These tasted great!!! I had trouble getting the pb mixture to spread evenly so I just mixed everthing together in the pan and flattened it back out; threw on the chocolate and popped it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Turned out great!! This recipe is a keeper.

Love these!! I cheated and used a bag of milk chocolate chips. Popped it all in the oven for a few minutes. I took these to work and they were gone gone gone!

Great googley-moogley! I made these for a potluck and boy were they good! Everyone loved that sweet/salty combo. It was so quick and easy to put together too. Thanks!

Amazingly easy to make. I will try these again with only a drizzling of chocolate. Is there anyway to keep them crisp? Thanks!

These are a HUGE favorite with my crowd. I was asked to include them in a dessert buffet that I catered for a wedding -- but how to make them more attractive?? I used two bags of Fritos scoops and picked out the nicely shaped ones -- I placed them rounded side down on two wax-paper covered jelly roll pans -- put the rest of the "not so perfect ones" on a third covered sheet. Bring the sugar/corn syrup to a full roiling boil but then immediately remove from the heat and add the peanut butter and stir til smooth -- drizzle over the scoops, filling each little 'cup'. Move fairly quickly, so the caramel doesn't set up. Pour the rest of the mixture over the "not so pretty" pan. Let them cool. Melt 6 oz chocolate chips in a baggie - snip a corner and drizzle over the perfect chips. You will need some more chocolate, if you want to put chocolate on the "not so perfect" pan. Chill (fridge or freezer) for a few minutes and they will snap apart. The perfect scoops will be quite attractive and the "not so perfect" pan becomes the cook's treat. The bride was ALMOST sorry she had a "regular" wedding cake -- "Coulda just gone with the Fruckies" ;-)

My kids didn't have any money for my birthday present, so I suggested they make dinner and dessert. I printed out this recipe (among others) for them to choose from and they chose the fruckies. They were an amazingly tasty blend of salty and sweet. We loved them (and had a lot of fun trying to say the title ten times fast)!

Wonderful combination of sweet and salty. No one could figure out what they were made of! I made the recipe just as written except I had to pop them in the oven to completely melt the chocolate.

Excellent!!! I did also use a Silpat like Mean Chef and instead of melting the chocolate over the layer I put it over my warming unit on my oven and added around a third of a bar of PARRAFIN WAX and melted it with the chocolate, I use parrafin when I make peanut butter balls and it works great. My family could not get enough of these my Dh thought they tasted like some candy bar he's had before perhaps 100 Grand, or Whatchamacallit

WOW, are these ever good!!! We loved the salty/sweet combination. I think the peanut butter mixture was too thick (making it hard to break them part.) I think the next time, I will use the same amount of chocolate, but I will experiment by using less of the peanut butter mixture and just kind of "drizzle" it over the Fritos rather than spread it all over. Wonderful treat that I can't wait to make these again. Thanks for sharing, Jaqueline30.

Bizzarely delicious! If you can get your head around combining Fritos. pb. and chocolate, you are in for a terrific surprise! I, too, had to put these in a warm oven to melt the chocolate. Really fabulous and addicitive!

Fritos with gooey peanut butter and lots of thick chocolate. The more I eat, the more I like them! Very rich and not too pretty but a wonderful treat. Pan should be well greased. Like the others, I put it under the broiler for a couple of minutes to soften the chocolate. Thanks Jacqueline30!

Super easy to make!!! Delicious!!! Fellow ladies, you will love these!!! :) and putting them under the broiler for a couple of secs does help in spreading the chocolate. Thanks a million for this gem of a recipe. :)

These were different. The "cookies" weren't the prettiest I've made but they did satisfy my sweet/salty craving. I didn't have to use all eleven candy bars as 10 bars pretty much covered the surface of the pan. The chocolate didn't melt completely so I put it in the oven for a little while in order to make the chocolate spreadable. Thank you for the recipe.

Oh My Freakin' God were these awesome! This is my new PMS food...I followed Mean's advice & popped the tray in the oven for a few minutes to melt the chocolate & it worked like a dream. I also added a large handful of walnuts & that really made it for me (I love nuts). This was very easy to make & I had all ingredients on hand.

Made these for a potluck and everyone enjoyed them. I used chocolate chips and needed to put this in the oven for a few minutes to melt the chocolate. These were not easy to break apart since the peanut butter layer doesn't really harden. It was more like bend them them apart. I concur with another reviewer who stated that these were not terribly attractive (but got eaten nonetheless). I thought the peanut butter layer was "too heavy" and next time might just opt for chocolate and fritos.

You need to rename this recipe to Fabulous Funky Frito Fruckies! They were really good. Very easy to make and even easier to eat! Great recipe!

A very good, and, as everyone else says, very addictive treat. I had to stick my pan in the oven for a bit to melt the chocolate. Otherwise, no problems...great treat.

this was really easy to make and very tasty. i wish i would have greased the pan a lot more as they were "stuck" in the pan until the house warmed up. oh, and i used pam spray, next time i'll use a silpat like mean chef did,

Warning. This is highly addictive stuff. It's rich, salty, crunchy and sweet. A dieter's nightmare. LOL Though the fritos may sound odd they work really well in this. A definite crowd pleaser. Thanks J30!
