OK Dads, If you want to look like a rock star to your kids, take over the kitchen for about 10 min and make these chocolate candies. 

This may be the simplest candy recipe known to man. My mother made these for me from time to time when I was a kid. She kindly made a copy of the recipe several years ago and gave it to me. It's time to share.

With a few simple ingredients and about 10 min you will be the best candy maker EVER.

Let your kid sit on the counter for added effect.
