Could you add walnuts to that?

Absolutely Add walnuts.
raquel says
could you add peanut butter
Gene Mason says
In the picture it looks like sweetened condensed milk. But you only say condensed milk. Can you clarify?
Tina says
I would use Sweetened Condensed Milk. Otherwise it would not be sweet enough. At the advertisement it also said "what she does with sweetened milk and chocolate chips in the microwave" Hope it turns out for you!!
Jamie says
Would it be possible to use peanut butter instead?
Ripley says
I made it with peanut butter chips instead of chocolate chips and it came out great.

emme says
Also anyone tried this ? Is it nasty ?
Ripley says
I've made it and it came out great. My husband doesn't like sweets and he ate half the pan before the day was over. I made more and played with it adding a cup of peanut butter chips with 2 cups of chocolate chips. I also made one with nuts and added marshmallow fluff.
