"This recipe is one I found at all recipes but I altered it. My daughter is very picky and her class had a bake sale and she liked them. I searched for a recipe the same and found this one. I made it larger to fit a jelly roll pan as I like large recipes. Hope you like this too."

I'm sorry,Mandy,this recipe just didn't turn out well for me.The syrup for these squares seemed a little too buttery and seemed to lack the "stickiness" needed to hold it all together,even though I let it boil at least a minute.The chocolatey taste was good,though!!
