I made these and could not get over the identical taste. This recipe makes about 110 pieces. A must have…must make recipe!! Fannie Mae is a Midwest northern household name. I am sure people will be pleased.

I made these…..even went to 245degrees because I wanted to ensure I would be able to wrap them individually. They were very difficult to cut and stringy when I tried to pull them apart. I did omit the nuts…..so my question is this: Is it supposed to be a very soft caramel? If so then the texture stands to reason. With the nuts it would stand up a litle better. Thanks…….
you probably didn’t let them cool long enough. I make these every year, with the nut, and they are never stringy. And maybe you didn’t cut the pieces all of they way down.
