My mom made these bars all the time. They were one of her favorites. They're one of mine too. They are really a cross between a bar and a cake, making them really versatile.
I have no idea where my mom got this recipe, but guess that it was from either the newspaper or one of her sisters in South Dakota (funny, I do the same thing). Hope you give these a try!
