Hello, I want to try your recipe as it is a little different from mine with the addition of the toffee bits. I put these in my Christmas baskets every year. They keep & travel the US very well.
Can these be frozen?
Served these up at my bunco party, they were gone before the dice started to roll.
These are absolutely addictive! My kids loved these!
So good! My family will love these for dessert during the holidays!
