The fun of creating your own recipe is being able to name it! My husband loves these, Though messy, they're easy to make.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

After one bite, you'll realize these Ritzy fudge payloas are a treat you didn't know you needed in your life. The caramel and peanuts from a Payday candy melt onto a Ritz cracker for a sweet and salty balance. Then, they're covered in melted coating chocolate. A little messy to eat, the hardest part of this recipe is letting the chocolate harden. Great for a homemade gift for the holidays or a party snack.
