Reese’s Peanut Butter Bars. That’s what the experts said I should call these two-bite “Change Your Life” treats. Said in my best Steel Magnolias accent, which I happen to be watching tonight. We’ll come back to that.

I have this bag of baking supplies that I hide out of sight in the hall coat closet. My logic is questionable since I (1) hid it, and (2) it’s been discovered. It contains everything from Peanut M&M’s to Hershey’s Kisses to Ferrero Rocher, plus assorted other essentials like chocolate chips, shredded coconut, marshmallows, and Heath toffee bits.

I struggled with what to call these heavenly bars. I kicked around a few ideas. Pretzel Toffee Bars. Chocolate Coconut Layered Love Bars. Magic Bars. Seven Layer Bars. Toothachers Met Their Match Bars. Truth be told…they are a casserole with a little bit of this and a little bit of that. A dessert casserole. I’m not sure anyone would click on a recipe called dessert casserole.

Salted Chocolate Toffee Pretzel Bark.
It was time for a new Adventure in Chocolate. And it was time to {Share the Love} at work. We have been slammed (in the very best way). It was time to deliver a little ‘out of sight’ sweet treat. This afternoon worked out perfectly. Continue reading »

I may be a touch giddy today. It’s 10:55 am on a Thursday and I’m writing this post in my pj’s, gazing into my living room where the tree is a twinkling, the fire is a blazing, the dog is a napping, the coffee is a brewing, and the rain is a pouring down.
