 Directly from the box of Baker's unsweetened chocolate.  So delicious!

I made this recipe 3 times in one week.  I had a few different reasons to bake and since the recipe book was still on the counter after the first time, it's quick and I had all the ingredients on hand.  In all cases they disappeared so fast I didn't get pictures.
I've found that the best recipes often come from the back of the package.  For example; my best chocolate chip cookies are from the chocolate chip package.  the best oatmeal cookies are from the recipe on the back of the oatmeal package.  When I saw the book "Hershey's Classic Recipes" I knew it would be a gooder.  I was right.  Every recipe I've tried from this book has been top notch.

Dark Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Cookie Bars - originally posted May 19/15

Some time ago I came upon this recipe.  Maybe Pinterest?  Someone's blog?  Facebook?  Honestly, I don't remember, but it caught my eye even though it has the word 'healthy' in the title.  It was the dark chocolate that hooked me as well as the unique method of mixing up the dough.  This morning it's cold in my apartment so I needed to bake something.  These are delicious!  Look at the ingredient list-they qualify as granola bars.

Nanaimo Bars

After years of using the nanaimo bar recipe I found from Crisco.  I modify it some, of course, but it's the one I use and it gets rave reviews.
I decided to try this recipe just to switch things up.

It got rave reviews by a small group of friends and I think it's better than the other recipe.

Raspberry Squares

Raspberry Squares are sweet, chewy and dead easy to make. No, there's no Irish Cream in this recipe, but I may have had a sip while baking.

Nanaimo Bars - old

I'm a foodie in general. I notice and know things about food and cooking that most people don't. If you've been following my blog, you probably are not surprised by this tidbit. Unlike many foodies I like to think of myself as very gracious. I may notice that you used a cake mix but I won't rat you out. Not only that, I'll enjoy it-some cake mixes are tasty.
However.

Lemon Bars

When it comes to Lemon Bars I am frequently disappointed because usually there is a distinct lack of lemony flavour. I like pucker power when it comes to Lemon Bars or lemon anything for that matter. That's why I took a classic Lemon Bar recipe and kicked it up a notch.
In Calgary, lemons are usually best in January, February and into the spring a little bit so make this recipe then.
