3-LAYER BARS
My mom got this recipe 30 years ago from a friend of hers who was from Australia. I don't know if this is an Australian dessert, I have heard that it is similar to a Canadian dessert called Nanaimo bars, though. This is a Christmas tradition in my family, but is wonderful anytime!

Steps:
- First Layer - Mix all ingredients together to form a crumbly mixture.
- Press into the bottom of a 9 x 13" pan, pressing firmly.
- Place pan in the freezer to set while preparing the next layer.
- Second Layer - Mix the first three ingredients together, using enough milk to make a stiff, frosting-like consistency.
- If desired, add a drop of yellow food coloring.
- Do not add too much milk, you want the mixture to be pretty stiff, but still spreadable.
- Remove the pan from the freezer and scrape the second layer onto the first, spreading as evenly as possible, and then using your hands to press down to smooth.
- Return pan to freezer.
- Third Layer - Melt the chocolate chips together with the butter. You can use a double boiler, but I have had good luck using a small saucepan and very low heat, with stirring.
- Remove the pan from the freezer.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the second layer.
- Working quickly (before the chocolate sets), spread the chocolate layer evenly.
- Return the pan to the freezer for no more than a few minutes. You want the chocolate to begin to set before you cut the bars - but if you wait too long, the chocolate will be too hard and you won't be able to cut through it without it breaking. The point at which the chocolate loses its shine and takes on a dull appearance is the right time to remove the pan from the freezer and cut into small squares.
- After cutting, return to the freezer to harden completely, then remove from the pan.
- Store in the refrigerator.

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter, or the brownies will be tough.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them.
- If you don't have chocolate chips, you can use chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even candy.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semisweet chocolate.
- If you want chewier brownies, use less flour.
- For a cakier brownie, use more flour.
- Add a pinch of salt to the batter to enhance the flavor of the chocolate.
- Use a toothpick to check the brownies for doneness. Insert the toothpick into the center of the brownies. If it comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, the brownies are done.
Conclusion:
Three-layer brownie goody bars are a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create a unique and unforgettable dessert that will impress your friends and family. These bars are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
