I am convinced that anything homemade tastes better than anything store-bought. Despite this belief I have, it’s never occurred to me that I could make a candy bar right here at home. With a few simple ingredients, anyone can! These Congo Bars put marshmallow treats to shame, they basically include every tasty ingredient you’d want in a perfect candy bar: buttery macadamia nuts, sweet chocolate, a little bit of a cookie crust, and even some coconut thrown in for fun. Aside from being absolutely scrumptious, they also have an amazing texture…and, of course, the added caramel sauce on top gives them the stickiness they need to be considered an officially delicious candy bar. After you try these, I guarantee you’ll never again consider giving in to your chocolate craving by purchasing one of those dinky little bars at the cash register; you’ll actually have the patience to wait and make these yourself at home :). I brought them into the office yesterday and everyone loved them!
