Peanut Butter M&M Kudos Copycat
Remember Kudos bars?! Oh my gosh, if I got a Kudos in my lunch as a kid I felt like it was the best day ever! I ate it slowly, savoring every little bite, but then suddenly it would all be gone! I remember thinking, “darnit! It’s gone already?!!” But not anymore because we made peanut butter m&m kudos copycat and I cannot wait for you all to make them!
I’ll keep it short as I know you really just want the recipe, but I’m just going to throw it out there that I’m totally crossing my fingers that you like these because I now have a gazillion more ideas for Kudos recipes! Seriously, I am just bursting with ideas and I am going to try to keep it all under control so I don’t overwhelm you.
My only advice about this recipe is please, please place wax paper in the dish before laying down the chocolate and bars so that you can easily remove them. I had a friend over while I was making mine and good golly was it annoying trying to get them out of the pan without the wax paper. I was putting some pretty major muscle into it! Now, hurry off to make these and report back to me!
