Holiday treats are a main stay of holiday parties. From sharing treats from a cookie exchange\u00a0to creating your own magical creations it is a special part of the holiday season. When our family gets together it is fun to share our stories over delicious finger food and snacks. With a sea of heavy, sweet desserts this holiday I wanted to create something that combined sweet and salty – my two favourite tastes plus I wanted to include two of my favourites chocolate and peanut butter Hershey’s Chipits<\/a>. \u00a0And, the surprise ingredient in Sweet and Salty Squares? Potato chips! \u00a0\"Sweet<\/p>\n

Sweet and Salty Squares<\/h2>\n

\"Sweet<\/p>\n

Preheat oven 350F

\"sweet<\/p>\n

Your family and guests will love the flavours and you will love that they are so easy they are pretty much fail-proof! Perfect for even the beginner cook and super fun for kids to make. My boys loved crushing the potato chips with a potato masher – although I’m sure I lost some ones to ‘quality control.’<\/p>\n
