My favorite holiday candy is this stuff we call "white trash candy". I am not really sure why we call it that...but we make it every year.

It's basically rice crispies, captain crunch, pretzels, and peanuts covered in melted almond bark (white chocolate), and spread out thin while it cools so it breaks up into little pieces. It's sooooooo good!
