RETRO BING BARS
This is a homemade version of the Twin Bing® candy bars from the 60s. They are rich and sweet and a small piece is a nice treat. These really are like candy, so cut in small pieces. A 1-inch square is sufficient! Store in a cool place in an airtight container, separating layers with waxed paper.

RETRO SCHOOL CAFETERIA PEANUT BUTTER BARS
It's taken me a while to find this recipe. There are many versions of "the peanut butter bar" but, I believe this recipe comes the closest to what I remember eating in the 1960's (via our elementary school lunchroom). Boy those ladies could really cook back then!

Tips:
- Prepare ahead: Bing Bars can be made up to 24 hours in advance. This makes them a great option for parties or potlucks.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your Bing Bars will taste. Use fresh fruit, pure vanilla extract, and real cream.
- Chill thoroughly: Bing Bars need to be chilled for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This helps them set up and become firm.
- Dip in chocolate: For a richer flavor, dip the Bing Bars in melted chocolate before serving. You can also roll them in chopped nuts, sprinkles, or crushed cookies.
- Serve immediately: Bing Bars are best served immediately after they are made. They will start to melt if they are left out at room temperature for too long.
