Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and cut into bars. Makes one dozen.

From the Inside Flap

I love your cookbooks! What fun to sit and read not only the recipes but the stories behind them. Most of the recipes are made with things I already have in my cupboards and would be willing to cook and serve to my family. Thank you for many hours of enjoyable reading, cooking and eating, of course!

I recently purchased your Gooseberry Patch Christmas Books #2 and #3...they are incredible! I am getting together with a few family members and friends to create some of your crafts. I am so excited for the gift-giving season now that I found out about your company. Keep those awesome ideas coming!

This review is from: Gifts for Giving: Gift Mixes & Delights from the Kitchen, Plus Year Round Ideas for Wrapping It Up & Giving (Gooseberry Patch) (Plastic Comb)
The recipes are great. I like the idea of the vanilla powder, which I had never heard of before. I also love all the little hints for presentation which are found throughout the book. Great way to make affordable gifts for teachers, neighbors and friends.
