Super yummy! I split the recipe between 2 Hefty EZ Foil loaf pans (8x3.375x2) and lined w/parchment paper. The whole thing came out easily and then I cut into bars. They are very close to tasting like a Snickers, but I think they taste much better and more decadent. There is some effort involved, but as everyone else stated, it's worth it!

Ridiculously good candy bars! Everything came together wonderfully. I did have to add a tad more evaporated milk to the mallow creme mixture to get it to pour on and spread nicely, but other than that, perfect!! Will be making these many, many times for sure! Thanks so much!!

Warning: It takes major self-control to not eat the entire batch of these Snickers, one yummalicious bite at a time. Be sure to have friends and family present to help you enjoy them! Hint: Their bottom layer stuck to my cake pan, so next time I plan on lining it with Reynold's Release non-stick aluminum foil. Then once the Snickers are set up, it's simply a matter of inverting the entire panful onto a cutting board and peeling up the foil.
