Seven layers of pure delight!  I had no idea what to call these bars … 7 layers?? Yep, that will do, with the added Caramel and Chocolate …

But first : as I mentioned in a previous post I have an adorable new 10 week old, Jack Russel puppy. Uhm, and yes, I do think he has a bit of something else in his genes.

He is as cute and lovable as can be and already has the whole family wrapped around his .. well, paw !

MEET JOE, EVERYONE

Joe - Jack Russel x puppy

I wanted something sweet and gooey and thought I will find something on Pinterest. For once, I could not find a single thing on any of my boards which I really craved for.

After spending another hour or so, looking at the new stuff rolling in on the Pinterest site, I knew I will not find something there.

Have you ever had a craving for a specific, shall we say .. ingredients musts, but no recipe and never had something quite like it at  the candy bars?
