Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

I have made this recipe many, many times. Everyone loves them. I have requests for them. I had always followed the recipe exactly with the exception of adding some corn starch to the berry filling. Last wkend I had 3cups of berries so I increased all the other ingredients proportionately. I cut them into about 1" squares. Always a hit. Word has spread of how good these are, they are now what everyone wants me to bring to social gatherings. The difficulty rating is a 3 but I would put it more of maybe a 2 and only an hour to make, start to finish. Try & ENJOY!

I was trying to make a quick and easy bar for breakfast, when I came across this recipe on the Internet. It wasn't really quick, but I had all the ingredients necessary to make it, so I thought, "What the heck? I'll give it a try!" The directions were relatively easy to follow. In adding the lemon juice of the filling, I accidentally added 1 tablespoon too many; however, the end result was delicious! I am a baker who sells my products to several businesses around the area, and I'm definitely going to be selling this bar! The only thing I can say to anyone that's planning to make this recipe is to grease the pan. I made the mistake of following the recipe and putting the bar in an ungreased pan, and it didn't come out as I'd like. My recommendation (as a baker) is to grease the pan, then put a baking sheet in, to ensure it comes out correctly!
