Hi! I just found this recipe. Wow and yum! I want to make them tonight or tomorrow morning, but all i have is a jat of caramel or a bag of Kraft caramel bits. Do you
Think either one of these would work? Thanks. LOVE your recipes!!
Stephanie Brubaker says
Hi Jen! I think the caramel bits would be a perfect substitute. Enjoy!
Nita says
I dont get where the 3-4 tablespoons of milk or cream go into the recipe? (the first ingredients on the list)
Stephanie Brubaker says
Sorry for the confusion. The milk goes in with the caramel in the filling. Enjoy!

Coffeemom says
could you use a caramel sauce instead of the caramels just wondering
Ang biggley says
I noticed it says to melt the caramels with milk but you don’t mention milk in the filling ingredients. How much milk is used in the filling?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Sorry about that! Add about 3 TBS milk to the caramel. Enjoy!
Terra says
I only have regular butter. Can I substitute that for unsalted. If so, Do I leave out the salt called for in recipe?
Stephanie Brubaker says
Yes! I would add 1/4 tsp salt instead of 1/2 tsp. enjoy! 🙂
