These bars are a great make-ahead dessert. I made them the night before and they were still delicious the next day.

I'm going to try making these bars with different types of nuts. I think they would be great with almonds or pecans.

These bars are a great way to use up leftover marshmallows. I always have a bag of marshmallows in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.

These bars were a huge disappointment. They were way too sweet and the peanuts were not salted at all. I followed the recipe exactly, but they still came out gross. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I've made these bars several times now and they're always a hit! They're so easy to make and they're always delicious. I love the combination of the salty peanuts and the sweet marshmallows. The only downside is that they're so addictive, it's hard t

These were so easy to make and they turned out great! I used a different brand of marshmallows than the recipe called for, but they still came out perfect. The only thing I would change is to add a little bit more salt to the topping. Otherwise, thes
