EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Cut bars into triangles or diamonds for variety.

Shiny aluminum or gray, nonstick-coated metal pans are preferred for baking bars. Because heat is reflected, these pans prevent the crust from getting too brown and hard.

You can fix the font size yourself on your own computer. At the top of the screen, click on "View." In the drop-down box, click on "Text Size." Then, just click on a larger size than is already set in the drop-down box with the choices. Hope this helps!
