These wonderfully moist morsels are too tempting to resist. "They melt right in your mouth," comments Charolette Westfall of Houston, Texas. "They're simple to fix, too." Rather than sprinkling the chocolate tips with nuts, you can roll them in red and green jimmies or leave them plain. Either way, Charolette's are real treats!— Charolette Westfall, Houston, Texas
