Recipe For Deliciious Homemade Candy; Mint Chocolate Truffles
Making candy can be a really fun activity. And the results are so worth the effort. Whether for a special occasion or just for the pleasure of it, turning out your own candy is very rewarding. Here is a great recipe for chocolate candy--my favorite! These delicious Mint Chocolate Truffles are from a recipe I found years ago in a Cooking Light magazine.
MINT CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES
1/3 cup semisweet mint-chocolate chips
4-oz Neufchatel cheese, softened
16-oz pkg powdered sugar, sifted
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
2 tbsp semisweet mint-chocolate chips
Place the 1/3 cup mint-chocolate chips in a microwave safe medium to large bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute or until the chips are almost melted. Stir until smooth. Set aside to cool.
When chocolate is cooled, add the Neufchatel cheese and beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until smooth. Add the powdered sugar to the mixture and beat until well blended. Press the mixture into a 6-inch square on heavy-duty plastic wrap and cover with additional plastic wrap. Chill at least one hour. Remove the top sheet of plastic wrap and cut truffle into 48 squares. Roll each square into a small ball and place on waxed paper. Roll half the balls in the unsweetened cocoa and the other half in the powdered sugar. Place the 2 tablespoons of the mint-chocolate chips into a heavy zip-top plastic bag. Microwave on high 1 minute or until the chips are softened. Knead the bag until the chips are smooth. Make a tiny snip in one bottom corner of the bag. Drizzle chocolate over the balls that have been rolled in cocoa. Serve at room temperature.
Note: I got this recipe from a 1999 Cooking Light magazine.
Enjoy!

Need info on value of silver coins?
I have about $300 in silver coins that i found after my parents died. They separated them into quarter/dime/nickels and had them all put into coin rolls. I remember when they stopped making them into pure silver, (around 1960's) that my parents saved all they could find. I will be dividing the total between my family equally.
Is there a site we can find if any of these coins are worth a lot?
Is there someplace that just buys bulk for a set price?
ie; $100 for $200?
I know that the condition, ie mint or avg would change the value, but what else should I know or look for.
Also, I know that certain years maybe worth more than others. If for instance, they say, years 1950 to 1953 have little value, but years 1959 to 1962 are more valuable, would save time and look for specific years.
Or, stated differently, what "scams" or "tricks" that we can fall prey to or avoid?
Here is a good website to start with:
