There is something magical that happens once you add Oreo cookies to Rice Krispies, marshmallows, and brown butter. I just had to come up with a recipe of my own so that I could recreate them any time I want.
These cheesecake squares are everything. They are creamy and silky, lemony and just the right amount of sweet. The raspberries and a little tart, but pair so well with the creaminess from the cheesecake.
Nanaimo bars are these creamy, delicious, chocolatey squares that originated in Nanaimo Canada - a small city located just north of Victoria on Vancouver Island.
Around my house, when things get busy and chaotic, we tend to rely a bit more on snack foods to get us by. Granola bars are something we turn to often, but not the packaged store-bought versions.
I am totally obsessed with Nanaimo bars. I could eat like a hundred and still not get sick of them. Once, during university, I made Nanaimo bars and ate the whole tray in one week. They are pretty easy to make. No baking involved. Just chilling.
These pumpkin pie bars are soft and tender, perfectly pumpkin-spiced, and so fun to make. They are a simplified version of pumpkin pie. They are easier to make, require less time, and you can eat them with your hands.
