I was looking for a simple recipe to make something with the things I already had in my house. This was perfect! It didnt call for anything crazy and the result was fantastic. I thought maybe they would be too sweet but they are just right! And soooo simple to make!!

I am addicted to these. Soooooooooooooooooooooo good. I have been looking for a recipe for chewies to try and this is the first one I tried and do not need to look anywhere else. Everyone during the holidays gobbled these up. Very cheap and easy to make.

I made this recipe after visiting Sugardaddies in Columbus, Ohio. They have gourmet bar cookies and I loved the ones with a blondie-type base and salted nuts sprinkled on the top. So I used Paula's Brown Sugar Chewies recipe and added Heath bar chips into the batter, and topped the batter with: salted whole almonds, salted whole cashews and raw chopped pecans. I used a triple batch for a 11" by 17" jelly roll pan. They were incredible!

My friend has been making these for years and I've always asked her to make more! They are so delicious. I wasn't surprised when she let me know it was a Paula Deen recipe!
