I got this recipe years ago from my dear friend Pam. I recently found it while rummaging through my recipe file looking for something else. I'm so glad I noticed this recipe peeking out at me because this one truly tastes like the original Payday candy bar. If you're a nut lover (like me), you'll love this one and it will become a family favorite.
