Made this great recipe for Christmas & definitely should have made two batches. My family & I devoured it! It was not a soupy mess as stated in other review. Great great great toffee that will be a holiday time must every year!

I made this exactly as listed and to say it turned out horrible would be an understatement. The 'toffee' mixture never hardened but rather soaked into the cereal, making it a soggy, chewy mass. The chocolate chips just added to the soupy mess, which did not improve even after sitting in the fridge overnight. A complete waste of time and money.
