I was going to re-name these bars but I couldn't come up with anything clever so I went with their Southern Living given name.  It works.



These bars came about as a result of me having everything but the condensed milk in my pantry thanks to some friends who gave me all their pantry items they couldn't take with them.  The condensed milk I got from my Mom's pantry- a place that is just waiting for power outages, earthquakes, and hurricanes.  You can guess where we would have ended up if the storms of a few weeks ago really got bad.



These are incredibly easy to make, and although Southern Living called for granny smith apples, I used some form of red apples because that's what I had...and they worked just fine.

I was able to give away almost half of the batch but there are still far too many sitting in our kitchen.  I will say I like taking a bite of them and then soon after feeling Anderson kick.  Does a Mamma's heart good.
