Made for Easter Egg Hunt Tag. If I could give these more than 5 stars I would. They are so rich and so good (what with 2 cups of brown sugar, a cup of peanut butter, 1 stick of butter and chocolate chips ~ what else can I say???). Fed my son and four of his college friends for dinner tonight and these were for dessert ~ I doubt that there are any left. Thanks for posting this Rose. These will be made often!
