Scottish Bars

During the Retreat’s Friday evening dessert sharing, LeAnn Berkner from Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, brought these wonderful bars to share. She consented to let me share the recipe with you. We enjoyed a nice variety of goodies from many other states as well.

Scottish Bars

• 3 c. flour
• 1/2 c. sugar*
• 2 sticks butter (1 cup)

Cream butter and sugar, add flour and mix. Press into 9×13 pan. Bake at 350° for 30-40 min.

• 1 can – 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 c. sugar*
• 2 sticks butter (1 cup)

*Healthy Option: unrefined sugar (Sucanat or Rapadura)

Melt and boil the topping for 8 minutes, then beat so the butter doesn’t separate.
Pour over shortbread. Place 5 Hershey chocolate bars in pieces over hot topping. Allow to melt, then marble with a knife.

Oh my, no wonder they were so good! Thank you, LeeAnn.
