This recipe was given to me years ago and it was spelled Idiott Bars. I don't know why, I just make them, don't much care what they are called or how it is spelled.
Karen E. Nov 4, 2008, 12:53am EST
I think even I could do this...but then I always think that and have to sadly disappoint my grandkids.

This sounds very much like what we call seven-layer bars. If they are anything close they are DELICIOUS. Your recipe is definately a winner.

Another one I'm printing out and making for christmas, along with your soft ginger snaps.
Donna T. Nov 8, 2008, 12:45am EST
I'm going to post the best, easiest fudge recipe ever. You won't believe how good it is, and how easy it is. Everyone will ask for the recipe, and you almost hate to give it out, because you don't want them to know how easy it is.

Can I post fudge to your cookie group?
sharon SugarMomma is a wise woman, Nov 8, 2008, 12:57am EST
I have bookmarked these and will be making them for the dems Christmas party. There's a Christmas cookie bake off.

I think we have winner folks.
Carol B Nov 8, 2008, 6:44pm EST
Yes Donna, please post it. I include fudge with my cookies when I give them out for the holidays.
Lisa C. Nov 11, 2008, 3:51pm EST
