Thanks for this recipe, my boyfriend will love that I can make Payday bars for him at home, he got a bit obsessed last time we were in the states. Can I check the sizes of the jars of peanuts, can of condensed milk, and package of peanut butter chips you use? I’m from the UK so may have different standard sizes. Ounces or grams will be fine.
