MAGIC COOKIE BARS


This Eagle Brand bar cookie was an old favourite when our kids were growing up. It's quick to prepare and chocolaty. Even those who don’t normally get excited about coconut will love these cookies. They are best with large flakes of coconut and with roughly chopped walnuts. If you use a food processor, chop the nuts with short spurts of pulse action. Use only sweetened condensed milk, the type of canned milk that is thick and syrupy. These bars are nice warm, but for best presentation and flavour serve them the following day if you can stand the wait.

It began with posting a few recipes on line for the family. "zsuzsa is in the kitchen" has more than 1000 Hungarian and International recipes. What started out as a private project turned into a well visited blog. The number of visitors long passed the two million mark. I organized the recipes into an on-line cookbook. On top of the page click on "ZSUZSA'S COOKBOOK". From there click on any of the chapters to access the recipes. For the archive just scroll to the bottom of the page. I am not profiting from my blog, so visitors are not harassed with advertising or flashy gadgets. The recipes are not broken up with photos at every step. Where needed the photos are placed following the recipe. Feel free to cut and paste my recipes for your own use. Publication is permitted as long as it is in your own words and with your own photographs. However, I would ask you for an acknowledgement and link-back to my blog. Happy cooking!
