Food for the Gods

by ivoryhut and filed in Brownies and Bars, Desserts, Special Occasion

Here is my version of these date and nut bars, known in the Philippines as “Food for the Gods.” They are a rich treat usually reserved for special occasions, with just the right amount of sweetness and packed with dates, walnuts, and pecans.

Take your cheesecake to the next level! Impress your friends—have a slice or two, and your friends suddenly become funny. Have another, then YOU become funny to THEM!

Meet Nancy

Nancy is the Coupon Clipping Cook, which means she not only has an astounding number of recipes to share with us (her TK recipe box is busting at the seams!) but she's also got loads of money-saving tips in her blog (she worked at a grocery store for a number of years, so she knows her stuff). She has some pretty amazing creations, like Roasted Garlic Potato Soup and Nutty Coconut Chicken. Go check them out!

Meet Heather

Heather is a Texas native and the blogger behind Heather's Dish. She's mom to Weston, wife to Nate, and they live in Little Rock, Arkansas with their two "stubborn and saucy" dogs Bunker and Keira. In her blog, she shares her photographs, random musings (serious and silly alike), and all kinds of scrumptious recipes---and not just evil variations of her favorite mac and cheese. Her enviable TK recipe box is a testament to that. Go see for yourself!
