[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 551583, member: 1723"] One special treat my Mom would make occasionally when I was a kid would be something like this - In a square baking pan, layer graham cracker crumbs on the bottom. I think she may have added some melted butter to this as a binder first. It was then pressed as flat as possible to a thickness of 1/4" or so. Next was a thick layer of sweetened shredded coconut, say about 3/4" thick. Finally there was a thick layer of melted semi-sweet chocolate poured over the top. She would also make a version with melted caramel. This would then go into the fridge to set up before cutting into squares. I think she called it crunch bars. I've tried to make it several times but it always came up short of my expectations, and I never really knew how she made it. In any case I rarely eat sweets anymore. Cheers, RR [/QUOTE]
