Layered Magic Bars

I remember these cookie bars back when I was young…  They were always around when we went to holiday parties!

I love making these during the holidays because they make a good amount… really you can cut them down to bite size pieces if you want!  They are rich enough to do that for sure!  They are also easy to put together with little mess to clean up!

Over the years I’ve tweaked this original recipe from Eagle Brand… I keep the basics in place but I switch up the goodies layering this yummy treat!

Try making this sweet treat for your next holiday gathering… You can feed lots and I promise you someones gonna be asking for the recipe!  😉

  1. We always called them ‘Hello Dollies’. I like that you’ve used almonds instead of walnuts or pecans.

  2. YUM! I remember these! I’ve heard of them referred to 7 Layers of Sin, but Magic Bars is such a fun and fitting name!
