Salted Caramel Flapjack Sensations
These sensational flapjacks really do taste great. Be careful not to eat too many. I recently received a promotional email from Costco which included something called Salted Caramel Sensations which looked very good indeed.

Millionaire’s Pecan Squares – Bars
I recently made some lovely pecan squares that tasted so good. So I wanted to try a little improvement, with the addition of some chocolate. Hence these Millionaire’s Pecan Squares, or Bars.

I found a great recipe on Allrecipes for Orange Pecan Pie. I am always unsure whether a pie should have a top crust as well, so I opted to call mine pie(or tart). I also made a change to the recipe on that site, since a reviewer seemed to imply the filling didn’t set. I also […]
