Really great! I used chopped peanuts instead of pecans. I also heated my caramel and chocolate in a microwave. Tastes just like a Twix bar! Oh, don't use waxed paper istead of foil like I did... the greased waxed paper stuck to the caramel and we had to make another batch. The foil worked great. -

AND that is the end of this. If the phone doesn't ring? It's me.
If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer.
I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story.
