Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: Easy to make, delicious Cons: I would use unsalted butter for this recipe.

Yes | Rating: 8    Pros: Sweet and easy Cons: a little bitter I enjoyed this candy and will definitely make it again. However, it did have a fairly pronounced bitter taste to it. I didn't use Splenda; I used an off brand, so that may be the reason. but, it is still quite tasty! luckyme502 Guest Registered: March 2003 Location: Too far south for me!

Yes | Rating: 9    Pros: Delicious!!! Cons: Too buttery-will use less butter next time Very good!! I used Nestle's Pre-melted Unsweetened Chocolate & Carb Options peanut butter & these definitely hit the spot! The only problem I had with them is they had a bit of a buttery taste. I will use less butter next time. Highly recommended!!

Yes | Rating: 10    Pros: wonderful Cons: I wanted to eat the entire pan :) I used unsalted butter which was good.
