This recipe has been a family favorite for about 40 years. Every time I make it I'm asked for the recipe. It the best recipe I have. Thanks for posting -
This recipe is OUTSTANDING!!! Granted, it takes a bit of work, but trust me when I say, "It's worth it!" I didn't have a jelly roll pan so used the largest pan I had and the bars came out YUMMY and GORGEOUS!!! Thanks so much, Nanny Annie. Please keep those recipes coming. Made for PAC 2007.
