My niece gave me this recipe. I have no idea as to where it originated. I made these bars today for the first time and took them to a family gathering and brought home an empty pan. The bars are chocked full of chocolate chips and maraschino cherries and are very moist. I would suggest using 1/2 of the chips the recipe calls for and maybe adding more cherries. They are Mmm Mmm good! I forgot to ice my party bars but they were plenty rich without the frosting. Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup shortening |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
3/4 cup milk |
12 ounces chocolate chips |
1 cup maraschino cherry |
Directions:
1. Sift flour, baking powder and salt.
2. Cream shortening and sugars.
3. Beat in eggs, add vanilla and beat until fluffy.
4. Add milk and dry ingredients alternately.
5. Stir in cherries and chocolate chips.
6. Pour into greased jelly roll pan.
7. Bake at 325°F for 24-30 minutes.
8. Frost with chocolate icing while warm.
