I love the combination of the coconuts, chocolate chips, butterscotch morsels and the nuts.
From Cooking LIGHT?!!! These would only be "light" if you cut them into tiny pieces--lol! Actually, this recipe does use less chocolate & butterscotch, coconut & nuts than the recipe I tried so maybe it wouldn't be as sickeningly sweet. Your pictures are making me drool!
ReplyDeleteHi, V! I got this recipe from my sister's Cooking Light cookbook, i must admit i laughed coz it's sort of an oxymoron. Yeah right..light w/ all the sweets in the recipe? But i myself was surprised it wasn't so, so sweet as i expected although i cut it 1 inch by 1/2 inch bars, i guess that helped control the sweetness.
ReplyDeleteThese were good infact i just made another batch today=;) I was thinking of using dulce de leche next time. So, give this another try and use this recipe, see if they are still sweet for you.
omg, yummy, so yummy. am drooooling. will try this one. great job
ReplyDelete!! I've always wondered what these were called! Wonderful! I love these things!
