We made these as part of our Christmas treats for neighbors. Good to fill the bottom of a larger size tin. I wasn't expecting to LOVE them as much as I did. YUM! Thanks!

These were great. Easy to make and quick. I thought that the chocolate topping was a little to much in quantity, so I think I will use a little less next time (2 - 12 ounce bags instead of 16 ounce bags) Great recipe, Thanks!

****************** My grandmother made these for many years I am 43 years old and I remember eating these as early as 5 years old. They would be gone in a heart beat and it was one desert we all would want to eat before the Holiday Meal... This is a must family tradition.
