Laura says
I want to them in dark chocolate. Any recommendations on what to use for dipping?
Stephanie Brubaker says
You can use any dark chocolate you like, if it seems to thick once melted, just add a tsp or so of coconut oil to thin it out. Enjoy!
emma francis says
so good Ihad to stumble them
Brian says
So are there 2 fluff and chocolate spread layers? Step 2 says to mix them and pour it over the first layer. But then step 3 says to do it again. Do you need double those ingredients or just split them in half?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Sorry for the confusion, Brian. Just one fluff layer and one caramel layer, surrounded by chocolate 🙂 Hope you enjoy them!
Carolyn says
This candy is Awesome and very easy to make! Thanks so much for the recipe.
Kim Anderson says

serena says
Milky ways dont contain caramel…
Sara says
Umm, YES they do… Lol
Sarah says
Umm no they dont chocolate coated nougat is all a milky way is. Id laugh but i didnt get it wrong
Jamie says
Yeah you’re thinking of 3 muskateers. Milky Way does indeed have caramel.
Ann says
Sorry, you’re wrong. 3 musketeers do not have Carmel. You should probably check your facts before you shame someone
Rick says
Milky ways DO have carmel and 3 muskateers DO NOT! I just bought one of each to see myself!
kayla says
wow are you ever dumb
AussieChoc. says
American Milky Ways have caramel, whereas in the UK and Australia a Milky way is a soft nougat bar covered in milk chocolate.
I believe this is where the disagrement is stemming from
Ally says
The Milky Way bar is a chocolate-covered confectionary bar manufactured and distributed by the Mars confectionery company. Introduced in 1923, the Milky Way bar’s American version is made of chocolate-malt nougat topped with caramel and covered with milk chocolate, similar to the Mars bar sold outside of the U.S.
Juli says
Yes they do. https://goo.gl/images/jiHz6z You should have laughed.
Stefanie says
Just go watch the Unwrapped episode with Mark Summers and you will see that it does have caramel in the recipe. And furthermore, in 1997 they updated the recipe of the Milky Way and added more carmel.
K Oler says
Milky Ways DO contain caramel. It’s Three Musketeers that do not contain caramel.
Me says
OH MY GOD! Just look at the package….. It’s a caramel smile…..
Elle says
Milky Way is my favorite bar because of the Carmel.
Brianne @ Cupcakes & Kale Chips says

The Mom Chef ~ Taking on Magazines One Recipe at a Time says
I don’t like chocolate (at all), but I have a weakness for caramel so am willing to overlook the stuff that surrounds it, especially in Milky Ways. That looks fantastic.
Heather @ French Press says
you really are queen of the candy bar…lucky kiddos you have
