My husband, Chad, and I were in the mood for a sweet treat one night when these little addicting devils were created. We had been cooking for the freezer and lunch box items, plus made a batch of salsa and were in no mood to make a complicated cookie. We wanted something fast and delicious! Chad loves Peanut Butter and Chocolate. It is a real addiction for him, I have to monitor all treats that include the combo. I love you honey, and you're sweet tooth! His all time favorite sweet treat are my Scotch-a-roo bars. You can find the recipe below. So, knowing my husband's love for those bars, I got an idea! Lets make them a quicker way and bite size! So, that is exactly what we did and the result was exactly what we needed that day!
