This recipe is from my wonderful sister-in-law, Karol. She is a farm girl and knows how to cook. The first time I had them was at a reunion. I have to admit I was a little skeptical about these bars but after having them, they were very good. Didn't even know there was bean in the bars. When you make it, don't tell your friend what they are eating and see what they say.
