These bars are wonderful. I have made them three times now for holiday parties and I have gotten great comments from everyone. And there is no way to miss up the recipe.

This was so good!! I made this for a cookie exchange. I thought i would do something just a bit different than everyone else. They turned out great and everyone loved them! I will definitly be putting this in my recipe box and will make again!! (Next time I might try the mini marshmallows rather than the creme. I found that the cream was a little hard to get on the top.)

I have baked these on several occasions over the last few months and they fly off the pan every time! They are delicious!

These are so yummy, but very time consuming to perpare. Several different steps.

These are one of my most favorite recipes I have tried from kraft foods! I can't say enough great things about them... chewy, gooey, perfect combination of sweet things all in one! The girls I work with could not believe how fabulous they were either! Try them and see for yourself! A chocoholics dream!

My kids loved this recipe. I took it to work and they were the first thing gone! My husband doesn't care for peanut butter so I made it without and put a layer of scattered chocolate chips in place of the peanut butter and it was just as big of a hit.

I made this recipe as it was given. It got great reviews and I even won a prize for the best dessert at a Christmas Party. It was delicious, very rich and tasty. Kind of messy for presenting though.

I completely altered this recipe, I used marble cake mix instead of devils food, caramel for topping ice cream instead of peanut butter, miniature marshmallows instead of marshmallow cream, pecans instead of peanuts, and semi sweet chocolate chips instead of chocolate squares. This simplified the spreading, and was absolutely divine. Very rich, but my family raved. Debbie
