These didn't look as bad as I expected after readign previous reviews. I think the cornflakes sticking out of the chocolate "goo" may be what others found unappetizing. I did go ahead and sprinkle more chocolate chips and crushed peanuts on top and I ran it back into the microwave briefly so the chips woudl melt a little bit. Really, it would have been OK (especialyl for kids) as written. This one will keep the dentists in business.
