Crescent Layer Bars

"This simple to make recipe came from Pillsbury Annual Recipes 2008. It includes some of my favorites - cashews and of course....chocolate (both white and semisweet)! Bars like these that contain sweetened condensed milk can be stored at room temperature. I just made these bars this morning and have not actually tried them yet. but they look great & smell wonderful! Please let me know what you think..."

  1. Excellent bars. I used peanut butter chips as opposed to white chocolate chips because I don't like them. Otherwise, I didn't change a thing. They are chewy and sweet.
     
  2. This was a wonderful recipe. I changed it up by using peanut butter chips, dark chocolate chips and pecans instead of cashews. I also added coconut and toffee chips. My family finished them off in 20 mins and begged for more. They ask for them at least once every two weeks. Thanks again for the inspiration.
     
  3. These were really easy to make and taste fabulous. I think my husband has eaten about a third of them by himself this weekend! The nuts and crescent roll crust contrast nicely with the sweetness of the chocolate and condensed milk. I love the idea of using a tube of crescent rolls as a crust for dessert bars! Thanks. Made for Spring PAC '09
     
  4. Five stars all the way. Very nice looking and tasting. Took to a potluck at work and many requests for the recipe. The ease of fixing this makes it a repeat in my house. I could not find any vanilla chips so used all chocolate and it still turned out nicely. Thank you for posting and I'm anxious to try your other posts. Shirl
     
  5. We had this at a get together recently and it was really good and the recipe is so easy. They actually look and taste like an elaborate recipe.

<p>Hi! <br /><br />Orignally from Chicago, I now live in the sunny Phoenix&nbsp;with hubby, Tom, son, Justin and our dogs, Axel and Jhazmine and kitty, Muggles.&nbsp; <br /><br />I have a compulsion/obsession for cookbooks. My husband says we may have to build a wing onto the house...I have soooo many. I really do not have a favorite, although I do like the Taste of Home books because they contain recipes my family will actually eat. My passions are cooking great food for family and friends, music and traveling to warm, tropical places...oh and SHOPPING!</p>
