KYTX CBS 19 video
More than 100 volunteers gathered at the Tyler Area Chamber of Commerce building Tuesday morning to start the three-day membership drive, with a goal of recruiting 700 new members to join the organization.
Pretzel Ghosts
INGREDIENTS
1 bag Snyder's pretzel rods
1 bag Wilton white candy melts
McCormick's black food coloring
DIRECTIONS
Place the melts in a deep bowl and microwave according to package directions. Remove a tablespoon of melted candy to a small bowl. Add several drops of the black food coloring and stir to combine. Dip the pretzel rods in the melted white candy and turn clockwise as you pull the pretzel out of the candy. This will create a flowy, sheet like effect down the pretzel. Stand upright in a glass while the candy dries. With the black candy form small balls for the eyes and big rounds or triangles for the mouth. Press the eyes and mouth into the white candy before it dries. Let the pretzels set in the refrigerator before serving.
