This is a joke, right? Who uses fancy organic ingredients to make a dessert like this one? I used plain old store brand everything and the bars turned out perfect. Thanks for the very basic and tasty sweet recipe, Mary!

I’m sorry to hear that they weren’t a hit for your family. These bars are certainly a sweet treat, with 3 out of 5 ingredients that are clearly going to be very sweet. I’ve never used organic marshmallow cream or tried this recipe with vegan chocolate chips.

When made with traditional marshmallow cream and Hershey bars, these bars have never fallen apart on us. (I don’t know that the ingredients made a difference there, but I also wasn’t in your kitchen with you to see if anything else was different.)

These were extremely and overly sugary. Even my kids would not eat any more of them. I used organic marshmallow cream and enjoy life chocolate chips so I wasted around $19 in ingredients total on these. They also fell apart and did not stay as bars.

I make these cookies bc they are gluten free. I let the dough sit in the fridge overnight to kind of incorporate the sugar. 🙂

These were easy to make and turned out just like the picture. I did use dark chocolate chips, in place of the Hershey bars (I don’t like Hershey chocolate!), But that was purely preference. The only thing that kept it from 5 stars was the peanut butter dough…Sadly, even after being cooked, all I could taste and feel in my mouth was the granulated sugar. Has anyone tried this with powder sugar perhaps? And maybe a little less sugar? I think that because the texture calls specifically for “not natural” peanut butter, that also adds to the sugar content, too. My kids, of course, had no problem eating this recipe as-is!
