These were good, but I was disappointed in the flavor. They were sweet, but didn't have much flavor. Neither the peanut butter or chocolate flavor stood out at all. But, they did look nice. This just wasn't what I was looking for. Thanks for posting.

EXCELLENT recipe! I made these for a celebration my children weren't going to attend and I gave them a couple to try. My young son cried because he wanted to keep more at home (haha). So, I made them an extra pan for at home before I left. A BIG hit at home, at the party, and at work. Will definitely make again.... and again!

Yummmmmmm! I saw this recipe on the back of a Reese's pb chips bag and had to make them. So glad this recipe is already posted but can't believe no one has rated it yet. These are definitely worth making, your taste buds will thank you! I used an 11x7 pan and had to bake them for 45 minutes. Very moist and chewy, but how can you go wrong with pb and chocolate:)
