Nanaimo bar recipe

Nanaimo bars

This recipe came to me by my neighbor. Her sister in law made this for a party and when I tasted them, I just had to have the recipe! These are normally called, "Nanaimo" bars. But, when my son was little, he called them Nemo bars and it stuck! This recipe takes a few minutes to prepare, but you will not be sorry! The end result is a decedent and rich treat!
