I have been making these for years from a hand written recipe card, probably from a friend. I could not find the recipe anywhere and panicked! I found the exact recipe on this website and was ecstatic! It is a wonderful recipe. Very rich, but that's o.k. If you take it to a party, bring the recipe because I guarantee you will be asked for it. I real winner!<br/><br/>Tina, Washington(state) -
HUGE hit! Although a little too rich for some of the guests (even IF they had more than one!) GREAT RECIPE! Different from what I've had before in the crunchy bar crusts and I enjoyed the flakiness of it!

I am retired and living in central Florida. I am in the process of becoming a Master Chef (but have a long way to go!). Christmas has emphasized my pet peeve..i.e., waiting in lines.
