I followed the recipe exactly, but my caramel didn't turn out right. It was too hard.

These were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.

So easy to make and so yummy! I used dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet and they were perfect.

These clusters were delicious! The caramel was perfectly gooey and the cashews added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making these again.
