Canadian Three Layer Bars Recipe

	Krumkake / All my dishes 2 years, 3 months ago I could never figure out why my mother called these Canadian Brownies - until my daughter and family moved to Detroit. On a visit, we wondered into a chain called Hortons, and there in the bakery case was an "International Bar"...it looked strangely... More Prep:30m Servings:18	Krumkake
	creamy chocolate vanilla coconut layers of goodness

Does this look good? Yeah! / Nope

Ingredients

First layer:

½ cup butter, softened

5 tablespoons white sugar

4 tablespoons baking cocoa

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1 cup coconut

Second layer:

4 tablespoons butter, softened

2 tablespoons cook and serve vanilla pudding mix (NOT INSTANT PUDDING mix)

3 tablespoons milk

2 cups powdered sugar

Chocolate Frosting:

6 tablespoons milk

6 tablespoons butter

1½ cups white sugar

½ cup milk chocolate or sem-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

For first layer, hand mix ½ cup butter, white sugar, cocoa, egg and extract until fluffy.

Stir in graham cracker crumbs and coconut.

Press into an ungreased 7x11 pan; cover and refrigerate 1 hour.

For second layer, mix 4 tablespoons butter, the dry pudding mix, milk, and powdered sugar until fluffy; spread over chilled crust and refrigerate 1 hour.

To make the frosting, bring milk, butter and sugar to a gentle boil in a medium saucepan; boil an additional 30 seconds.

Remove pan from heat and stir in chips; stir vigorously until chips melt and frosting becomes shiny.

Cool frosting to room temperature; pour over second layer.

Chill well before cutting; keep refrigerated.

Ok, you both will have to share the Nanaimo bar recipe - is it Canadian also? jo_jo, I've only been to Horton's the one time, but the International Bars were definitely a winner!

Nanaimo Bars are wonderful. I messed up my first batch so badly, my Canadian friends had a good laugh at my expense. This looks like something the skating club would devour next event. Bookmarked and saved. Those kids can do some damage serious skating after some of these.
