I have not made these yet I have a question if I use a glass pan do I have To adjust the oven temperature? if so how much?

Hi there! If you would like to make this recipe in a glass pan, adjust the oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Be sure to check the recipe five minutes before your timer is up to ensure that it is baking/baked properly. Additionally, we recommend lightly spraying your glass dish with a non-stick baking spray. Enjoy!

Thank you cindywilsey for your comment! My Gma had a similar recipe as well, so it's really fun to hear your story. Greatly appreciated!

I am rating this recipe without making it and the reason why is a bit odd Back in the s my grandmother copied this recipe down while listening to the daily cooking show on her favorite radio station She loved Heath candy bars but they were difficult for her to enjoy with her dentures She listened to Joyce the program host give this recipe and thought she might be able to enjoy Heath candy bars once again There are two differences between this recipe the old one When Gran copied it down pudding in the mix was not common so it just said yellow cake mix And there were no bagged brickle bit available so she had to crush enough Heath candy bars to make cups These became a lunch time favorite with my grandfather and there was massive pouting to happen if my sisters I were at their home brickleRead More bars were off limits because they were Grand's lunch box Everyone in the family has a copy of that original recipe in gran's handwriting Forty-plus years later it is still a lunch time favorite

Could you use a german chocolate cake mix?

Yes, you can absolutely use German chocolate cake mix. Enjoy!

I just made these and as Mr. Food says: OH SO GOOD!!! easy to make also.

Did you leave them in for longer than 25 min? I just made them and they seem a little too gooey. Is there some way to test for doneness?

Hello! You can try cooking your Brickle Bars for 5-8 minutes longer, or until center is formed (by testing with a toothpick). Enjoy!

They are also called English toffie chips made by Heath and found by the chocolate chips in your grocery store

That would be crushed Heath bars, you find them with chocolate chips. Mr. Food can't name the brand because of legal issues.
