These are awesome, if the chocolate drizzle is too thick just add a tablespoon of canola oil and it will thin out. Easy to make and tasty! Easy to transport too!

I have made this about four times. It was a great success. I have been taking it for treats at my grandchildren's baseball games. The only change I made, was I didn't put the raisins or peanuts in. Still wonderful. Will keep on making them.
