These were sooo yummy and addicting! I brought them to work and everyone kept going back for more! I ended up hiding some so i would have some left over for me! i took another reviewers advice and kept them in the freezer after refrigerating them over night because when they sat out they became sticky. if you are going to put them on a platter, i would spray it with pam first to keep it from sticking. A co-worker suggested dipping the bottoms in chocolate, which would help. Thanks so much, this was so easy and great!

    Made these for my grandchildren to try and they were crazy about them. Had to hide them in the cupboard so they didn't eat too many at once. You know how kids are! They didn't last too long though as the adults were into them too. They were delicious! Thanks for posting Nnreg!

    I made three batches of this sweet and salty treat throughout November and December 2003 and I must have passed this recipe on to a dozen people. This is truly a classic and it will remain in my recipe file forever! I spread the mixture out in a half sheet pan, covered the mixture with a sheet of waxed paper and pressed down the top with another half sheet pan (I use the same method for rice krispie treats). Thank you for this delightful treat!

    I had no problem with the peanuts sticking, I used a flat spoon while they were still warm and just pressed the nuts in. I love paydays and didn't find that these tasted to much like them, but they still had a nice flavor and I loved the texture!
