Making AND Playing With Chocolate Gelt at Home

Hanukkah celebrates the rededication of the Temple, and our faith and the story of the oil that lights our menorahs is well known. But what is less well known is the story of the coins the Maccabees made afterwards, and understanding the history and reason we play Dreidels with chocolate gelt will deepen the meaning of the season. Make and play with your own chocolate gelt this year - if you don't eat all of your coins before the game begins!
