This were wonderful! My family really enjoyed these. It's definitely a keeper! *5/17/09 update* Okay, another recipe I've made mass quantities of. I absolutely love this recipe. Just be sure to keep the bars chilled or they get kind of gross. Also, if you find that your p.b. and condensed milk mixture gets too thick add a little bit of regular milk to thin it out. -
Oh my lucky stars! What this ever good! My kids would sneak pieces of this from the fridge. lol This will be a regular snack/dessert at our house. The only thing I changed was the peanut butter. Instead of creamy I used crunchy. Made for the August 2008 Aussie/NZ recipe swap.

I am the mother of three, wife of one :)
My teenager is the pickiest eater in the world, while my 3 year old will eat anything (though has been acting more and more fickle lately). Our newest addition was born in June 2008, so she doesn't really know much in the way of varieties of food. My husband says "I don't care what you fix, as long as it has meat in it."
I have thousands of recipes saved on my computer from over the years, and am constantly on the lookout for new ones. I also seem to have accumulated hundreds of cookbooks over the years. I am (slowly) trying to go thru all the recipes I have saved and add them to 'Zaar, but this will take some time. I try to only post things that my family (or I) will eat (though I haven't necessarily yet tried every recipe I have posted).
