Although I try not to change recipes substantially, especially when first making them, I did cut the brown sugar in half in both the filling & the topping in this recipe! Also crushed rather than chopped the brittle! The final product was shared at a potluck & thoroughly enjoyed by all who sampled it! Thanks for posting the recipe!
