I've made this recipe a number of times now. It's incredibly easy to make and my kids love it! I love how customizable it is too! I have tried a bunch of different add-ins. My personal favorite is chocolate chips. But I've also tried chopped peanuts,

Not overly difficult to make. I have made this a few times now and have loved it. I also added in some chopped nuts to mine to add a bit more depth to flavor and texture.
