Recipe Tips

To make cutting the bars easier, you can line the baking dish with parchment paper before greasing it. This will make it easier to lift the bars out of the dish once they have set. If you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months. Just be sure to wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before putting them in the freezer.
