Jo’s Chocolate-Covered Graham Crackers
I know it’s Easter and we’re supposed to be eating marshmallow Peeps but instead, I’m treating myself to another sweet thing: Jo’s chocolate-covered graham crackers. Jo’s been making them since the forties, in your choice of dark or milk chocolate. I buy a mixed box, because Tom likes dark and I like milk The dark are gone in sixty seconds, while I tend to hoard the milk, saving them for special occasions, like Easter, when, what with the girls gone to college and my aversion to marshmallow sprayed with yellow dye #6, I see no good reason to purchase Peeps.
I’m telling you, order some of these babies now, and you’ll kiss those Peeps goodbye.

Oh, Jessica my Jessica. How dare you debase the humble Peep®? I truly adore them, though I’m one of those weirdos who rip open the cellophane as soon as I bring them home and leave them to sit for a couple weeks before enjoying them. Mmmm, chewy and toothsome treats. And if the Just Born Peeps® don’t excite you, you should at least try my homemade ones. Those are good right away — no need to stale-ize them.
That said, Jo’s crackers look delicious. Kinda like Keebler Deluxe Grahams®, but better!
