I'm not normally a 'bar' person. I'm not sure why. My mother rarely made bars, preferring to bake cakes or pies whenever a dessert was called for. But Hubby is making a quick Mankato run to bring some documents to O (plus an old Xmas present we found while cleaning our closet - ha!) this afternoon, so I decided to bake something to share.
This is my go-to cookie cookbook. I've made several recipes from it, and haven't been disappointed yet.
I chose this recipe for Nanaimo bars. It seemed quick and easy, and we had all the ingredients on-hand.
It came out fairly well. It doesn't look exactly like the photo, however -- my top is rougher than theirs, thanks to the coconut. I did get distracted at the end of baking and left it in the oven a few minutes too long, so it's browner than it should be. But overall it tastes good, and that's what matters.
