Today is "National Chocolate Covered Raisin Day"

I personally do not like them, but my husband LOVES them!

Try this recipe!

CHOCOLATE COVERED RAISINS

 1 (6 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet chocolate morsels

1/4 c. dark corn syrup
2 tbsp. powdered sugar
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar, vanilla and raisins. Drop by half teaspoons onto waxed paper; chill. Store in refrigerator. Yield: about 5 1/2 dozen.
