APRICOT MUD HEN CAKE BARS
These mud hen bars have been in my family for generations. My maternal grandmother gave this recipe to my mother, who shared it with me. I've been told the name comes from the speckled meringue topping that resembles the coloring of hens. -Kristine Chayes, Smithtown, New York
