PINK ANGELS - A SQUARE RECIPE

Pink Angels - A Square Recipe image

These classic Canadian squares go by many names such as Pink Sin or Pink Ladies. After much debate, I decided to call mine Pink Angels since they're pink, devilishly sweet, and you have to beat the devil out of the icing.

PINK LADY SQUARES

This is another of our family favorites that makes for an excellent addition to the serving tray. Looks very appealing on the holiday platter and great for special occasions. I often substitute the graham crumbs with crushed Nillas. Just as good untinted - but as my mom reminds me " always make the icing using the juice from a real lemon" - realemon will work but she's right ... that lemon juice makes for awesome!

PINK PARTY SQUARES

Pink Party Squares image

This recipe was given to my Mother in law and it is one of those special always-at-the-holidays sweets. They are very sweet, so cutting them in very small squares is usually how we do it. I just guessed at the servings because it really depends on how you cut it.

Time 55m

Yield 25

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
½ cup butter
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups chocolate chips
1 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons maraschino cherry juice
1 (1 ounce) square semisweet chocolate, chopped

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8 inch square baking pan. In a medium bowl, stir together flour, white sugar, and cocoa powder. Cut in butter until the texture is mealy. Pat into the bottom of the prepared pan.
Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips. Cook, stirring frequently until chips are melted and the mixture is smooth. Pour over the baked crust.
Return to the oven, and bake for 15 minutes. Remove, and cool in the pan over a wire rack.
In a medium bowl, mix together the confectioners' sugar, butter, and cherry juice. Spread over the cooled filling in the pan. Melt semisweet chocolate in a small glass dish in the microwave, or in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. Place in a plastic bag or piping bag, cut the tip to 1/8 inch, and drizzle the chocolate over the bars in a back and forth motion to make stripes. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
