The caramel center of these candy bars is a bit too soft. I think I'll try cooking it for a little longer next time.

These candy bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed these candy bars. The caramel and chocolate are so rich and flavorful that they overpower the peanut butter taste.

I love the gooey caramel center of these candy bars. The peanuts add a nice crunch and the chocolate coating is the perfect finishing touch.
