Great recipe! Very easy and sooo good! Even my picky 3yr old grandson went back for more! That says a lot when he likes something! Thank you!

This is a great recipe, especially warmed and served with ice cream. I sprinkled a little cinnamon on top.

This recipe looks delightful. I would love to try it except for one thing…Maybe I shouldn’t be so shocked, but are you sure it is one full pound of brown sugar? That is an entire box! Please tell me it isn’t so! =]

I think I’ll make these soon…and maybe add white chocolate chips and coconut to the mix! Mmmm

Oh my ~ these took me back to elementary school and in such a good way!! I remember having these about twice a month, if we were lucky, in our wonderful cafeteria lunches. Thanks so much for such a great recipe, and wonderful memory!!

This recipe looks the same as one I found in a Better Homes and Garden magazine in our outhouse back in the 50’s. That one was called Congo Squares, and the only difference I can see is that the recipe I found said to melt the butter. This recipe became our family favorite the very next day, and I still make it now! The bar is like a blonde brownie, sort of. If you bake them a bit too long, they turn into “dunkers”.

I just posted a recipe for Chinese Chews on my blog a few weeks ago. I have no idea where the name comes from either, especially since my recipe includes coconut. Sadly, mine only makes an 8X8 pan…
