    Peanut butter and butterscotch chips yummy! However, the calories are incorrect. The ingredients show only 1 cup Kashi cereal being used. Going to make these for tomorrow! - 4/19/14

    Hey guys my wife and I have been married for 15 years. For over five years I have been dealing with jealousy issues because of flirting and her having emotional type affairs with other men.

    I switched to using the Reese's peanut butter chips instead of the butterscotch ones because I found the butterscotch made them too sweet and not as much peanut butter flavor. - 4/21/14

    I was looking for something extra to have on the table for Easter and this is perfect! I made some this morning to have ready and they are delicious. I'll have to let my family eat them, they are very tempting with all of the calories! - 4/19/14
