*To make cutting of these bars extra easy, line the baking pan with lightly greased heavy-duty aluminum foil, allowing several inches to extend over sides. After baking & chilling, freeze for several hours. Lift from pan using foil; press foil sides down, & cut while partially frozen into desired sizes & shapes.
