Sweet Marie Bars 1963 image

This used to be a favourite way back in 1963, quick to make and faster to eat. I baked a lot for customers then and looking at my recipe today in the side column is break down prices. It cost 1 cent to make each bar or balls, I always got 8 dozen balls from a recipe., so it was a good filler for my boxes. This recipe was a request so thats why I am only now posting it, as I am sure everyone has this already in their family recipes, just maybe forgotten. Enjoy. Serving size on recipe is estimated as every one cuts these different.
