NOTES and TIPS!
-
We recommend when baking is done, allow it to cool completely and refrigerate it for a few hours or overnight before cutting into bars.
-
These bars are easier to cut after they have been chilled for a few hours. You can serve them frozen too. They are so good, chilled, or frozen.
-
To Freeze Bars, line an airtight container with wax or parchment paper. Place the bars in a single layer, and separate layers with a sheet of wax or parchment paper. Bars can be frozen for up to one month.
-
To Thaw Bars, simply arrange bars on a serving plate, and serve. They will thaw quickly, in less than 10 minutes.
