CONGO SQUARES
This recipe was given to me nearly 50 years ago, at a company picnic, and it's our family's favorite dessert. Now my grandchildren bake it for their families. When each of our three sons got serious about a girl, sure enough, I'd get a call from a young lady requesting "his favorite dish". I always gave the girls this recipe.

Mom made these when we were kids in the '60s. I loved learning to measure and helping mom. Loved smelling them baking, but mostly loved eating them!
