Two weeks ago was the last time that I had to bake for my church's Lenten Fish Fries. While I usually don't try new recipes for that occasion I decided to do so this - with the disclaimer that I would make two pans of the bars and keep one for taste testing. There is no taste testing involved in the ones that go to church this was my only way!
And the result? I think Gary is glad I made a pan for home! These bars are sweet yet tart - giving them a nice flavor. The perfect treat for the occasional non-chocolate lover you run into!
