Way too much caramel, outside was hard and the middle was too gooey.<\/p>","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"10\/16\/2010 18:26","GUID":"04760194f9cf45e0914eaa994f6810bc","MemberId":2095447,"Rating":2,"ScreenName":"halllakefam","SubmittedDate":"10\/16\/2010 18:26"},{"Comment":"
These are without a doubt the BEST bars I've ever made!! My family begs me to make these all the time and they're always the first thing requested at gatherings. Easy to make but a little time consuming. Definately worth it!!!<\/p>","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"08\/19\/2010 15:25","GUID":"e00cd0590bc44fbbb68ae1eb1fa5b6f9","MemberId":4810526,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"sheinemann","SubmittedDate":"08\/19\/2010 15:25"},{"Comment":"
Super yummy. Will be one of my favorites.<\/p>
Easy to make. Kraft comes out with Caramel<\/p>
Bits that are round and easy to melt. No more unwrapping the caramels.:)<\/p>","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"08\/15\/2010 13:42","GUID":"9B7029C299E828DBA72C688FEFE21AFA","MemberId":172841,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"mauveheart44","SubmittedDate":"08\/15\/2010 13:42"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"07\/14\/2010 14:01","GUID":"7152543FF709E3294D861D34C3089611","MemberId":174050,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"s_pants","SubmittedDate":"07\/14\/2010 14:01"},{"Comment":"
My kids LOVE this recipe. It is too sweet for me, but I make it and bring it to work and it is gone in no time and eveyone asks for the recipe. Very good if you like sweet, cut in small square pieces.<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"07\/06\/2010 11:52","GUID":"07f64df5d7a54f378b9fb80aa22d4bdf","MemberId":5268392,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"peytonfan18","SubmittedDate":"07\/06\/2010 11:52"},{"Comment":"

These were very yummy!! I did change things a bit. I used 1 cup chocolate chips and 1 cup mini chips. I also used toffee bits instead of the candy bar.<\/p>","CommentId":15,"DateRated":"05\/11\/2010 12:31","GUID":"ed815663c0dc4d9b82857c23bb1fa264","MemberId":4181304,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"nebwingnut","SubmittedDate":"05\/11\/2010 12:31"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":16,"DateRated":"12\/25\/2009 15:55","GUID":"e65d44e951fe44229642e151ca2566a5","MemberId":1169752,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"kkayou","SubmittedDate":"12\/25\/2009 15:55"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":17,"DateRated":"11\/12\/2009 15:39","GUID":"9E1787501507430080455321DA0016D1","MemberId":4254261,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"CrystalZ84","SubmittedDate":"11\/12\/2009 15:39"},{"Comment":"
