Pre - Prepared Items for even Faster Serving Times
These bars can be made a day ahead. Store in a
airtight container. |
Money Savers
To keep almonds fresh longer, seal them tightly in a
heavy plastic bag and store them in the freezer. There is no need to
thaw almonds before using them in the recipe. |
Serving Variation
To intensify the toffee taste, use butterscotch chips
instead of semisweet chocolate chips. |
