Fantastic recipe, and super easy! So delicious! I've made them twice now just as directed. Just a word of caution: HIGHLY ADDICTIVE! You can't eat just one! Yes, they are that good!

OMG. This recipe is FABULOUS. I followed the directions exactly and they turned out identical to the picture. I made the bars on Friday, popped them in the freezer, and took them to a potluck on Sunday. It was the perfect make ahead recipe. I think I will make them again ASAP (and freeze) to have on hand. Make sure you score the bars after cooling the chocolate like the directions say - it made cutting a cinch. Everyone at the potluck wanted the recipe and couldn't believe how easy they were. Definiately an awesome recipe.

Absolutely delicious. I made it with a pair of 5 year old twins and they just enjoyed themselves and were very proud of their Reese bars!

Extremely easy and very good. I used chunky peanutbutter for some added texture. Great tip to score bars prior to chilling them, they cut super easy!

This was so simple to make. It was real yummy! It made a lot, so I shared some with my coworkers and was able to freeze any extra. That was real good especially when I was carving choc. later. =)

I really like this one. The flavors are delicious. Its like little peanut butter cups. I think for a variation I will try rolling the peanut butter batter into small balls and dipping them like truffles. I also cut the pieces a little too big...be sure to go small (kind of like cutting fudge).
