Great treat!! Savory, sweet, and crunchy!!!! I could not find my usual good quality white chocolate so I used 3 (3.52 oz) white chocolate Toblerone bars and cut the recipe in half. Swiss Toblerone have clean ingredients of just pure chocolate and they have honey and almond nougat too so it made the treats even better! I was glad I didn't find my regular white chocolate because melted Toblerone bars are awesome with this!! Love this recipe, thanks for posting!!!

I became worried after mixing all the ingredients together because it didn't look like there was enough white chocolate to hold everything together. It turned out great! Everyone loved it. I bet cashews or pistachios would be great too.

Made this with two large (400 gram) white chocolate Toblerone bars ... a little more chocolate than the recipe called for but yum, sooo good!!

A winner of a recipe -- deliciously salty and sweet. Can't wait to serve these at my Thanksgiving dessert table. Incredibly easy to make with wonderful results. Will definitely be making these again and again! Made for Fall PAC, 2012.
