Very delicious! Easy, easy, to make, too - gotta love that. I used 8oz of peanut butter chips and 8oz of white chocolate for the topping - I was inspired by the Reese's White Chocolate cups, and wasn't dissappointed by the combination - Yum! Thanks, CoffeeB! Made for Veg*n Swap 12.

AWESOME recipe. I made a half a batch which fit perfectly in a 8x8 baking dish. I subbed Splenda for the sugar (which was undetectable in the final product) and used light corn syrup. So easy to make! To decrease the calories a little further, I simply drizzled some chocolate and butterscotch on the top. SO excellent. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

My DH has been smiling from ear to ear since he saw me making this tasty little treat! As soon as he took the first bite he said "10 STARS, Dear!" This is a winner! I love that I don't have to worry about having mashmallows! I did use organic honey in place of the corn syrup, otherwise followed the recipe. Thanks CB! Delicious treat!
