ReplyDeleteBetsy, thanks to you, since I found your blog....my recipe box is growing. I love the new recipes you share, and I've tried most of them.

Again, you have displayed them so beautifully, I want to reach in the screen and take one!!
We will enjoy!

ReplyDeleteI agree with Nancy. Wowzers!
ReplyDeleteSubby ~ it's always a good thing, right? Need to go check out those choc chips ones! :)..that is if you left any!
ReplyDeleteThe fact that you can actually see the peanut butter cups on the top are a testimony to how good they must be. My hubby wouldn't be able to eat them because of his gout, and he's had a flare-up recently. My kids, on the other hand, I'd have to hide them from. But they have noses, so unless I cut them off, they'd know.
ReplyDeleteKayren ~ heehee...just double the recipe. :)
ReplyDeleteBetsy, Why is it that every time I retake the vow to restart the diet I turn to My Five Men and you have a recipe for something scrumptious and chocolatey. You temptress you.
