  1. ya, I don't know where you got this "recipe" from, and I'm not trying to be mean- but my mom and I have been making these since I can remember (at Least since early '80s).... and we don't waste the broken ones by using them as a salty snack.
     
  2. I don't know how much I made, but it was about a half bag of Bugles. A lot of the Bugles were closed too much at the opening to get any peanut butter in them. Keep that in mind, if you want to make a lot; you will need more than one bag of Bugles. These tasted good and my kids really enjoyed dipping them in chocolate and then eating them when they were ready. Their friends really liked them as well. I used my Pampered Chef's Easy Accent Decorator to pipe in the peanut butter. This made it easy (easier than a plastic food bag in my opinion), and there wasn't any waste of peanut butter either. I will probably make these again, but not often as it does take too much time trying to find the Bugles with large openings and filling them with peanut butter. Thanks for another different recipe.
     
  3. I can't make these anymore because I eat them all! They are that good.
     
  4. Can not believe I didn't rate these!!! I am browsing through my cookbooks looking for something to make with the kids and realized I have never rated these! We have made these the past two Christmas' and everyone loved them. So easy and tasty! We usually dip half into sprinkles for a colorful addition.
     
  5. This is a tasty treat! I dipped them in a blend of semi sweet and milk chocolate- and even threw in a few vanilla chips (pretty much cleaning out my stash of leftover chips).
