Wow this recipe is impressive! I really thought I was going to mess up but it all came together perfectly. Was a great treat for my son and his friend this weekend. The only slight change was that I did not have chocolate covered peanuts and just used dry roasted peanuts in their place at the end. Thanks for sharing a recipe I'll make again and again as a fun snack for my kids and their friends. Made for you win in Tic Tac Toe 2011.
