They smell SO good when they are baking
and they taste amazing.
and they taste amazing.
To me when my mom would make these up they were magic, delicious, and there was never a family outing, baby blessing, Baptism dinner, Christmas Party, or any other special occasion even that we attended that these yummy bars didn't grace the dessert table. These were what she was famous for.
Everyone was so excited to come to an event, just because they knew these would be there to enjoy.
These were even on the dessert trays for our wedding reception.
For years, I thought these were her own creation, because I never had them anywhere else, but as you grow up, you realize there are many people that have the same or similar recipes as you do.
Before I started making Cinnamon Roasted Almonds and Caramels for our Christmas goodie boxes, these
Seven Layer Goodie Bars along with Gumdrop Bread and other yummy things were what I would give our neighbors each year at Christmas Time.
If you want something that is SO easy and quick to throw together
that is out of this world delicious,
try making some of these today...they are
