    Ugh….I hate phones to type with. You make so many errors!! It should say:

    First time to this site and I found a ton of cool ideas!! For a fun twist to this Almond Joy® idea why not make it Mounds®? You can change the cake mix to devil’s food and use semi-sweet chocolate chips and scrap the almonds. This is for the one who loves chocolate and hates nuts or just wants a change.
