Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute bittersweet chocolate for semisweet chocolate.

    These are very rich and sweet; a full piece cut to the size recommended in the recipe was almost too much. I used a mix of unsweetened and semisweet chocolate in the (delicious) coconut ganache topping, and I left some bigger chunks of graham crackers in the crumbs to add more texture to the base, which sort of worked, but they ended up softening over time anyway.

    This is more like fudge. I liked the spices and sesame oil in the peanut mixture.
