"Overall a great and tasty recipe. However, since I'm pregnant and also have small children, I was a bit leary about the eggs, since they never get cooked, so after I got the chocolate and egg mixture ..." See moreblended, I heated it to bubbling for a minute or two so the eggs would not be raw. I waited for it too cool off before adding the marshmallows and peanuts and then stuck it in the fridge. It took way more than 2 hours for it to cool (I had to leave them in the fridge overnight) but that could be because I cooked it a bit more. Once they finally hardened they were wonderful and I gave them out as Christmas gifts. :) I will try this recipe again, but maybe just omit the eggs next time, since they don't seem to serve any real purpose that I can see, anyway."
