Welcome back!
Last night I felt like making a sweet treat I could share. So, I whipped up some Carmelita bars, and they are ready for delivery today. I had one little one for a morning treat. A little taste for the cook, right?
(A few recipes follow.)
Notes: I’m not a fan of having to melt caramel candies, so just get a good jar of caramel (or make it yourself) and add flour to thicken. I also prefer pecans to walnuts. It reminds me of pecan pie. Also, make sure you allow them to cool in the pan completely (or overnight). I pulled it out of the pan the first time… NOT pretty. ;)
Recipes:
Carmelita Bars (Better Homes & Gardens) (This is the recipe I used. I’m going to play with it a bit more in the future, namely with the crust in the recipe above!)
