is you can put whatever you like in it and it’s always great.
It’s simple, easy and is a great gift to give to teachers, co-workers, your mail person or UPS and Fedex delivery person.
