You are so right! We are all about some chess squares here in Mississippi! I've made them with every variations under the sun, but I still think this recipe is the best!
Many blessings!
Oh those are always good and I saw them on Facebook. I bet people have been drooling all day long looking at them.

Oooooo! I love these! I can eat half a pan all by myself with a glass of milk when they come out of the oven. Yes, ma'am!
I don't think I have ever had these but they sound easy enough! Thanks for sharing.
These are such a favorite! I teach high school and have one class I keep the same kids in for 4 years. In this class, this is what we make for special celebrations. The recipe is handed down from the seniors to the juniors at our graduation party. They LOVE it.
