Ingredients

  • 12 (3.3-ounce bag) Hershey’s Sugar Free Chocolate Candies, divided
  • 3/4 cup (1-1/2 sticks) butter, softened
  • 7 tablespoons sucralose, granular form (Splenda)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour

  2. Beat butter, sucralose and vanilla until well blended.
  3. Gradually beat in flour. (Dough will be crumbly, but moist.) Stir in chocolate pieces. Pat dough into pre- pared pan.
  4. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven; immediately cut into bars. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Remove bars from pan; place on sheet of waxed paper.
