Made these up to take to a potluck here in the mobile home park, & they were [in my humble opinion!] the hit of the dessert table! People thought they were sooo small at first, but their richness makes up for size! Definitely a keeper recipe, & something I want to add to 'bars cookbook!' Thanks for the recipe!
