TOM THUMB BARS
As a non-fan of coconut and walnuts, in general, I was surprised to find that I LOVE this cookie bar. My step grandmother introduced them to my family and ever since, they've been a staple cookie in the "special holiday collection." Super easy to make and they don't taste coconut-y or like walnuts Just so delicious!

TOM THUMB COOKIE BARS
I am uncertain of the origin of the bar cookie recipe, but I know it was a favorite when I was growing up. My mom always used walnuts, but any nut that you choose would be good. They can also be made without nuts, if you prefer.
