Notes Makes a lot, could really cut in half and 9 inch square pan unless you will be giving some away.

Can leave out nuts, can\\'t really taste them.

Cut into about 1/2 inch squares and put into candy papers. Made nice presentation.

Storage: In a single layer in airtight container in the refrigerator. For long storage, freeze them in an airtight container up to 3 months.
