Everyones favorite ’90s snack reinvented.
When dreaming up our perfect snack, we often go back to our childhood & what we most enjoyed then. After all, those were the days of not even knowing what a cavity was, not caring how we looked, & thinking sugar cured everything. Well–that last one I still somewhat believe! It was the same thought process that led us to create our dunkaroo cake, Lucky Charm pancakes, thin mint ice cream sandwiches, & so many others.
So now, sit back, relax, start baking & enjoy the memories that come flooding back with these bars!
