For years, I have made "peanut brittle" for my friends and family for Christmas. If I don't have it on hand, they are not afraid to ask for it. This year, I've taken your "Toffee Butter Crunch" and switched it out for my peanut brittle. They all noticed, but I got no complaints. Thanks for the change. (I did have the peanut brittle made as a back-up, just in case) :)
