This tastes similar to a snickers bar (only better). We used dove chocolates(1/2 dark, 1/2 milk) and the candy was so insanely good that I immediately gave most of it away so I would not eat the whole pan. Highly recommended for a copy cat candy bar.

An old friend of mine used to make these candies. They a are so yummy and rich. They actually remind me more of Snickers® than any other candy bar. They are best stored in the fridge as well if it's warm in the home.
