When I follow the recipe instructions, I get a (very tasty) 13"x 9" block of candy which I can only try (but never succeed) in cutting into even pieces with an equal amount of each flavor.
Here is where my OCD kicks in and kicks ... well ... you know what.
I took an idea from my experience with cranberry mousse (another really great recipe I use at least twice per year) and created individual candies.
Each cup holds exactly (or nearly exactly) the same of every ingredient as every other cup.
This method took a lot longer to prepare, but yielded about three times the amount the original recipe would have. Additionally, it took less of most of my ingredients than the original recipe called for.
I add my recipe with instructions for those who wish to improve upon perfection.
Go forth..sell a hundred thousand cups...make a million dollars.
Start with a graham cracker crust base:
1-1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs; 1/4 cup sugar; 5 Tbsp soft butter => mash together with your fingers until fully combined
This makes about 72 cups...seriously!
Using a cupcake cup in a muffin tin:
Place 1/2 Tbsp. Graham Cracker Pie Crust (push into the bottom to create a crust)
Drizzle 1/4 tsp. condensed milk (this will use only about 1/4 of the can for all 72)
3 Pecan Halves (scrape the backs with peanut butter)
5 chocolate chips
5 white chocolate chips
1 pinch coconut
2 pinches chopped walnut
5 mini marshmallows
Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes
Enjoy :)
