Changes:
Used 1 cup milk chocolate chocolate chips instead of candy bars. Made into regular cup cake size chocolates- made 18.
* Made a 2nd time this week with just milk chocolate- no semi sweet- was even better!*

Review:
Rating 8- *8 1/2 2nd time.* Great flavor. Easy to make. Set up quick. No fussy chocolate tempering- just the good ol' microwave!! Awesome activity to do with kids!

Next Time:
Maybe do 1 1/2 original PB mix.
